CHAPTER SIXTEEN

Noah sat in his truck and blared the music as loudly as it would play. He might not have any eardrums left when it was over, but that was a risk he was willing to take. With the mood he was in, it was probably safer for everyone for him to risk hearing loss rather than be around actual humans.

This train of thought led him to many, many questions on life and all that entailed. But one stood out above the rest.

Why in the hell did people choose to fall in love?

People actually sought it out. He was utterly perplexed by this fact. There were dating sites that individuals actually signed up for, put their pictures on, and listed things about themselves on to try to attract another individual.

It made no sense to him. None at all.

Not only that, but the flower market made a killing off of love and romance. Mostly men, but some women, too, bought flowers for their lovers to tell them how much they loved them or to say they were sorry or to celebrate a special occasion or even for the simple reason of letting them know they were thinking about them.

There were cards and trinkets, lingerie and poetry, sexy games and chocolate, and on and on and on, and he didn’t even want to think about the wedding industry. All of these things were geared toward love and romance. He could understand the sex part of it all. That made sense to him. He couldn’t understand the love part.

Why would anyone put themselves in a situation where they were vulnerable, where they were dependent on another person for their own happiness? From what he had witnessed, all of that led to nothing but pain and frustration.

In his own defense, he hadn’t been looking for love. He hadn’t wanted anything to do with it. For that matter he hadn’t really believed much in it at all. It wasn’t as if he’d had a shining example in his parents to go by. He’d been more than content to roll around many, many, many different beds, feel the varying textures of multicolored sheets, and then happily walk away the next day, fully satisfied. He hadn’t even had to remember the girls’ names.

But then Sarah had blown into his life like a freaking summer storm, and he hadn’t been able to shake her. She consumed his thoughts, his emotions, his feelings. She had him begging her to be with him like some pathetic teenager who didn’t know the first thing about heartbreak, and she had him so frustrated he wasn’t fit company for anyone.

He hadn’t been seeking love, but somehow he’d found himself in a situation where it was utterly consuming him. It was all he thought about. He wanted this woman, and he didn’t want to want her. He seriously didn’t want to need her. He wanted to run in the opposite direction of her, but he couldn’t make himself do that.

So that all led him back to his original thought of why in the hell would anyone seek out love? He didn’t get it.
