HEY, WHAT’S UP? I typed into the message. No. Delete, delete, delete. We should talk. Talk? Talk about what? How my wife was blackmailing me to never talk to Andrea again? How her secret would be world news if I were seen with her in public? It was two in the damn morning and I couldn’t stop pacing this hotel room. I really needed to get my own place as soon as possible.

I fell onto my bed, blankly staring at my cell phone. Son of a bitch. I needed to call.

“Hello?” the tired, but deep, voice said on the other line.

“Kyle. I need advice.” I was desperate, so I reached out to the one person who I knew wouldn’t hate me for calling at ridiculous times during the night.

“I fucking hate you,” he whined. He didn’t mean it.

“Seriously. I don’t know what to do. Iris is blackmailing me. I can’t see Andrea and she has no clue why. And I can’t tell her because Iris is threatening to expose her darkest secrets. And I fucking miss her. And I don’t just mean the sex. I mean her, Ky.” I ran my fingers over my eyebrows, allowing realization to set in. I missed Andrea more than I have ever missed anything.

“You know what you need?”

My ears perked up, ready to hear his advice. The last time he gave me advice, I ran into Andrea. So I was anxious for some of his knowledge.

“You need to be single for awhile. Clearly you can’t fuck and leave it at that. You get all twisted in emotions like a little bitch.” He was extra harsh today; he must have been really tired. “You need to deal with your issues with Iris. Deal with your dad issues. And I mean really fucking deal. Stop burying that shit and stop thinking that finding a second choice will make it better. Listen, I was up late helping a friend out of a sticky situation. I’m tired, all right? I’m going to sleep, asshole.”

I sat in my dark hotel room again. With my thoughts. Fuck my thoughts. I didn’t want to be thinking about her, but she wouldn’t get out of my head. I sure as hell didn’t want to be thinking about him, but there he was, in my mind. I wanted everything about my past to disappear, but the memories started to resurface.
