I get into my car and put the key in the ignition, flashing back to another time when I’m about to drive off, pissed at Ariela.

I’m sorry, Riley. You don’t understand.

No, I don’t understand. How could you do it? All this time? Leading me on. Telling me you were coming with me when all the while you planned to go to Princeton.

I kept hoping my dad would change his mind.

A knock on my window startles me and brings me back to the present.

“Riley,” Keatyn says.

I roll down the window. “I’m sorry about the wine.”

“I sorry I didn’t tell you I invited her,” she says, swaying slightly. She puts her palm on my car, closes her eyes, and sways again, her knees giving out.

I jump out of the car and grab her. “Keatyn!”

She quickly opens her eyes. “Oh, gosh, that was weird. I got hot and nauseous all of a sudden.”

“You fainted.”

“Oh, wow. Weird.”

“How much did you drink?”

“I didn’t drink anything.”

“Shit,” I say, knowing I can’t just leave her. “Come on, let’s get you inside. Has this ever happened before?”

“Um, no.” She shakes her head. “I think I’m just hungry.”

“Hungry and nauseated?” I put my arm around her and lead her back into the house. Aiden, who seems to have a sixth sense where she’s concerned, is rushing toward us.

“What’s wrong?” he asks, his face whiter than hers.

“I’m fine,” she says, but I disagree.

“She fainted.”

“I didn’t faint. I felt a little woozy for a minute. I think I’m just hungry.”

Aiden gently leads her to the couch, sitting down with her and rubbing her hand. “Are you sure, baby?”

When he calls her baby, my ears perk up. Usually, he calls her Boots.

I watch the two of them. The way they care. The way they love.

I say I don’t want that in my life. That I’m happy single.

That I don’t want complications. Just sex.

But once upon a time, it’s all I wanted.

I look out the window at Ariela.

The one I wanted to have it with.

“If you’re okay, I need to go. Will you be in the office tomorrow?”

“No,” Aiden says as she smiles at me and mouths, “Yes.”

This time, I jump back in my car and tear out of the driveway.
