In the afternoon, all of the guys show up after a long day of riding at the motocross track. Zach had arrived first to shower and change clothes at his own house, but the guys went back to their hotel to clean up before coming over. Keanna and Jett are so cute when they reunite. Even if it’s only been a few days since they last saw each other, they act like it’s been years.

I sit on the couch and watch as Keanna squeals when Jett walks in the front door. She rushes over to him and he picks her up and they hug, her arms tightly wrapped around his neck. The sight of it warms me to the core. I want a relationship like that. Maybe one day I will get that lucky.

Clay shuffles in last, earbuds in place like they always are. He gives Zach’s mom a quick hug and then settles on the couch, not even looking in my direction. Fine, who cares. I certainly don’t.

The small living room feels a little cramped with all the guys here. They’re all energized from a day of riding and they’re talking so much that it makes it hard for Bree, Keanna and me to keep watching our Netflix show. But the good news is that with so much going on, Bree has no way to accidentally bring up the Tom thing.

And then the doorbell rings, and that very same person enters the house. I feel a blush creep from my head to my toes when Tom smiles at me. He gives me a little wave and then turns his attention to the guys.

Zach claps him on the back. “I’m glad you could come over,” he says. They’re old friends, according to what Tom had told me yesterday. They’ve known each other since they were little kids.

I glance at Bree, but she’s on her phone. Good. Hopefully she keeps quiet.

“How long are you guys staying?” Tom asks Zach.

“Just tonight. Headed to Vegas in the morning.”

“Cool, cool,” Tom says with a nod. He glances over at me and smiles. I smile back.

As the conversation goes back to motocross, Tom makes his way over to me. “You remember that pool stick I told you about yesterday?”

I nod. Somehow we’d gotten on the conversation of pool and he’d told me about a clear acrylic stick he had inherited from his grandfather. Tom gives me a sheepish look and I can’t believe I didn’t realize it yesterday. He’s got a huge crush on me. He’s twenty years old and he’s acting like a little kid on the school playground. It’s actually kind of cute. If I lived here in Tennessee, I might like him back.

“I brought it if you want to see it?” he says. “It’s in my truck.”

“Sure,” I say with a cheerful smile. I know this won’t go anywhere, but he’s a nice guy.

I grab the throw blanket off the couch and wrap it around my shoulders before following him through the garage door out to the front yard.
