“What does Rylan Greene want?” Brinley asks.
“Nothing, he’s just going to help with the pictures.”
“Oh. That’s nice, but I bet he’s really trying to get in your pants.”
“Brinley!” I throw my trash at her and she laughs.
“What? You’re hot. He knows what he lost. Pull down the shirt a little, maybe take the bra off.”
“I’m not trying to sleep with him,” I say.
“Why not? You said he was the best you’ve ever had.” “I didn’t have a ton to compare him to.”
“I bet he has a lot to compare you to now.”
I stand. “We don’t know that. The gossip blogs lie.”
Although they report that Rylan gets around, that he has a woman in every city, I don’t believe it. Even if that makes me naive.
“He did always have eyes for you.” She hits my shoulder with hers.
We reach our building on Main Street and she’s headed for the door while I’m going to my car.
“What will you do today?” I ask.
She stops and gives me that expression I read as “I’m not your responsibility.”
“I guess it’s Uncle Denver and Aunt Cleo’s turn to keep me occupied because I’m going over to teach the twins how to braid hair. Cleo’s idea.” She rolls her eyes. “One day, someone will forget their turn in the rotation of ‘let’s keep Brinley occupied.’ It’s like everyone thinks that one day, Sawyer will just leave my mind like he never existed.”
I hug her. “We’re all just trying to help.”
She nods, but I hear the shudder in her breath from stopping herself from crying. “I know. Now go play, and if you’re not getting anything out of the deal, at least get sex.”
We laugh, and I walk to my car as she goes through the door.
I start the car and send Rylan a text message.
I’ll be there in fifteen.
I’m already here.
Damn, he’s fast.
I find myself in the cabin’s driveway in ten minutes. He climbs out of his car, smirk in place.
I should’ve made him wait thirty.
Fifteen
Rylan
My eyes need a break after staring at these pictures for hours. Thankfully, we’re almost done. I stand and stretch. Calista looks up and inhales deeply. I look down and see my shirt has risen, showing off my happy trail disappearing into my jeans.
I hold out my hand, and she stares at it. “Let’s go explore.”
“Explore what?” Her eyebrows rise.
I shake my head. “Dirty mind.” I put my hand out closer to her.
