“You can’t keep your eyes off of him.”

I turned to Amelia.

“That’s not true. I’m not looking at him now, and I wasn’t looking at him a few seconds ago. Besides, they’re right there in front of us. How do I not look over there?”

She grinned and whispered, “He keeps looking at you too.”

“Stop it!”

I pushed her away with my shoulder.

“I’m okay…honestly. It’s pretty clear that he’s happy with Mallory. I’m ready to move on.”

“Easier said than done. I know,” Corina said.

“Once you get a taste of a Parker brother, you’re done for,” Paxton added.

Amelia held up her hand. “Okay. Yuck. Those are my brothers y’all are talking about.”

Taking my hand in hers, Amelia gave it a light squeeze. “If it’s worth anything, I don’t think he loves her. It doesn’t even seem like he likes her that much anymore. I’ve never seen Tripp look so pained to be sitting and talking to someone.”

I tried not to look over at Tripp and Mallory, but my eyes wandered. They were laughing at something Jonathon had said, and I noticed that Amelia was right. Tripp looked like he wanted to be anywhere but where he was.

“If he’s not happy, why does he stay with her?” I asked.

Amelia shrugged. “Well, I don’t think Mallory is the type of girl to keep Tripp’s interest. She’s boring as hell.”

“Amelia!” Paxton, Corina, and I all said at once.

“What? It’s true. Do you know how many times I tried to strike up a conversation with her today? She sat there with her nose turned up like she was too good to be there. Don’t get me wrong, she is a nice person, but you can tell she clearly comes from a fancy background and is repulsed by what we do on the ranch.”

“But she was here…for Tripp,” I added.

Amelia rolled her eyes. “I guess.”

We got quiet as the reality set in for all of us. No matter what we said, Tripp and Mallory were a couple.

“How are things going with Toby?” Paxton asked.

Shrugging, I replied, “I think he feels like our friendship could lead to something more.”

Corina gave me a sweet smile as she pressed for more information. “And you? How do you feel?”

“Like I only see us being friends. He’s a great guy, and I have to admit he made my stomach drop a time or two and made my libido sit up, but I don’t think I’m interested in going past friendship.”

“Not even for a little friends with benefits kind of thing?” Amelia asked, wiggling her eyebrows.

“Nope. I don’t think so. It wouldn’t be fair to him. I need to get Tripp completely out of my head and heart before I can even think of moving on with another guy.”

They all nodded like they knew exactly what I was talking about.

“Like you said, Corina, easier said than done. I know Tripp will always hold my heart like no other man could. That will never change, and I have to accept it.”

Three pairs of eyes stared back at me with sympathy.
