Chapter 22

Jump in with both feet – abandon all reason and proceed without caution

“I’m home,” I shout as I enter the house.

“Cash?” I call when he doesn’t respond. He must be in the recording studio. Bummer. I guess my exciting news will have to wait.

Time to get out of these interview clothes and into some sweatpants. I shrug off my good coat and drop my purse at the door before heading toward the stairs. Something crunches when I step on the first tread. It’s a piece of paper. What is a piece of paper doing here?

Follow me. I read.

Follow me? In which direction? I scan the area and discover another piece of paper halfway up the stairs.

Moving up in the right direction.

I hurry up the rest of the stairs toward the hallway. There’s an arrow leading toward my bedroom.

This way.

“Are you waiting in the bed with no clothes on? Corny.”

But when I enter my bedroom, it’s empty. I search the room and notice the window is open. My winter coat is folded over the ledge with my boots on the floor underneath.

Wear me.

I don the coat and shove my feet into the boots before sticking my head out the window.

“Cash?”

He doesn’t respond but there’s another arrow pointing to the roof.

“What if I’m afraid of heights?”

He peeks over the ledge. “You never used to be afraid of heights.”

“I also used to be a dumb teenager.”

“You were never dumb.”

I roll my eyes. “Argue about how idiotic teenagers are later. Help me now.”

He reaches down and I grab his hand before scrambling out of the window and onto the roof.

“You’re lucky I didn’t have to climb a tree,” I grumble as I brush dirt off of my interview slacks.

“You never minded when I had to climb trees.”

“Because I knew your inflated ego would cushion your fall if necessary.”

He chuckles before leading me toward a blanket and helping me to sit.

“Champagne?”

I open my arms wide to indicate the great outdoors we’re currently in. “Where are you going to get champagne?”

He motions to a picnic basket I hadn’t noticed.

“We’re having a picnic on the roof?”

“Remember when we used to spend hours sitting on the roof outside your window because your mom didn’t like me.”

I scowl at the mention of my mom. I’m still reeling from Cash’s revelation of what she did. Of how she broke us apart. Mom has always tried to control me but blackmailing my boyfriend to dump me? She went too far.

But I don’t want to think about Mom and how she doesn’t love me no matter what I do when I’m alone with Cash.

“She was probably being overprotective of her little girl.” I hate how my words sound as if I’m defending her.

Cash waggles his eyebrows. “I did deflower you.”

“Deflower?” I giggle. “I don’t remember there being any flowers.”

“Because I’m an idiot. I should have given you flowers and taken you to a hotel for our first time.”

I raise my eyebrows. “You didn’t enjoy the flatbed of Dylan’s truck?”

He groans. “I had rugburns on my knees for days.
