I scanned the row of stores. What the hell did you buy an eighteen-year-old girl for her birthday? Usually, I bought my niece a gift card for her favorite store or tucked fifty dollars into her card. But Peyton wasn’t my niece, she was my girl.
I’d never done this before though, bought a girl gifts in an attempt to show my affection. Part of me almost wished Bryan hadn’t left so quickly, I bet he would know what to get her.
Irritation zipped up my spine. I could do this. It didn’t have to be anything elaborate or expensive, just a small token to show her that I was serious about this. About us.
Not that any token would ever do justice to how deeply she’d buried herself under my skin.
“Think,” I muttered to myself, “think, idiot.”
How hard could it be to pick something out for the girl who had barreled into my life and refused to leave?
The girl I’d hopelessly fallen for.
