After dinner, Jamie parks in front of my house. My hands shake from the nerves rocking through me. Jamie’s rich, like mega-wealthy, and here we are out front of the rowhouse in Northeast Philly where I live with my parents. The house where I grew up. I still have posters on my bedroom walls from when I was in middle school. I even have the same bedding and furniture.

I smack a kiss on his cheek. “Thanks for everything.”

He cups the side of my face in his big hand and brings my mouth to his. A soft kiss causes my heart to flutter, his touch so delicate and sensual it causes tiny bumps to dot my skin.

“Let me walk you in,” Jamie offers.

“No,” I say against his lips. “You don’t have to do that.”

He laughs. “Why? Are you embarrassed by me?”

“No, of course not. But I have to get my brother ready for bed.”

“You mean you have to play Mage Wars with him,” he says, tipping up my chin with his finger until our eyes meet. “Who better to play with him than me?”

I stare into his eyes, unsure how to respond. “Really? You’d do that?”

“We’re not that different, Shan.”

He’s right. But no matter how much I like Jamie, it’s hard not to see his real life. To see the money and everything that comes with it. I’m sitting in a sports car that probably costs more than my parents’ house. This fact isn’t lost on me.

I nod in agreement, and he smiles. “If you don’t mind playing against a loud-mouthed ten-year-old, then let’s go.” I push open the door, glancing over my shoulder at Jamie. “I’m not responsible for anything my parents or brother say. And if my mom offers to show you old pictures, please say no. She likes to embarrass me in front of guests since we don’t have them often.”

He chuckles. “Oh, hell no. I’m saying yes to that. Actually, now that you mention it, I might insist I see your baby pics.”

I roll my eyes and get out of the car. Jamie’s at my side in seconds, hooking his arm through mine to lead me up the stairs to my house. A wave of heat smacks me in the face when we step inside. It’s a welcome relief from the chill that was causing my teeth to chatter.

My dad is in the recliner in the corner. His head is tilted to the side to watch the television. Mom has her head down, eyes focused on the paperback book in her hand.

“I’m home,” I say to get their attention. When my parents glance in my direction, I point at Jamie. “This is Jamie, my boyfriend.”

My dad’s eyebrows rise in confusion as they should. I never told my parents about Jamie. In fact, I don’t offer much of my life outside of the mundane conversation about work and school.

“Boyfriend?” Dad’s tone indicates a question.

“Yeah.” I tug on Jamie’s hand for him to follow behind me over to the recliner.
