“Only water?” Tate watched me as I gulped my glass of water greedily.

“I don’t need any more alcohol. It’s going to cause me to make some bad decisions.” I smiled ruefully at him. “And I don’t want to do that.”

“I don’t mind if you make any bad decisions.”

“I’m sure you don’t, but you’re also my boss, and my coworkers are here and well, you know, it could be complicated.”

“I like complicated.”

“I don’t.” I shook my head and continued to gulp my water down so that I could ignore the way that his blue eyes were gazing at me so intensely. “I’m not a good-time girl, Tate.”

“I never thought you were.”

“Okay.” I nodded. “So, any fun plans for the weekend?”

“Why, is that an offer?”

“No.” I rolled my eyes.

“I need to get some work done this weekend as I’m going to Charleston next weekend.” He made a face.

“I thought you were going in two weeks?”

“An emergency came up.” He toyed with the glass of whiskey in his hands. “My sister wants me to come home this weekend to help with something.”

“Oh?”

“Our dad is having issues with the man she’s marrying.” His lips twisted in annoyance. “She wants me to run interference.”

“Oh, the democrat?”

“Yeah, his name is Sam. My dad wants Rose to call off the wedding.”

“Oh, wow.” My eyes widened. “It’s that serious? He hates him that much?”

“I don’t know the whole deal.” Tate shook his head and sighed. “I didn’t want to think about this tonight. Sorry.”

“Do you not want to go home?”

“It’s just a lot. My mom will try and set me up with all her friend’s daughters.” He made a face. “I don’t have time for that.”

“Oh, I thought you’d be happy to meet more women.” I ignored the way jealousy twisted in my stomach.

“I used to be very happy.” He smiled ruefully. “Until I realized there was a hidden agenda. I’m not looking to marry anyone.”

“So tell your mom that.”

“She doesn’t care. Rose thinks I should bring a woman home with me next weekend to get her off of my back.”

“Are you going to?”

“Hell no.” He shook his head. “I wouldn’t be interested in taking home any of the women I’ve fucked, I don’t need them to get the wrong idea. I guess I’ll have to suck it up. Maybe I’ll be a bad boy again. Mom nearly didn’t live down the last time I screwed around with one of her friend’s daughters.”

“That sounds like a story I need to hear. Are you going to tell me what happened?”

“Trust me, you don’t want to know.”

“I do want to know.”

“I’ll tell you if you have another drink.”

“I’ll have another drink if you promise not to kiss me again tonight or try anything else.”

“But what if I want to?” He took a step closer to me. “What if I’m already missing the taste of your lips?”

“Tate, no.” I took a step back. “We can’t.”

“But we can. We really can.”

“Tate!”

“Fine. I promise to not make any more moves tonight if you have another drink with me.
