“Yeah, well, I’m handling it.”

“I was just concerned. We are friends now. I think it’s safe to assume that, right?”

Feeling humiliated and remorse for my bite, I nodded. “Yes, we’re friends.”

I hated that he saw my weakness. I hated that was his first assumption. Even if it was an innocent question or asked out of concern, it stung.

More so, I hated that he would even think I could be intimate with anyone else.

“See you later?” he asked, pushing the hair off my forehead.

I met his gaze and saw nothing but warmth. “I’m sorry I’m on edge. Maybe I do feel a little weird about us sleeping together. It’s been a long time for me. And when I’ve done the casual hookup thing, I usually don’t see the person after.”

“No friends with benefits?” He grinned.

I grinned back. “You’re my first.”

He leaned in on a whisper. “You’re mine too. I was married forever, remember?”

“Really?”

“Really,” he said leaning in. “And I promise to make sure you benefit.”

Goosebumps trailed over my skin and I shrugged. “I don’t think I would hate it.”

He chuckled. “Are you free tonight? I’ll cook.”

I nodded, and he leaned in and pressed a promising kiss to my lips. “I look forward to it.”

I drove away cursing my stupidity.

“YOU WHAT!?”

Glaring at her, I put my purse in my desk drawer. “This is exactly why I didn’t tell you. Are those tears?” I laughed. “You are such an idiot.”

“I’m just so happy. You finally got laid.” She pulled me into her, pressing her huge boobs against my neck.

“Would you stop! I can’t believe you’re getting emotional because I had sex.”

“Come on, I’m taking you to breakfast.”

“No way, we have a full load today.”

“And I’ll take care of it. You’re getting the day off.”

“Jasmine, it’s Saturday. We have a shitload of houses to flip.”

“I’ve got them. Believe it or not, I did this all by myself before you came into the picture. I’m still the boss. Now get your purse and come on.”

“God, you act like I graduated college or something monumental. This is not a special occasion.”

“Did you orgasm?”

My face flushed.

“Oh, God. The man gave you multiples, didn’t he?”
