CHAPTER SIXTEEN

Sass

I cross my legs under the desk and wince at the soreness between my thighs. I don’t know what kind of voodoo magic Reed put on me when we slept together—or rather, fucked like bunnies—but days later I’m still feeling it. I hadn’t thought it’d been that long, but maybe I was wrong. Maybe he was bigger than I thought he was. Either way, there’s never been a man who’s done it for me. Truthfully, I like sex, but with the men I’ve been with, I’ve rarely been truly satisfied. I have a sneaky suspicion that’s one more thing Reed Shamrock has ruined for me.

If there was any way in this world I thought the two of us could be together without imploding, I would jump at the chance, but the fact of the matter is, it scares the shit out of me. Literally scares me.

So many questions come to mind, and they invade my thoughts at every hour of the day. What if we don’t work out? What if we do work out? What does this mean for his friendship with Justin? Who will he spend holidays with? What does it mean for me and my own heart? It’s a shitty situation to be in.

Reed hardly ever talks about his lack of family; that’s why he’s so close to us. If we don’t work out, I don’t want to remove the only family he’s truly known from his life. That would kill me—if the broken heart didn’t kill me first. It’s not like he doesn’t have family, but his parents were workaholics who never should have had a child. They believed in doing for themselves, and since he didn’t go to college after high school, it was up to him to make his own way. The only thing Reed loved was carpentry, so RS Construction was born.

Too bad his success didn’t help his relationship with his parents, and to this day, they still don’t really talk. There’s just no communication or feeling there. I don’t want to be the next person in his life he doesn’t communicate with.

“C’mon, Justin.” I sigh. Waiting on him has become a huge part of my job. He runs later and later every day, and I know at some point we’re going to have to have a talk about him respecting my time boundaries. That will be oh so pleasant.

I glance up at the clock and realize he’s probably at least an hour out. I’ve done all the invoices for the day, scheduled appointments for the next day; frankly I have nothing else to do that’s pressing. Booting up the computer, I log onto Facebook and decide to look around.

Reed and I are Facebook friends, so I click on his name and go in search of his pictures. For some reason, I’m nosey and want to snoop his old pics. There’s a part of me that needs to see if he still has pics of him and Lacey up. Trust me, I know this is a stupid idea.
