“He’s an arrogant asshole,” I said as I flopped down on the couch next to Kim.

She and Rick were in the middle of watching a movie, but they muted it when I barged in after deciding I’d stewed in my room long enough. I had to vent, because if I didn’t, I swear I would have exploded.

“How dare he act like this was my fault?” I said as I leaned back against the couch cushions and pulled a small pillow into my lap, then held it tightly against me. “How the hell was I to know Andrew was a crazy person? I mean, you met him.” I waved my hand toward Kim and found that she was trying not to laugh at my behavior and Rick was staring at me blankly, because he’d never seen me in such an uproar before.

“You met him that night we went out and then again later at the club. Did you girls invite him to join us?” Rick asked, looking between us.

When we shook our heads, he wrinkled his brow in confusion. “What are the chances of him showing up at the same club as us?” Rick leaned in closer, not taking his eyes off us. “There are hundreds of clubs and bars in the city, yet he showed up at the one bar we reserved a VIP room at. Are you sure neither of you said the name of the club?”

“No,” I said confidently, “I’m sure of it.”

A moment of silence past before Kim spoke. “Neither of us said anything about where we were going. Just that we were going out and our ride was waiting.”

“Yet he shows up, buys you ladies a drink, and is humbly invited to join us for the evening,” Rick said.

“So you're saying it’s my fault too?” I slid forward on the couch, not giving Rick or Kim a chance to speak. “So I should automatically assume every guy I meet is a psycho serial killer? I should have a background check run, or hell a DNA test performed. I’m some naive girl who has no idea when some crazed lunatic is targeting me, right?”

I stood, throwing my hands up in the air all dramatic like. I knew I was being a goddamn drama queen and that Rick didn’t deserve this treatment, but I was still pissed at Beckett’s hurtful words and it was just too late to stop this fit.

“I’ll shrivel up and die before ever meeting a guy I may get busy with, because apparently when I meet men, they’re assholes, psychos, or overgrown boys with cavemen tendencies. I guess I’ll just end up dying alone with twenty cats.” I spun around on my heel and stormed back off toward my room.

“I should just start dating women,” I huffed, and Kim snickered.

“No, Elle, because woman are worse than men. We’re catty, bitchy, and know just what to do to make our lover’s life hell when we feel the need,” Kim hollered after me. “Isn’t that right, babe?”

I didn't wait for Rick’s response.
