"I guess you had a rough night," he says, amused, while staring at my bare, bleeding feet, my heels in my hand, and my previous night's clothing. Not to mention, I'm sure my hair is a hot mess.
"Um, yeah, you could say that. I ended up crashing with someone I know after getting a little too drunk to make it home."
My embarrassment has to be radiating from me with a blinding glare.
"I see," he says with his adorable grin, while his soft, blond hair strums through the fingers of the gentle breeze.
He kneels down and examines my bleeding feet, making me self conscious because I feel so icky right now. I'm glad humans can't read auras. I'd be mortified if he was an aura reader.
"Have you got anything to clean that up with?" he asks while standing back up.
"Um, I'm sure I do. Don't worry about it."
"Let me come help you. You definitely don't want an infection since you said you have to stand on your feet at work."
Sighing, I nod. I really don't know the first thing about cleaning up a wound. I've always had an overprotective mother to do that for me.
"You sure you don't mind?" I ask while walking by him, noticing his house is directly beside mine.
Great. As if I need another guy clogging up my head.
"Positive, where do you live?"
I let out a laugh as he picks his mail back up.
"Right beside you."
He smirks, a menacing twinkle flashes in his eye, and then he stands to his feet to follow me.
"I guess I should bring you a cup of sugar or something sometime."
I chuckle lightly at his corny joke.
He's so tall, like Kane, but he's tanner, and his shoulder are a little broader. His hips are still seductively narrow, like the dark-haired man who I've now slept with but still haven't slept with.
This town shouldn't be allowed to have so much sex appeal. It's too small. If the humans are this hot, I dread seeing the immortals.
"Wow, this is really nice," he murmurs as he follows me in.
"Thanks," I murmur softly as we head inside, then I feel a little sad as I think back to Kane walking in here just a couple of nights ago.
"So, let's see your foot," he ushers
while motioning for me to sit down.
"It's both of them," I mumble while gripping my head in embarrassment.
"Should I ask why you felt it necessary to run home in broken shoes through the woods?"
I laugh bitterly while dropping my head back on the couch, and he gets up.
"Long story short, I didn't mean to spend the night with this person I know, so I snuck out while I could."
A knowing grin falls over his lips, and he bobs his head in a nod.
"Ah, one of those friends. Been there. So where's the alcohol, Band-Aids, and stuff like that?"
Not really one of those friends.
