“Not end of story!” I cried. “Tell me everything!”
“No, you PITA. Go the fuck to sleep and leave me alone.”
“Or what?” I goaded him.
He groaned and got up from the couch. “Goodnight, Gemma!”
“No! Tell me!” I begged.
“You’re so annoying!” he growled.
“Don’t be a grumpy bear. That’s Nolan’s role. Is that why you’re so uptight? You’ve gotten laid since her, right?”
He stared me down. “Of course I’ve gotten laid since then, but none of them have ever mattered to me. No spark or connection. It doesn’t matter.”
“Why not?”
He rubbed a hand across his jaw. “It just doesn’t, Gem. Go to sleep.”
“Night jerkface!”
I watched him give me the finger as he went into his bedroom.
I snickered to myself at his reaction. I drank more of my water and lay on Declan’s couch, staring up at his ceiling. I must have been drunker than I thought if he had brought me here. Getting drunk alone in town was a bad idea. I should have done it in the comfort of my bedroom. At least Declan had central A/C in his tiny apartment. I don’t know how he got so lucky with that. My apartment was always hot as balls.
I tried to go to sleep, but my mind was racing. I stared at my phone, but it hit me with the image of the background of me and Felix. I had changed it to the picture of us on the lake and never changed it when I came back to Drakesville. I was in that obnoxious hot pink bikini, and he was shirtless. He looked so hot, showing off his sleeve tattoos on the lake.
UGH! I shouldn’t be thinking about him! I was mad at him for breaking my heart again. But I couldn’t help how I still felt about him. And that sucked even more.
I felt the tears slide down my face. I’d blame it on being a drunken hot mess, but it had been three days since Felix left me alone at the cabin and I was still crying myself to sleep every night. I should have walked out and drove home the moment I found Felix at my dad’s cabin. I should have never gotten involved with him in the first place. I shouldn’t have let him break my heart again.
