Chapter Eighteen

“He is definitely not moving on,” Melissa said on FaceTime the next morning. “Nuzzle.”

Reese’s cheeks hurt from smiling so much with her best friend. “Right? I’m not being ridiculous? He should not have teased me like that.” She shifted on the couch so she could prop her elbow up on a pillow. This was one of her and Melissa’s marathon convos and her arm and fingers were fatigued from holding her phone.

“Definitely not,” she agreed. “I’m worried you guys are going to kiss again.”

“So am I.” She could still feel his full lips on hers, the eager pressure that had her tingling all over. His body against hers and his heart beating hard and fast. “But we can’t. It’s not worth the risk.”

“Or it is,” Mel said. “You’ve never loved any guy as much as you love Cam.”

“Exactly. And I love his family too. What if we did start dating or whatever, and it doesn’t work out and there are hard feelings? Then I couldn’t be around Pixie anymore. Or the guys. And would my mom and Pixie be able to stay friends? It would put all of us in a difficult situation.”

“But what if he’s the one?”

Reese sighed. “My head is going to explode. Can we talk about this more later?”

“No problem. In the meantime, I have another perfect guy for you.” Melissa reached to her left and lifted up a framed picture of her fiancé, Scott, and his brother Caleb. She waved it for Reese to see, her diamond engagement ring sparkling. “He asked about you the other day.”

Another perfect guy. Could a person have two soulmates?

“And what better way to get over Cam than with someone else?”

“True, but the situations are similar. What if we date and break up and can’t stand each other? Then we’ve put you and Scott in a difficult position. I want to be with you for all your important events, and he’ll want to, too.”

“Or, you could go on one date with him and see what happens. There is a flipside to your doubts. Maybe if you gave him a chance, you’d be pleasantly surprised and decide he’s worth it. There’s never any guarantees for any of us.”

She supposed that was true. “Okay, I’ll think about it.”

“Yay!”

“I need to get going. Rub your tummy for me and we’ll talk later.”

Melissa put her hand to her mouth and blew a kiss through the phone screen. “Bye.”

Reese dropped her cell on the couch and stood. She only had a few minutes before Scarlett arrived with Thomas.

She walked over to the kitchen table and closed her laptop. She’d written a few more pages this morning while baking banana bread, putting herself in Poppy’s shoes again as she mixed and poured. She pulled a fresh bowl of strawberries out of the fridge and placed it on the counter beside the banana bread just as a knock sounded.

“Good morning,” she said, opening the door and greeting Scarlett. “Come on in.”

“Hi, thanks.” She held Thomas’s car seat
