“You haven’t dated anyone since she left.”
“Goodbye, Paul.”
“If it’s not Georgia, and the woman hasn’t sent me an additional seven thousand dollars by the end of the day, I’m reporting her to the app.”
I hang up in his face and send him a text.
It is Georgia…Talk when we get back.
Paul
In that case, don’t come back. Ever.
Before I can tellhim to go fuck himself, the bathroom door creaks open. Georgia steps out, her cheeks flushed red.
“You moped when I was gone?” she asked. “Is that what your friend just said on the phone?”
“I have no idea what you’re talking about,” I say. “You’re hearing things.”
“Am I?”
“Yes.” I smile and pull her closer to me. “I wasn’t even on the phone.”
“Why didn’t you ask me out?”
“Because you would’ve said no.” I tilt her chin up with my fingertips. “And you were taken.”
“I would’ve said yes,” she says. “As long as you offered me a raise.”
“Of course.” I laugh, kissing her lips. “What time do you have to start your final holiday shift?”
“I’m still off. Why?”
“Because last time I checked, you still owe me a few dates.” I look into her eyes. “We have a standing reservation at the ski slope, and then I want to see if we can break yesterday’s orgasm record.”
“Do we have to do those things in order?”
“Not unless you want to.”
“I’d like to break the orgasm record first.”
“Good decision.” I push her onto the bed.

GEORGIA
Idon’t want you to leave…
Those six words are trapped under my tongue the morning that Dominic is due to return to Utah. They nearly tumble out when he gives me one last orgasm in the shower, but all I can do is scream his name against the glass.
He kisses me while we dress, and he insists that we make sure we’re no longer needed in the kitchen before we leave.
“I would never ask you to help on your last day.” Grandma Hattie walks over to hug him the moment we enter the room. “But I will ask you to come back next season, if you’re available.”
“I’m sure I’ll be back before then.”
