It makes sense.
A lot of sense.
"You have to tell her eventually," she says. "And the longer you wait, the worse it will be."

ChapterThirty-Six
PATRICK
Luna doesn't force me to answer, but we both know the truth.
I can only stop reading Imogen's site for so long. I need her words, her honesty, her intimacy.
And I need to do right by her.
Which only leaves one option, the option that might ruin everything.
After I say goodbye, I walk home and avoid Imogen's entry all night.
I toss and turn, but I make it through the night without giving in to temptation.
All day, my fingers itch to open my phone, read the site, let her words pour over me.
All day, I resist.
I focus on the one thing that makes sense, the one way I absolutely know how to do right by her.
Sex.
Patrick: I want another round on the balcony.
Imogen: The same balcony?
Patrick: No. Different place, same idea. If you're game.
Imogen: Ready when you are.
Patrick: Thursday. I'll pick you up. Take you out.
Imogen: Take me where?
Patrick: It's a surprise.
Imogen: What's the dress code?
Patrick: Anything.
Imogen: Really? Sweats.
Patrick: Casual to dressy. Outside. Bring a sweater. And a swimsuit.
Imogen: I'm intrigued.
Patrick: Perfect.
