Chapter Seven

RYAN

“Just want to warn you, Shannon, that I’ve lost our brother,” I tell my sister during our weekly call while waiting in the line for coffee. I order four cups of black coffee, three of them being for me and pay the cashier. American coffee is weak compared to what we drink back home and with the restless night I had, I need all the caffeine I can get. All I kept dreaming about was Adeline dressed up in different characters. First dream I remember she was Glinda the good witch from The Wizard of Oz, threatening to put a love spell on me. Except I told her I was ready and willing. Second dream was more of a hot for teacher kind of dream with Adeline teaching me the rules on love. Third dream was just her doing very naughty things to me, coaxing me into telling her I love her.

I woke up screaming from that dream.

Then I went and took a very cold shower and relieved myself with my hand.

Then I made the mistake of telling Rhett about my dreams, who decided to psycho-analyze them and told me that Adeline is my soul mate and my dreams were a way of my psyche trying to tell me without me freaking out.

Instead, Rhett’s freaking me out.

“What do you mean, you’ve lost him?” Shannon asks, worry starting to lace her voice. “When was the last time you saw him?”

“Oh, he’s physically still with me, but mentally, he’s a goner. Gone is the miserable bastard we’ve been dealing with the past two years and in his place, is a sappy, pathetic excuse for a man who insists he’s found his forever mate.” The things that were coming out of his mouth this morning were mind blowing. Telling me that there’s something special about Tessa and that he’s determined to make her his.

“Wait, Rhett’s found a girl? When did this happen? How long have they been together?” Shannon starts with her rapid fire of questions and I can’t wait to hear how shocked she’s going to be.

“This happened less than twenty-four hours ago. They haven’t even been on one date. It was like she hypnotized him with her beauty because as soon as he laid eyes on her, he was a changed man. He was charming, engaging in conversation and was smiling and laughing with all of us.”

“They just met last night?” she asks, the tone in her voice starting to sound doubtful.

“Yes, this all happened last night at dinner and to top it all off, he has already called her two times this morning! She hasn’t called him back yet, rightfully so as he’s starting to look like a bit of a creeper if you ask me.”

“Three times? You’re talking about our brother, Rhett?” I chuckle at her, picturing the expression on her face. Shannon and I are only a year apart and are closer to one another than Rhett and I are. Due to our age difference, he was in a different school than us and once he started his career, was always gone.
