My world implodes as I watch Lily flee the scene as fast as she can—and there’s not one damn thing I can do to stop her.
She needs time to think.
Of course, she does.
I just rocked the foundation of what she believed she was capable of. I could see it in the shock and horror in her eyes.
She may have wanted that kiss as much as I did—but she’s the only one whose life could be destroyed because of it.
How things went sideways so fast is beyond me.
I’ve got emotional whiplash if I’m completely honest.
Nothing in the world has ever felt as good as that kiss.
But thanks to my inability to keep my lips to myself and Cal’s shit timing, I may have just pushed Lily over the edge.
Why the fuck didn’t I learn from the last time?
We didn’t even kiss and all hell broke loose.
What did I think was going to happen?
You wanted to show her how desirable she really is.
Lot of good that did.
“Fuck,” I groan, slamming my eyes shut.
For the longest time, I stare out over the edge of the rooftop, watching the last tendrils of light fade beyond the horizon. When the sun has finally vanished, I take a deep breath and turn toward the elevator.
There’s no point in staying here.
I’m not going to be any good to the club tonight.
Before I reach the elevator doors, my phone buzzes in my pocket and my heart nearly trips over itself with the hope that it’s Lily.
Hey biotch. I’ve had to deal with my mother and grandmother for the past two weeks. It’s been hell. HELL, I tell you. I need to hang out with someone who doesn’t have a vagina. You in?
I stare at the text message, totally confused. The number doesn’t have a contact attached to it.
Is this some sort of drunken text to a wrong number?
Out of sheer morbid curiosity, I type back my response.
Who is this?
The bubbles appear and a second later, the response comes in.
What do you mean who is this? Who else would call you biotch?
Sorry, that was snippy. See what I mean?
Also, it’s Quinn, FFS. ?? And before you ask, Lily gave me your contact info ages ago.
I can’t help it, I shake my head and snort a laugh.
Of course, it’s Quinn.
