“What do you mean neighbor?” I ask, my hands on my hips.

“We’re neighbors now,” Nick says, with a smirk twisting his masculine lips.

“Where do you live? Down the street?”

“Nope, try right across the hall.”

“Are you fucking kidding me?”

“No, Ma’am. I wouldn’t joke about that.” He grips my hand, tugging me along beside him. Leading me to the propped open door, he points at the apartment directly across the hall. “That’s where Zeke and I live. We also have another roommate, Trevor.”

I can’t believe this. The first time I saw this apartment I immediately fell in love with the layout. The rooms are filled with large windows that let in loads of natural light and the location is near school. It’s even conveniently located for my new job. Everything about this place is perfect, except for Nick being my neighbor.

How am I supposed to avoid him if he lives right across the hall?

Is the universe set on making my life hell?

Why can’t I catch a break?

“What’s the matter? Cat got your tongue?”

“Did you plan this?” I question. My eyes narrow as I carefully study his expression.

“Sure, Candy. This is all part of my nefarious plan to make you my sex slave.” He wiggles his eyebrows at me.

I know I sound like a paranoid freak, but what am I supposed to think? This all seems too coincidental for comfort.

“Noah asked me if I knew of any apartments and I told him about this one. I knew the guy that lived here had just moved out and it wouldn’t be available long.”

“Thanks, I guess. It’s a great apartment, but I don’t really need babysitters. I’m a big girl.”

“I’m not interested in babysitting, but I’m up for any private slumber parties you want to invite me to.” He winks.

I roll my eyes. “You would say that.”

“We had some great sleepovers in New York. I haven’t slept that well since.”

“Hmm,” I hum, noncommittally.

“You disagree?” he asks, putting me on the spot.

Raking my bottom teeth over my top lip, I think about how honest I want to be. Should I tell him that I haven’t had a good night’s sleep since? Or should I pretend that sleeping in his arms was mediocre? “I don’t disagree, but what good does admitting that do? There’s no reason for it to ever happen again.” I raise one shoulder in a half shrug.

“I think the fact that we both enjoyed it is enough of a reason to do it again. What time should I come over tonight?”

“What?”

“You heard me. What time are we going to bed?”

“We’re not going to bed at all.” I wag my finger back and forth between us.

“Wow, you’re a party animal. What are we doing all night?” He rubs his palms together.

“Stop deliberately misconstruing what I’m saying.”

“I don’t know what you’re referring to. I’m merely going by what you’re saying.”

“You and I aren’t going to bed at all.”

“I know. You already said so. That’s why I asked you what we’re going to be doing all night if we’re not sleeping.
