“One just did.”

“Favorite day of the week, Riley Park?”

I laugh. “Sunday.”

“Same. Favorite food?”

“I have two—tacos and pizza.”

He chuckles. “Fried spring rolls and dumplings, and real tacos, not that Taco Bell shit.”

I throw out movie at the same time as he asks, “Sexual position?”

“My ex was a virgin.”

She wraps her arms around herself as her brows knit together. “I mean, so were you at one point.”

I suck in my lips so I don’t laugh, and she rolls her eyes.

“As I was saying, my ex was a virgin, and so was I. It didn’t mean shit to me. I wanted to get off inside of something other than a mouth. And when I did, I was sure I was in love with her. Told her I was. I know damn well I wasn’t in love with her, or I wouldn’t have cheated on her. Just like you weren’t in love with your ex.”

“Never said I was,” she says, glancing at the door.

“You thinking of leaving?”

“Maybe.”
