Jesse

I was really starting to get pissed off.

Dane had been ignoring me for three days. Three. Fucking. Days. And for what? That was the part I couldn’t quite figure out. Was it because of what he heard with Sky? I mean, it was true. We weren’t serious, and I highly doubted he wanted to be. Hell, he was the one who wouldn’t even fuck me again, so what was I supposed to say? Maybe I could have found a better way, but he also could have talked to me instead of running out like that.

I rolled the lip gloss between my fingers. But this…this had been nice. It was the last thing I expected, for Dane to have gone back and purchase it for me. Sure, part of me was embarrassed because he obviously must have known I wanted it and couldn’t afford it, but he didn’t have to go back and buy it for me…yet he had…and that made my stupid crush-like feelings multiply.

Maybe it was better he was being a jackass right now, and that would help me get over him. I had no business crushing on Dane.

Grumbling, I got out of bed, showered and dressed, but didn’t put on any makeup. I made my way to class, realizing I was tired, yeah, but I’d felt less worn-out lately. In a lot of ways, I was doing more than I typically did, by adding hanging out with Dane and Hailey on top of everything else, but I wasn’t as exhausted and hadn’t had a headache in a while.

It was hard to make myself focus on the lecture, but I tried. Ugh. Boy problems never got in the middle of my responsibilities. This was why it was better just to fuck and not sort-of-like someone…especially someone grumpy, who had a habit of making accusations and then running out on you before you could explain. Clearly, I was still upset.

Somehow I managed to get through the rest of the class. As I was walking back to the apartment, I pulled my phone out, my fingers punching through an angry text. Hey…done pouting now so we can talk?

He replied quickly. I’m not pouting. I’m just…over it?

Over what? OMG, Dane! Are you watching Hailey right now?

Walk away, Jesse…just walk away… No matter how many times I told myself that, I couldn’t seem to do it. What sort of grumpy superpower did this man have over me? Because he was sweet, loved his niece, and fucked really damn well?

No, he replied a minute later.

Come over. Come over to my apartment, or I’m coming to your house, and I’m sure you don’t want me to do that right now. We need to talk.

Fine. I’ll be there soon.

Fine. I’ll be here waiting.

Shit. Why did I make it sound like I was sitting around waiting for him? Because apparently, I would be.

I got back to the apartment, which I knew would be empty since Seth was at school. I paced back and forth like…hell, I didn’t know.
