Chapter 28

Emilia

“You’ve been miserable all week. How long are you going to keep this up?” Kate says. “Didn’t you say that Mason was just a hook-up anyway? It was bound to end at some point. You knew that, didn’t you?”

I glance up at her and take the tub of ice cream she’s handing me. “Yeah, I knew,” I whisper. I’m glad I won’t have to keep lying to her anymore. Since Carter and I are done now, I won’t have to keep coming up with excuses when she asks me where I am or what I’m up to. I won’t have to keep roping Mason into this endless web of lies. It’s better this way, for everyone.

Kate groans and pulls on my hand. “Come on. I can’t take much more of you being this miserable. The best way to get over someone is to get under someone else. Let’s go find you a rebound.”

I grimace. I can’t stomach the idea of sleeping with someone else. I just want Carter. Kate stares at me expectantly and I sigh. “I guess a drink won’t hurt, but I don’t want a rebound.”

She nods and walks to my wardrobe. I’m not at all surprised when she pulls one of my most sexy dresses out. “Go on, go shower. And for God’s sake, wash your hair.”

I groan and force myself out of bed and into the shower. I can’t help but think of Carter. Does he miss me? Has he replaced me yet? If it’s just sex he wanted from me then he’s probably already found someone else to give him that. I wonder if what we had was at all special to him.

By the time I walk out of the shower Kate is dressed, her hair and makeup done perfectly. I glance at the makeup and hair styling tools she’s got laid out and sigh. She’s totally going to do a full make over on me. I sit down and let her do whatever the hell she wants while I sip the vodka mixer she hands me. It doesn’t take her long at all, and by the time she’s done with me the bags underneath my eyes are barely visible.

“Come on,” she says, grabbing my hand. “One of my friends is throwing a party in the woods. I’ve been a few times, and it’s always wild. I think it’s just what you need.”

I frown at her. “A party in the woods? Why does this sound like the start of a horror movie?”

Kate rolls her eyes and drags me along. By the time we get there I’m already eager to leave, but I don’t want to let Kate down. She greets countless people that don’t even remotely look familiar to me and I honestly can’t even get myself to introduce myself. I just want to go home and watch a chickflick in bed. Preferably with an entire pint of ice cream.

Kate hands me a drink and I take it from her eagerly. Maybe a drink or two might breathe some life back into me, but I doubt it.
