As he releases me, I feel the urge to press my hands against his chest, to kiss his lips, and tell him how much I missed him last night, but I don’t.
I can’t…
“Is there something I can help you with this afternoon, Easton Rush?”
“I believe so,” he says. “I have a problem.”
“You only have one?”
“I wanted to see a certain someone last night.” He paused. “But her window was locked.”
“Was it?”
“Yes.” He narrows his eyes. “It was.”
“I guess I must’ve forgotten to leave it open.”
“You also ignored all ten of my calls.”
“You should’ve gotten the hint after the fifth one.”
“Why do you have to do this shit to me every week?” He gazes at my lips. “Does arguing with me every other day turn you on?”
“Even if it did—and itdoesn’t—it’s not like there’s anything you could do about it.”
He raises his eyebrow. “I’m coming over around seven tonight. I need you to leave the window open.”
“I might not be there.” I cross my arms. “I have a date.”
“With who?”
“A guy I can actually go out in public with,” I say. “He’s also in college, so he’s far more mature. He knows all about classical music and shit.”
“So do I, Scarlett.”
“Not likehedoes. He’s on another level than you.”
“He plays piano?”
“He does. Far better than you’ll ever be able to.”
A slow smirk crosses his lips as if he doesn’t believe a word I’m saying. He moves his head closer, nearly pressing it against my forehead, making my breath catch.
“Why do you keep wasting your time going out with these guys who aren’t me?” He loops a finger under my necklace, lifting the petal-shaped charm he gave me last month. “It’s not like you’re sleeping with them.”
“I’m not sleeping with you either.”
“Until you come to your senses.”
“Are you planning on asking my sister to join us, then?”
“I haven’t fucked your sister.” He looks offended. “You know better than that.”
“Doesshe?”
Silence.
“I don’t want her,” he says.
