Chapter Eighteen

“Admit it to yourself at least, if you won’t to me.”

Logan

The minute I tell Nikki it’s the best night of my visit, she shuts down. I show a few moves to the seniors, but in truth, they’re probably better with their knives and mace. One woman said she carries a stun gun. By the time we’re all served ice cream as if this is a Boy Scout meeting, a small part of me thinks I should put up a sign in the community to warn would-be criminals about them.

We’re seated around a few tables, and I’m with the guy named Isaac and another guy named Earl. All they seem to care about is whether the boobs on the women who hold up the signs in the ring are real.

“I honestly don’t know,” I answer again, my gaze straying over to Nikki, who’s still trying to explain to Midge that tea isn’t actual tea. She should give up that fight now.

Earl leans in. “Come on. We won’t tell Nikki or Ethel. Look at you, you’re telling me you’ve never had sex with one of them?” He looks at Isaac. “I don’t believe this guy.”

I shake my head, scooping my chocolate ice cream out of the dish. I’m not getting into it with these two. “How about we change topics?”

“Okay, how many women do you get on a weekly basis?” Isaac asks. “Do you believe in reincarnation? Because I’d like to come back as you.”

I laugh and finish off my ice cream, leaning back in the chair. “I’m a married man.” I hold up my hand, showing off the ring I bought for myself so we can continue this charade.

So many times, I’ve wanted to tell Nikki the truth that I couldn’t care less about our deal and I’m here to see where this goes. But she’s made it clear that she can’t handle, or doesn’t want to handle, anything to do with her heart.

When I pinned her, I felt her rapid heartbeat and the way she sighed when my weight was over her. The slight movement she made underneath me like maybe it wouldn’t be the worst thing if we did this when we weren’t in front of a group of elderly people watching our every move. I want to confront her, but she’s still far from ready. Every time I think we’ve made progress, she retreats.

“Fine, you can come back by yourself some other day and tell us the real story.” Isaac winks.

I laugh. “I’m serious. I’m not the type to sleep around.”

Isaac winks again. “Sure, you aren’t.”

“I hope you’re telling the truth because if I were you, I wouldn’t want Ethel or Dori on my back for anything I did. They’re scary, especially as a team.” Earl scoops his ice cream, looking at the women in question.

Isaac waves. “Don’t listen to him, he likes Dori. If he could stay awake long enough, maybe they could get it on.” Isaac laughs at his own joke.

“I have narcolepsy, okay? It’s beyond my control.
