"I didn't say you had to. But let’s keep out of each other's way?"
Dylan stops the arm rubbing and studies me with tired eyes. "If that's what you want."
"I made a mistake, Dylan. I just came out of a long relationship. I’m hurt, and I think that's what caused this...situation. I thought attention would make me feel better but it’s too soon. So you playing games with me hasn't helped."
Crap.Didn't I say I wouldn't talk to him? I have to leave this room before I say anything else.
"I'm not playing games..."
"I’m sorry, Dylan. Please. Let's forget all this. Enjoy your pizza."
Attempting to disguise my trembling hands by tucking them and the book beneath my arms, I do my best at stalking out of the room, and upstairs.

I'mnotthe heroine of a book where a sexy rock star falls for the confused, hurt girl and makes everything better with amazing sex and sweet words of undying love.
