Chapter Twenty

Aspen

I put down the phone, still angry over what Sarah told me. But I know she’s right. The contract specifically states ‘if he was found to have had sexual relations with another woman.’ I was stupid not to amend it to cover all activity including kissing and whatever else Sawyer and the skank were doing last weekend.

I look at the tabloid magazines sitting on my coffee table. This is exactly what I wanted to avoid. It makes me out to be just another one of his throwaways. ‘Trouble in Paradise,’ one headline reads. ‘It was only a matter of time,’ boasts another.

Nobody got a picture of Sawyer and the woman I saw him with, but that doesn’t matter. They’re posting old pictures of him and random women to make it look like I’ve been getting played all along. I can’t even count how many of my classmates and friends have called to console me over our breakup.

But the thing is, when it comes down to it, I had to admit to myself that I was jealous. That I’ve fallen for a guy who isn’t capable of being with one woman. And even if he were, he wouldn’t choose the one he hired to play a part.

My ridiculous fantasy of him becoming that guy I met the first night, of him falling for me the way I’ve fallen for him, of the two of us living happily-ever-after – it’s all a silly dream. One I know I’ve been fighting since day one.

I don’t even know how it happened. He’s not that great of a guy if I’m being honest. He’s self-centered. He has no idea how to treat a woman. And his arrogance knows no bounds. Why would he think he wouldn’t have to go to my graduation? It’s ludicrous.

I’ve read his texts and emails a dozen times. Each one seemed more desperate. He claimed he was cornered by that woman. That she came on to him and it had just happened when I ran into them. He practically begged me to let him come over. He did come over, but I had Bass turn him away.

But the memory of that woman and her smeared lipstick. And the reality that he’d just said he wanted to find a dark hallway and have sex with me. It all adds up to the fact that he’s an arrogant liar. Maybe he’s been sleeping around all along but has just been very discreet about it.

“Come on, beautiful, you can’t be late for your own graduation,” Bass says, looking all handsome in his dress shirt and tie. “And I told Brooke we’d pick her up on the way.”

“She really likes you,” I say.

He nods. “Yeah, I know.”

I narrow my eyes at him. “You don’t like her? She’s very pretty. And nice. She’s the only one of my classmates who hasn’t tried to get something out of this whole deal of my friendship with a famous baseball player.”

“She got courtside seats,” he reminds me.

“But she didn’t ask for them.
