My palms were hot. I was itching to slap him right now for saying that, hard enough to leave a permanent imprint on each side of his face so he could remember what it felt like every time he saw it in the mirror. At the same time, I could die from embarrassment. I didn’t know which one to do first, so I sat there with my mouth dropped open and my eyebrows knitted together.

I also desperately wanted to ignore the fact that every square inch of my body was also probably hot to the touch right now, coming alive from the hungry look in his eyes, like he had a film roll of one impure thought after the other on what he wanted to do to me. Kind of like the way his TV was defaulted to turn on to a porn channel. I could easily have tumbled into his arms and his bed right now, if he hadn’t been such a prick by suggesting I was a virgin—which I was, although that wasn’t the point.

The sad reality was I had convinced myself that showing up at Evan’s place for our scheduled appointment was the right thing to do. Sure, there was a job to be done. Not only did I fail at doing it, but I’d also kissed him, and crumbled at his doorstep like a frightened little girl, just for the sake of laying low somewhere on campus while Kristy was still at her parents’ for dinner. Getting in touch with Nick was out of the question. The last thing I wanted to do was lead Nick on.

In hindsight, I should have cancelled Evan’s session. After Austin showed up unannounced at my dorm for a second time, I should have sent Evan a text message to reschedule, then I should have driven like the wind back to the safety of my parents’ house in suburbia. Cops and campus security should have been contacted at some point too. I just didn’t want to become another casualty of Austin Grant’s obvious untouchable status. Fighting him and trying to graduate were like oil and water—the two didn’t mix. Now I was here in a virtual stranger’s room. I’d been in his arms and practically making out with him while hiding out at his place, simply because Evan and his friend had done their good deed for the semester by standing up to Austin. I needed to get it through my thick skull that their one moment of bravery didn’t make them heroes, or my appointed protectors. That truth was crystal clear after Evan’s off-the-wall comments. They were downright uncalled for and totally prick-worthy. I can’t believe I’d kissed him—twice.

I scrambled out of the chair and stuck my feet back into my shoes. “It was a mistake coming here, and unprofessional of me to stay while I’m in this…situation. I apologize for letting my personal affairs interfere with doing my job at the standard that’s expected of me. It’s best if I leave now.
