Chapter 20

We were barely even twenty steps away from the doctor’s office when we found yet another vending machine. As a caffeine addict, I simply couldn’t resist slotting in a few coins. While I was fumbling in my pockets, Wesley stood to one side, his hands tucked into the pockets of his jeans as he rocked on his foot.

“Avery, I’ve been meaning to tell you something.”

“What is it?” I asked, attention still fixed on slotting in the coins. Waiting patiently for my drink to finish preparing, I turned to face Wesley with slight difficulty, pivoting on my good leg to smile at him. When I saw Wesley’s crestfallen face, I felt my heart sink even though I didn’t know what he was about to say. “Are you leaving California again? Or you have an illness you can’t tell me about? What is it? Why do you look so sad?”

Wesley paused, shaking his head. His tongue darted out to wet the bottom of his lip, his eyes looking anywhere but me. “No, that’s not it.”

“Then what is it?”

Wesley took my hands in his own. “I like you, Avery. More than normal and more than just as friends.”

At that moment, I did the worst possible thing I could’ve ever done. I laughed.

I had not been with many guys actually, contrary to many peoples’ belief. I had honestly dated one guy, and that one guy as you all know was none other than Blake Ryder. I had the biggest crush on him long ago, and I didn’t really see myself with anyone else other than him, you know? There’s always this one guy that you’ll picture your future with—getting engaged, married, and starting a family with him. I thought that one guy for me was Blake.

Fate proved me wrong, though.

Apparently, Destiny didn’t think I was the perfect match for Blake, and she sent a dream-crusher called Charlotte Brooke to steal the man of my dreams then. Thank heavens she did. If everything didn’t happen the way it did, I wouldn’t be there with Wesley holding my hands and looking at me with so much sincerity that even the cheesiest romance novel characters would puke their guts out, all while a cheap cup of piping hot coffee was waiting for me in the vending machine.

I swear when the person you have feelings for holds your hand and asks you out, you will immediately, and I mean immediately, melt into a puddle while screaming yes to the heavens. But what made this different? It’s that not only was Wesley Jerald fucking gorgeous, he was also the current Prince Charming on a Harley in my dreams, and he was also my best friend.

This made things so much more difficult.

Why, you ask? Well, to answer your question, look what happened between Blake and me. One Charlotte came into our lives like an unstoppable hurricane, and not only did we split, we also stopped being friends. That guy then hated my guts so much that he thought it was okay to just let me die from a shortage of blood.
