EVAN

Kendall bobs her head along to the music playing through the speakers in the kitchen while I get dinner ready. For the last couple days, things have been going well between us.

It took a lot of talking, but I think we’re in a place where we might actually be able to see where the feelings between us go.

At least, we could be if I tell her about the secret I’m hiding.

I’ve tried to tell her a couple times over the last few days, but every time I do I start to get choked up. There is no good way to bring up the conversation and the adult in me knows that I can’t let her get into what we have without knowing who I am.

“Are you okay?” Kendall asks as she looks up from her essay. “The chicken is burning.”

“Fuck!” I spin around and take the pan off the heat, shoving it to one of the other burners before turning the stove off.

“Guess we’re ordering in tonight,” Kendall says, doing a little happy dance in her seat.

I sigh and run a hand down my face.

It’s now or never.

“Kendall, there’s something I need to tell you and I know it’s only going to piss you off, but can you listen to the whole thing before you storm out?”

Her eyes narrow as she looks at me. “Maybe. What’s going on? You sound like you’re about to tell me that everyone I know is dead and that we’re the last two people on earth.”

Rolling my eyes, I lean against the counter. “No. It’s not that dramatic. It’s not good either. I’ll understand if you don’t want to stick around.”

“I don’t need your permission to stay or go,” she says, giving me a teasing smile. “Just spit it out. This beating around the bush is going to be the death of me.”

My stomach is tossing and turning as I look at her. I want her permanently burned into my mind in case this is the last time I see her.

If she chooses to leave, I wouldn’t blame her. This is a massive secret I’ve been keeping from her since the moment we met. She would have every right to be mad at me.

“Evan,” she says slowly, pulling out her phone and turning off the music, “you’re starting to make me worry.”

“I knew your father.”

All emotion drains from her face. She looks pale, her eyes wide. “What do you mean?”

“Your father, Dave, and I were best friends for most of our lives. During the time that he was alive, I have very few memories without him in them.”

She shakes her head, her eyes glistening. “Is that what this has all been about? You approached me at the club and brought me into your life because you knew my father? Is this some sick sense of duty? You need to protect his daughter because she doesn’t have a man to look after her?”

“Yes,” I say before shaking my head. “No. It might have started off that way.
