CHAPTER FIFTEEN

Danny

I drop Mira off at her apartment and refuse her invitation to come inside. I really need some time to think.

Everything was in place. Mira was waiting and wanting, I assumed. When my cock brushed against her heat, that’s exactly what I felt; a hot and wet Mira yearning for me. It was her heart, though, that was saying otherwise. I could see in her eyes she was having second thoughts, which was relieving to me. Physically, I could have taken her right then and it would have been amazing; my own heart caused my turmoil.

I felt like it was a betrayal of some kind. I just don’t know if that betrayal is to Skylar or Melissa. Either way, I need to figure out what my problem is.

Instead of going right back to the house, I decide to go for a drive to clear my head. After about an hour of driving, I have no resolution. It’s going to take more than sixty minutes to determine my and Mira’s fate as a couple.

When I get home, Skylar’s in the living room watching something on TV. He waives his hand in the air when he hears the front door close but doesn’t turn around to see who just entered.

“Hey, Sky.”

Again, no verbal response, but he nods. What the fuck is wrong with him?

“Earth to Sky. I know this commercial you’re watching hasn’t taken your entire attention span, bro.”

“I’m just not in the mood to talk. Nothing personal.” Skylar stands and walks into the kitchen. He grabs a beer and sits down in the exact same spot he was before. The commercial bleeds into one of those World’s Dumbest shows. Until Skylar’s ready to talk, I get comfortable and watch the show with him.

After four consecutive episodes of the same type of show, I’m getting annoyed that he’s not even telling me what’s bothering him.

“Dude, something’s going on with you. You’re never this quiet.”

“I don’t want to talk about it because I have no input in the matter. I’m not in a good mood because of something I have no control over. I am not going to share because it doesn’t concern you. It’s my problem to deal with in my way. Please, just drop the subject.” Skylar’s obviously had enough of my questioning since he’s walking to his bedroom, slamming the door when he enters.

The rest of the week goes pretty much the same, other than we both go to work. I check in with Mira on Monday to see if she went to the University Alumni Services. She did and she has a few potential employers to send resumes to.

Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday I end up working late, not leaving much time to deal with Skylar and his internal drama. I place a call to the dry cleaner to make sure that my suit will be ready for pickup on Friday afternoon. I know people said that life after college is no cake walk, but I didn’t expect it to be this monotonous.
