CHAPTER 13

Andrew

I see Avril’s office light on, and I head for it rather than my own office. It’s a well-established tradition that Avril has always been the first into Caterva in the morning, followed by me and then Dane. That hasn’t changed since they got married.

Even as great as my evening with Brynne was—a wonderful meal with her and my two best friends followed by soul-entangling, mind-blowing sex—I’ve thought about nothing but Avril since I woke up at five.

Not in a sexual way.

Not in any way that has to do with things that would be between a man and a woman.

But rather as my best friend who knows me better than anyone in the world, and that includes Dane. I woke up this morning, wrapped around Brynne and breathing her scent in, knowing deep down that “she’s the one,” and I couldn’t think of anything other than getting into the office to talk to Avril about it.

She’s bent over her laptop, a cup of steaming coffee sitting beside it. She’s taken to wearing reading glasses in the past few months, and I think it makes her look as smart as she actually is. I’ve always teased Avril that she resembles pop-princess Taylor Swift and not the chief operations officer of a world-renowned biotech firm, but the glasses definitely give her an appearance that finally matches the size of her brain power.

I tap my knuckles on the doorjamb. She doesn’t even look at me as she says, “Good morning.”

“Morning,” I reply, and she finally raises her head. She hears it in my voice, and it causes the corners of her mouth to turn downward and her eyebrows to draw inward.

“What’s wrong?” she asks with concern.

“Brynne,” I tell her succinctly as I drop down into one of her guest chairs, then prop my sneakered feet on her desk. It’s a move that would cause me to get yelled at by Dane, but Avril doesn’t care. Just as she doesn’t care that I refuse to dress up for work, feeling that my brain works better when I’m comfortable in jeans and tennis shoes.

“What happened?” she asks as she shoves her laptop aside. “I thought all was great last night. She’s great. You’re great. How could you have screwed it up already? I really liked her, Drew.”

I hold a hand up, a slow smile forming on my face. “Chill out, Mrs. Worries-A-Lot. She’s fine and I’m fine, and we’re fine together. Or at least we are right now.”

“But possibly not in the future?” she guesses with a concerned expression.

“I’m not sure,” I admit. “I’m bothered about something, and I want to run it by you.”

“I don’t think you’re moving too fast,” Avril replies quickly, her expression like that of a mom encouraging her kid on the first day of school not to be scared.

“That’s not it. It’s—”

“And the distance thing shouldn’t be an issue. You’re richer than God. You can work there, or she can come here—”

I want to laugh at my bestest of friends in her zeal to make my love life work, but I sternly cut her off instead.
