CHAPTER FOUR

Haylee

My stomach is queasy as I spray two spritzes of perfume against my neck. I press my hands against the cool tiled edge of the counter top and bow my head focusing on my breathing. I need to get it together and shake off these nerves that are clinging to me. I’ve done so well these last few years shutting off my emotions and allowing myself to do what I do without letting my emotions getting involved. I’ve always looked at what I do as an adventure. Just a young twenty-something dating rich and powerful men while making an income. Not once while doing this did I view myself like one of those women who walk the streets at night selling themselves to anyone who’ll pull over and give them a few hundred dollars.

But, Friday night changed all that. Having sex with my student has seriously fucked with my head. It’s knocked me off of my game and has me questioning everything I am doing.

My phone buzzing against the tiled sink snaps me back to reality.

My driver is three minutes away.

You need to get it together. Pull on your big girl panties and remember why you are here.

Swiping the screen, I open the text and reply by letting him know I’m ready. Even though that’s the farthest thing from the truth. The closer I get to having to return to work tomorrow, the more I feel myself freaking out. How the hell am I going to act like nothing has happened and that Nate doesn’t know about my dirty little secret life.

This has been the most stressful three days of my life. I was supposed to have brunch with him yesterday, but thanks to the all-nighter I pulled with Nate the night before, I was too exhausted to meet with him. Instead, I went home and napped before getting ready for the football game and my stupid double date.

Of course no matter how much I tried to not like Jaylen, I found myself slowly warming up to him. He is easy to talk to and be around. But, I can’t help but feel I’ve met the right guy at the wrong time. He’s the kind of man your parents’ wish for you to marry. Stable guy with a career who has his head on straight, but your life is a train wreck at the moment that it’s simply impossible to allow anything to come from it.

Then there’s Nate. I cannot get that damn man out of my head! It’s like no matter how many times I tell myself to stop thinking about him—the more I find myself thinking about him!

After I got home from the football game last night, I lay in bed for an hour staring at the screen of my phone. I kept typing a text to Nathan, but then I would find myself deleting it and deciding I needed to be firm with my decision for no more contact with him outside of school. We have to keep our relationship professional.
