Chapter 9

* * *

I felt like crap. I kept avoiding Danny’s calls because I did not know what to say to him. Did I tell him that his brother made a move on me? I still did not know what the tension was between them sometimes. Should I even tell him I saw Tim? I would think it might be hard to explain why I was at Tim’s in the first place. That really did not look good on my part. Fuck. Aargh. Grr… and any other exasperated word.

I finally had to tell Trinity what happened. I must have looked like a complete wreck because she would not stop grilling me with twenty questions. “Wow, Sam. That’s just shitty.”

“Thanks for the words of encouragement, Trin. Really.”

“Hey, I’m sorry. I warned you this was an awkward situation. I really did not see the kiss coming though. I guess we’re not triple dating on Friday, huh?”

“Ya think?” My phone rang again. It was Danny, of course.

“Just answer it, Sam. He’s going to wonder why you’re not answering and think something’s wrong,” she said.

“Something is wrong! I kissed his brother!” I exclaimed.

“Technically, his brother kissed you and you left. So you really did nothing wrong.” Ok, she had a point.

“Yes, but I enjoyed it and can’t stop thinking about it and that makes me equally guilty.”

“I wouldn’t say equally, but you feel guilty for other reasons.” She paused to get a drink from the kitchen. “Just talk to him.”

I thought about it for a minute. “Ok, I am not going to tell him because that would hurt his relationship with his brother and I don’t want that to happen. Danny has had a rough time of it and I do not want to be the one that breaks up the only family he really has. I cannot do that. I will just stay away from Tim unless absolutely necessary.”

“Ok, but I somehow don’t think this is over.” Boy was she right.

I finally called Danny back that night. I could not avoid him forever. He answered right away. “Hey gorgeous, where ya been?” he asked.

“Hey, studying. These professors are trying to kill me.”

“I hear ya. So I talked to Tim today,” he said. Oh, crap.

Play stupid, Sam. “Oh yeah? How is he?”

“Ok. I guess him and Stacy broke up. He said they just didn’t want the same things and it wasn’t fair to continue with the relationship if they didn’t agree on the major things.”

“Aw, that’s too bad. She’s a nice girl.” No idea what to say. “So I guess that means our double date is off, huh?”

He laughed. “I think so. But we’re still on, right?”

“You know it. I can’t wait.” It was true. I could not wait. I just needed a hug and to smell him. His smell was intoxicating. “Actually, what are you doing now?”

“Now? Not studying for my Bio test.”

“Do you want to come over?” I did not want to wait until tomorrow. I needed to see him now. I needed him to push Tim’s kiss out of my head.
