Chapter Fifteen
Aswewalkinto Putters, Titus puts his hand against my lower back, the heat from it spreads around my waist. It stays there as we walk over and decide what we are going to eat.
"Their pizza is actually really good."
"Oh, yeah? Is that what you're going to get?"
"Yeah, and a cherry slushie."
He nods his head, then steps up to the counter and gives the guy our order.
"He said it will be just a couple of minutes. Want to find us a spot to sit?"
"Sure."
I scan the room, looking for an open table, but something or someone else catches my eye. My heart starts racing as I stare at the man standing on the other side of the glass. He has a putter in hand and tiny, cute blonde next to him.
Night.
I shake my head slowly, then look toward Titus. He turns with our food but cocks his head when he sees me. He puts the tray on the table I happened to stop next to, then dips his head down to look me in the eyes.
"What's wrong?" his hands wrap around my wrist, stopping me from fidgeting with my rings. "Hey, talk to me."
"He's here."
His brows pinch together. "Who's here?"
"The guy that ghosted me."
I didn't even get the entire sentence out before his face shifted from worry to anger, and his grip tightens slightly. He looks up, his eyes searching.
"Where is he?"
"Outside. The tall redhead. There's a blonde girl next to him."
His head turns quickly, and I swear I hear a low growl in his chest. I see his jaw clench as he watches the two of them.
"We don't have to stay," he says as he turns back to me.
Part of me really wants to leave, but I have been looking forward to this all week. Maybe if we eat slow enough, Night will be done before we go out there.
"No, I don't want to let him ruin our date. He isn't worth it."
He nods, then lets go of my wrist, and we sit to eat. I see him glance over every so often, but I try not to follow his gaze. That is, until we are done, and he takes the tray to the trash.
But I don't see Night or his date.
This time when Titus comes over to me, his hand slips in mine, lacing our fingers together. Then he leans over and places a gentle kiss on the side of my head.
"Let's go." His voice is deep next to my ear. I nod my head.
After we go outside and get our clubs, we round the corner to the first hole. I stop in my tracks and pull in a deep breath. Titus's arm immediately snakes around my waist, and he pulls me to him.
Night turns around, and when his eyes find me, they grow wide, and he gets an 'oh shit' look on his face. He turns to his date, puts his hand up, and then walks towards us.
"Uh, hi, Piper. Fancy seeing you here."
Titus's fingers dig into my side as he pulls me back slightly. Then he puts his hand out to Night.
