I could feel my face getting hot with anger as I read her reply. I was still staring at it when a second message came in on its tail.

And send me Clarence’s phone number. Now that your phone isn’t dead.

I didn’t even realize how pissed I was until the growl came out of my throat. I was so angry. So frustrated.

So hard.

As angry as we’d been with each other, it was probably good that we weren’t going to see each other tonight. Even better that we weren’t going to see each other for an entire week. I would get my apartment to myself, wouldn’t even have to stay at her place.

But... I wanted to see her.

I wanted to stay at her place. I wanted to fucking be in her arms. I wanted to be in her bed, wanted to be inside her—and since I still couldn’t stand her, the whole idea had me in turmoil.

I ran my hand through my hair. Both of my hands through my hair. One after another, willing myself to settle down, but I heard Roxie’s voice outside the office.

“Go on in. He’s in a mood though. I warn you.”

“I heard that,” I yelled.

“You were meant to,” she called back.

Then there was Sabrina standing in my doorway, her hands tugging at her hair like they often did, a gesture I’d found adorable when I’d first met her a decade ago.

And now?

She was striking, she really was. A natural beauty. She’d grown up to be even more sophisticated and beguiling, more sure of herself. She was serious and put together. She wasn’t feisty or passionate. She wasn’t late for everything.

Why did I have to remind myself that these were good things?

“Hey, what’s up?” she asked tentatively. “Is there a problem?”

“Not exactly.” I dropped my phone on my desk. But it sat there, staring, mocking, Elizabeth’s texts shouting in my head at the mere sight of it.

I opened my desk drawer and threw my phone inside, as though that would silence the buzz buzz of my thoughts.

It was weak, but the only idea I had at the moment.

I turned my attention back to Sabrina.

“Have a seat,” I said, and the world did seem a little less noisy now that my cell phone was tucked away.

She walked farther into the room somewhat cautiously, and slunk down in the chair facing me. “I’m here.”

“You’re here.” I didn’t even remember how to do this. Didn’t remember how to talk to a woman.

What the hell had happened to me?

I shook my head and attempted a smile. “Anyway. As I was saying downstairs, Tom Burns spoke to me yesterday, and he had some interesting things to say about you.”

“Really? Like what?” She blinked rapidly, seeming nervous.

Women were nervous when they were into a guy, right? Shit, I needed to be closer, needed to get the barriers out from between us. I stood up and circled around so I was right in front of her, then leaned back, half sitting on the desk behind me.
