The next week I focused on getting my ass back on track, hitting the gym hard, and making sure the weight I’d lost found me again. It helped to keep busy, because while Roarke gave me the space I’d asked for… He also went way further, going back to not even looking at me or even trying to say hi.

“He’s done,” I argued with Zibon as he spotted me in the weight room. “I’m telling you, he’s done. It’s over. He’s pissed I made a scene in the cafeteria and maybe in the moment he was asking for forgiveness but once the dust settled he’s back to avoiding me.”

“Wally, you asked for time to think. You told him to give you space. Did you not mean it?”

“No, I meant it. I didn’t think that meant ignoring me when I walked into a room or looking anywhere but at me in the cafeteria. Fuck! I just don’t get him. Why does he have to run so hot and cold?”

“I hear that’s what the good love is made of,” Zibon chuckled. “Hot so hot it scalds you, and colds so drastic you have to hide under the covers and get all sweaty to fight it off.”

“Dude, stop reading the romance novels you’ve got on your Kindle you don’t think we all know about,” I drawled.

“I’m not ashamed of my reading habits,” he defended, even as his cheeks heated up all the way to his ears. “Doesn’t mean I’m wrong either. You said yourself you have off-the-charts chemistry in bed. Where do you think that goes when things aren’t working right? You went off the deep end. You don’t think he did too? He just shuts down differently. I bet he’s waiting for you to sit down at his table or knock at his door.”

“I knock at his door and there won’t be any talking going on.” I shivered at the idea, missing the way I felt with him like that. I dropped the barbell hard onto the stand, Zibon catching it before it bounced right back out.

“Okay, no more talking about this with you,” he joked. “Let’s grab dinner.”

“Oh crap,” I hissed, springing to my feet. “Evan asked me to meet up with him. He wanted to talk to me about something.” I threw on my sweater so I didn’t freeze leaving the main building and going back to the dorms to shower now that I was covered in sweat.

Zibon reached out and grabbed my arm. “Wally, did he say he had to talk to you about something or just asked you to eat with him?”

I thought about it and shook my head. “I don’t remember, why?”

“Well one’s more a date than just talking with a warrior about something.”

I rolled my eyes at him and headed out. I seriously doubted Evan was interested, and even if that was true, no one in their right mind would step into the very public mess Roarke and I had made of things.

Mostly him. I had just shown up to lunch drunk.
