I stood there for several minutes after Wyatt’s departure, my heart hammering against my chest wall because of his firm denial about having any feelings left for Simone.

He doesn’t love her. He doesn’t feel anything for her anymore.

Not only had he made it clear that he didn’t have feelings for Simone, but he’d let me know that he was crazy about…me.

I finally moved to take the cookies out of the oven and to finish cleaning up.

I hadn’t realized until those words had left Wyatt’s lips that he’d said exactly what I wanted to hear. What I’d needed to hear because I felt exactly the same way, and feeling that damn vulnerable alone was terrifying.

I started the dishwasher after I’d cleaned the kitchen, wondering if he was angry or if I’d hurt him by assuming that he still had feelings for a woman who didn’t deserve them.

I smiled a little as I heard Xena snoring comfortably on her bed in the corner of the living room. At some point, she’d obviously gotten bored watching me bake cookies.

I climbed the stairs, my heart aching because I’d jumped to a conclusion due to my damn insecurities.

Wyatt had never been anything but honest with me, and I’d screwed up by thinking he still cared about another woman.

Wyatt was attracted to me.

He liked me, and we were friends.

He felt the same crazy chemistry I did.

Did I really want to toss the opportunity away to explore this relationship because I was still a little insecure after my nightmare marriage to a jerk?

I’d told him we came from different worlds, but that had really never mattered, either.

It was just another excuse to avoid getting hurt in the future.

I stopped at Wyatt’s bedroom door, but I couldn’t hear anything but silence.

He’s probably asleep.

It was after two in the morning.

My heart heavy, I went to my bedroom, sat on my bed, and picked up my phone.

Maybe I should text him so he’ll see it first thing in the morning when he wakes up.

If I didn’t let him know how I was feeling somehow, I’d probably never sleep. The last thing in the world I wanted was to inadvertently hurt the one man who had been really good to me.

Me: I’m so sorry, Wyatt. I made an assumption I shouldn’t have made. I think I was insecure, and I assumed it wasn’t possible for this to be anything more than a passing attraction because I’m not really the type of woman a hot billionaire would notice. I should have just asked you for the truth like you asked me about my feelings for Justin. I hope I didn’t mess this up, because I know what I want now. And just FYI…I’m crazy about you, too.

I pressed the button to send the text before I could change my mind.

Whatever happened tomorrow, I was going to be honest with Wyatt and not let my stupid, leftover self-doubt from my trauma with Justin get in the way of my future relationships.

I’d isolated myself long enough.
