Chapter Eight

Colton

I was looking forward to grabbing a coffee with my brother. It felt as if I hadn’t spoken to him in ages, even though I’d seen him briefly at the parade. Now that I was back in Texas for a while, at least until our next tour started, I was going to have to put in more effort to see him.

I hadn’t told Tyler that I was bringing a date to the coffee shop but knowing my brother he would take it in his stride and Daisy would be there so at least it would even up the numbers—plus they’d both get to meet Liv, so I’d be killing two birds with one stone. I couldn’t wait for my brother to meet her.

I was relieved Liv had agreed to go out with me again although I supposed, if I wanted to be technical about it, she hadn’t exactly agreed, I just hadn’t given her the opportunity to say no. One of these days I was going to have to ask her outright if she wanted to go out with me again to see whether or not she would actually accept. I wasn’t opposed to sneaky, ruthless tactics to ensure she kept going out with me, but it would be a relief to know that the attraction I felt toward her wasn’t entirely one sided.

I wasn’t sure why, but sometimes it felt as if she was pulling away from me, or going along with me when she really wanted to say no. It was frustrating—I wished I was able to understand what was going in her mind. We got on well and there was definite chemistry between us, but it felt as if something was holding her back. Of course, her reluctance might have been because of her recent experiences with men. If her ex had cheated on her then it would stand to reason that she would be cautious and, on her guard, now.

I could relate. As much as I liked Liv, I kept watching for similarities between her and my ex. Every time I caught myself doing it, I had to remind myself that Liv was nothing like that crazy woman, but it was difficult to completely lay that experience to rest.

Just yesterday, in fact, when we’d been at the hospital and a couple of nurses had asked for me to take a selfie with them, I’d caught a sour expression on Liv’s face. I didn’t expect her to love all the attention I got—most of the time it was inconvenient and occasionally downright annoying, but there wasn’t a damn thing I could do about it.

This was my life.

People gravitated to celebrities. And yeah, sure, some women flirted with me, but I never flirted back and was always careful not to lead them on. If Liv wanted to be in a relationship with me then she was going to have to trust me. And, by that token, I would have to trust her. If we could both do that, we had a real shot at a future together.
