“Nice to meet you too,” she squeaks like a mouse.
Oh boy.
“When did you get here?” I ask Blair.
“About an hour ago or so.” Blair brings the glass, that I just notice she’s clutching, to her lips, sipping from the skinny black straw. “It’s packed tonight.”
“It’s crowded every night,” I say, glancing around the busy bar. Everyone comes to Logan’s. They have the best drink specials and they’re not too strict when it comes to the fake-ID situation. This is why Ace is having the time of his life tonight.
Cheyenne touches Blair’s shoulder. “I’ll be right back.”
We both watch her go, silent for a moment, Blair continuously sipping from her straw, which is giving me all sorts of thoughts I shouldn’t be thinking. Like how good her lips would look wrapped around something…
Thicker. And attached to my body.
Shit. I need to say something. Maybe even make a move, but Knox’s face is suddenly looming in my mind, reminding me of what he’ll do to me if he finds out I was talking to his sister while thinking all these pervy thoughts, which keeps me silent.
“I was hoping I’d run into you here,” Blair finally says, shocking me.
“You were?”
She nods, her cheeks pinker than normal. “Yeah.”
“Why?”
She blinks, seeming at a loss until she says, “I forgot to tell you earlier when I ran into you at the library.”
“You forgot to tell me what?”
“I had a dream last night and you were in it.” She says the words all at once, so they sort of run into each other, and it takes me an extra couple of seconds for my brain to compute.
“Oh yeah?”
“Yeah.” Her voice is a whispered rasp. “Yep. Yes.”
“Well, what happened?” I’m curious. Now this girl is dreaming about me?
That’s promising.
“What do you mean?”
“What happened in your dream? What did we do?” I pause, giving in to my curiosity. “Did I do something to you?”
I can think of about a bazillion things I’d like to do to her in my dreams. And my reality.
“Oh…” her voice fades, and she swallows hard. “You were, uh, chasing me across a football field.”
“No shit?” I don’t know if I believe her. Maybe she’s just saying this to make conversation.
“Weird right?” She laughs nervously. “I don’t know why you were in my dream.”
If she wasn’t Knox’s sister, I would take the opportunity to explain that I’m in her thoughts because she’s into me, but I keep those observations to myself simply because of her last name.
But then I go ahead and do it anyway.
“Can’t stop thinking about me, huh?” I raise my brows, pissed at myself for even bringing it up.
I shouldn’t carry on this conversation with Blair, but it’s like I can’t help myself.
