Chapter 21 – Parker

Tuesday

“So, my words of warning did nothing to stop you then?” Buster smirked as he swung the golf club. He must have been so distracted by my situation because he somehow managed to completely miss the ball. What a fool! “This whole thing between you and Madison hasn’t stopped? Even though it’s an utterly terrible idea? Can’t you see how this is all going to crash and burn messily around you? Honestly, I think you’re blinded by lust because you finally have her in your bed. It’s going to be awful when it all falls apart, and you find yourself left with nothing.”

“I just don’t see it like that.” I shrugged in what I hoped was a blasé manner. “It’s all good. Everything is fine.”

I wasn’t about to tell him that I hadn’t heard from Maddie all day long, which wasn’t normal. During our period of being just friends, before anything untoward happened, I would always at least get a message from her. Something seemed to be going on with her, and I couldn’t work out what. I hoped it wasn’t me; I didn’t want to be the issue! What if she regretted anything happening between us and she didn’t know how to tell me? It would be hard to go back to just friends, but I could do it to salvage our amazing friendship. I didn’t want to lose that.

“Hmm, I’m sure.” Buster seemed to see right through my rouse. “Do you want talk about it? I won’t say I told you so...” He seemed to realize what a commitment this was. “Okay, so I might, but only the one time.”

I considered it. I did want to open up and get some advice from my friend, but now that he found himself in his own love story I wasn’t sure that I could. I didn’t know if I’d want to hear what he’d had to say. In the past, it had always been okay because he knew nothing about commitment anyway, but now he was armed with information.

“How are things with Lola?” I asked instead, seamlessly changing the conversation. “Let’s talk about that instead.”

“Oh, really good.” His face was overcome with a moony expression that made me throw up in my mouth just a little bit. I would have to meet this woman soon enough; it intrigued me to see what was so wonderful about her that she managed to tame the ladies’ man. “Lola is awesome. Honestly, I like her more every single day. It’s nuts.”

I took another swing with the golf club, sending the ball flying into the hole. I pumped my fist in a mini celebration at this tiny victory. I needed the boost from winning at something, and right now golf was all I had.

“Steady on, man,” I teased. “You’ll be dragging her down the aisle in a minute, making an honest woman out of her.” Buster averted his eyes, his cheeks staining a funny shade of pink. “Oh my God, you haven’t, have you?”

If he had proposed to her, that would really tilt the world on an odd axis.
