Chapter Nineteen

Somehow, despite my weak knees and head in the clouds, I made my way home without hitting anything with my car. I nearly floated on air up into my room, barely registering if my mom was home yet.

I’d kissed Jeremiah.

I’d cheated on Ryan.

My giddiness about the first tried to explain away my guilt about the second. Sure, I was with Ryan, but I wasn’t really into him. And he didn’t really seem that into me, other than he clearly liked kissing me and showing me off on his arm. He hadn’t even officially asked me to be his girlfriend, so for all I knew, he was flirting and dating other girls.

Except I knew he wasn’t. Everyone knew we were together, even if there hadn’t been an official conversation. I had been his first kiss, for crying out loud.

But despite my best efforts, he didn’t seem to be absorbing most of my hints about how to act. He was practically a poster child for ‘how not to be a good boyfriend.’

Even if he wasn’t perfect, the ickiness about kissing someone else slowly made its way through me. But I felt wonderful about kissing Jeremiah.

This hadn’t been just any kissing, either. It had been a full-on, toe-curling, fireworks-in-the-sky kind of kissing. I hadn’t locked lips with someone like that since…well, Jeremiah. But it was even better than any of the memories I’d been trying so hard to get rid of.

Maybe this whole being friends thing had made it more intense. We hadn’t actually been friends before, just friendly the way that jocks and cheerleaders always were from being in the same social circles. Over the past few weeks, I’d gotten to see another side of him, without the pressure of worrying if he would kiss me, or if I looked cute, or who might see us together, or what he was thinking about me. It had been great. He was even more amazing than I remembered.

I let out a breath and turned over, burying my head in my pillows.

Even though Linzie had been the one to steal him away, she hadn’t kissed him behind my back. I was so much worse than she was.

But he’d said he was miserable with her. And that he wished he could be with me instead.

What did that even mean?

Maybe his parents had always secretly hated me. Or maybe my parents had said something. I couldn’t picture my dad telling him to stay away, but since I hadn’t spoken to him in weeks, I couldn’t exactly make that the icebreaker conversation. “Hey, Dad, I’m still mad at you, but did you make my boyfriend dump me?” was not the ideal way to start up our relationship again.

Of course, my dad picked that exact moment to send me a message, interrupting my increasingly confused and anxious thoughts.

Call me please, sweetie, it said. I have something important to talk to you about.

Whatever so-called important thing he wanted to tell me could wait. I had bigger things to worry about.
