Chapter 26

Monday

I walked into the classroom and my eyes immediately gravitated toward Penny. All I wanted to do was walk over to her and pull her into a kiss. Saturday was still fresh in my mind. Honestly, she was all I could think about. And having to keep my distance on campus was proving harder than I ever imagined. This semester was going to be torture.

The way I was thinking about her was borderline obsessive. I wanted to believe Dr. Clark. He didn’t think my past would be an issue. But he didn’t know me. No one here really knew me. For just a second I let myself stare at Penny unabashedly. Would she run if she uncovered my secrets? Would she fear me?

My thoughts came to a stop when I noticed the rose sitting on her desk. A rose that wasn’t from me. We’d just talked about being exclusive. I ran my hand through my hair as I placed my satchel down. And we’d spoken specifically about Tyler. She claimed he was a friend, but clearly that feeling wasn’t mutual. Tyler had a dumb smirk on his face as if he had Penny right where he wanted her. Not a chance in hell. She’s mine.

Breathe. But it was hard to breathe slowly when I was seething. The baggage I carried around already stacked the odds against me. I didn’t need some immature frat boy getting in my way too. Just friends my ass.

"Speeches start next Monday,” I said. “And this time we'll go backwards in the alphabet. So last names beginning with Z through N will go on Monday and M through A will go on Wednesday." If Penny was going to flirt with other men, I was going to punish her for it. "I don't want nerves to be as big of a factor for this speech. It's important to feel comfortable in this room. So let's all share something a little more intimate today." I was going off my lesson plan yet again. But I needed to make sure that Penny and I were still on the same page. "Oh, I have an idea. I had an amazing date this weekend."

A few girls in the classroom sighed, but not Penny. She was just staring at me intently, probably eager to hear that I’d had a great night with her.

"Romance, dinner. The whole package.” I couldn’t really go into more detail than that without being inappropriate in more ways than one. “So how about everyone shares what their ideal first date would be. And let's switch things up today and start at the end of the alphabet so we get a feel for how next week's speeches are going to go. Adam Zabek, start us off." If I was competing for Penny’s affection, I’d make sure to pull out all the stops. But first I had to figure out what she wanted. I tuned out the first few answers.

"Penny Taylor,” I called.

She stood up. "I like piña coladas and getting caught in the rain.
