Chapter Eight
Katrinaâs POV
I had so much fun with you, in my gym, beautiful. Letâs just be completely honest with each other, Katrina. Youâve had a crush on me for years, and I tried to never say anything about it. But, it's out in the open now. I canât keep my hands off of you, and you canât keep yourself away from me. Letâs keep this small, just between us. I donât want to stop, and I donât think that you do either, so letâs not. Iâd like to see where this ends. I donât want a relationship, but Iâll be exclusive for you, Katrina. Iâll make you feel good like no other man has before. Before you say no, just think about it.
My eyes kept looking at the text message and the man who had sent it. Dane. This couldnât be serious, could it? There was no way that heâd meant to send it to me, but then why had he used my name? Not once, but twice. My heart was beating rapidly, against my chest, and I was scared that it was going to explode if I wasnât careful and got it under control.
I should have expected this when he had me coming for him, at the gym, just a couple days ago. When I hadnât heard from or seen him, Iâd thought he considered it a fluke, something that shouldnât have happened, but now I was realizing that wasnât the case. Heâd needed a couple days to get his head wrapped around it.
Exclusive. Yes, Dane had said that we wouldnât be dating, but heâd said heâd be exclusive with me. Wasnât that what I wanted? Yes, Iâd dreamt about being with him in an endgame relationship, but this was enough for me if it meant that I ended up with some piece of him. Everyone was having sex nowadays, and Iâd rather be immersed into the world with the help of a man that I trusted and loved.
It was a bit embarrassing that heâd always known about the crush that I had on him. Iâd thought that I did a pretty good job at pushing it down and hiding it, but obviously not. Had I been a fool to think that I could hide it from him and his daughter.
Had Emily known too and just hadnât said anything? The second that the thought entered my mind, it disappeared. Emily couldnât have kept something like that to herself, not for a long time anyway. If she had known then I was sure that she would have said something about it, at this point. I let out a breath of deep air. She didnât know, and I was grateful for that fact. I had enough to think about without adding Emily into the full mix of things.
I wanted to tell her. I didnât like to think about the fact that I was hiding things from her, but I didnât have much of a choice. Yes, she was my best friend, and probably the best thing that had ever happened to me.
