It’s on the tip of my tongue, but I bite it back.
He bends his knees, making it easier for me to see him.
Don’t sit.
Please don’t sit.
He sits.
I almost groan.
He looks past me to Mandy. “Good to see you.”
“Mmm,” she hums, not impressed, and I love her for it.
“I didn’t know you were back?”
“I’m not. Just visiting.”
Please go away.
I thought I’d feel something when I saw him again.
I search for it, but nothing.
No butterflies for those jade eyes, or fingers tingling with the want to run them through his shaggy blond hair.
Zilch.
The Greek god has ruined me.
“You really do look great.”
Still nothing.
“She does. She looks incredible.”
Here comes the darkest shadow of all, standing over me as the waves come in on his feet.
The circle pissing Adonis.
Mandy clears her throat to stifle her laugh while I die a little inside.
Do I introduce them?
I’m running out of everything else to say.
“Jake, this is Caleb. Caleb, this is Jake.”
“Your…” Caleb wonders, like he has any fucking right.
But my tongue still gets tangled around the words.
Because what is he?
My lips simply flap open and shut like a fish.
Jake crouches, knees wide with his elbows on his thighs, somehow looking bigger than he did standing, and doesn’t miss a beat when he says, “I’m her sugar daddy.”
