Chapter 23

Kain

The bar was slow. There were a few people scattered about playing pool and poker. Callie was the only bartender, and Julian, Raf, Bryan and I were all bouncing.

I wasn’t sure why Randy had so many bouncers on shift on a Thursday night. He had hired all of us because of the harassment Callie was facing on her shifts, but the real problems were on the weekends, not during the week.

Since I was the fourth man on the crew and wasn’t really needed, I spent my shift at the bar drinking. Technically, we weren’t supposed to be drinking while we were on the job, but Randy wasn’t there, and there was no need for so many bouncers to be on shift.

I was half-surprised I hadn’t been sent home already. But Callie was being a sweetheart and listening to me mourn over my life and whine about how unfair everything was. She was the sweetest and knew how to handle drunk people going through breakups very well.

“I’ve been trying to reach her all week,” I blubbered to her. “Why won’t she just answer the phone? I want to explain to her what happened, but she’s not even giving me that chance. I tried to text her, but she’s not answering any of those, either.”

“If she’s not going to talk to you about what’s going on, then she might not be the best choice of a partner,” Callie said. “If a relationship is going to work, then both people need to communicate.”

“You know what? You’re right,” I said. “You’re absolutely right. Why the hell would I want to be with someone who doesn’t talk to me? It’s like totally not cool for her to do that. She’s not even giving me a chance to tell her what’s going on, and she’s being such a child about it.”

“Exactly,” Callie said. “Just keep telling yourself that, and soon you’ll forget all about her. You need to find someone who will treat you with respect and give you the time of day!”

“Right!” I said boldly.

I drank the rest of my beer and felt a lot better.

For about five minutes.

After that, I started to think about all the fun times we had together. I missed her. Missed everything about her. I was very pissed at Misty for what she had done at the party, and I was even more pissed that I couldn’t even explain myself to Sloan. All I could think about was how betrayed she must feel.

I knew she already had trouble trusting men. She told me so. And with what she had seen, she must have thought I was just like everyone else. By the time Callie came back, I was right back where I started.

“You know, it wasn’t even my fault,” I said. “Misty was the one who came on to me. I tried to get her off me, but she wouldn’t budge.”

“Oh, I can’t stand her,” Callie said. She wasn’t much older than Misty herself, but she was far more mature.
