The balmy day had given way to a much cooler evening, but Nathan and Jared didn’t seem to mind as they sat outside on the balcony of the condo. Their parents had already turned in for the night, and Jared was getting ready to head back to the team hotel once he finished his beer.

“So, you seemed awfully touchy today when I was mentioning guys to introduce to that girl,” drawled Jared. “Any particular reason?”

Nathan tried to seem as nonchalant as possible. “Mom seems obsessed with her for some reason. I was just trying to steer the conversation away from her.”

Jared took a swig of his beer. “Bullshit. I can read you like a book. You didn’t like the idea of me introducing her to my whoring buddies because you want her for yourself.”

“Now you’re the one spouting bullshit. Don’t forget I’m engaged.”

Jared gave a hoot. “Hell, I’m happily married and have a baby at home. Doesn’t mean I can’t appreciate the finest piece of booty I’ve ever seen. You’re only engaged, bro, plus you get to check out that smokin’ hot chick every day. Don’t know how you’ve managed to hold out this long.”

Nathan hesitated. What had happened between him and Julia in New York had remained a deep, dark secret between the two of them so far. But he’d longed to unload the guilt he’d felt for long months now, and he trusted Jared more than anyone else.

“Can I tell you something?” he began. “Something you have to abso-fucking-lutely swear is only and always just between us?”

Jared grinned. “Oh, this sounds like it’s gonna be juicy.”

“I’m serious, Jare. This is something big. It’s been bothering me for months now, and I haven’t had anybody I could talk to about it. Please.”

Jared instantly sobered. “Okay, sorry. Yes, you know I won’t tell anyone. Even Brooke. You can trust me, bro. Always.”

“All right, then.” He took a deep breath. “I first met Julia back in September. In New York. I was attending a conference and she was living there at the time.” He ran a hand over his face. “And so help me God, I’m pretty sure I fell in love with her the minute I saw her face.”

Jared’s light blue eyes, so similar to his own, widened.”Shit, not the L word. That’s pretty deep, Nate. So what happened exactly?”

Nathan related the series of events – seeing Julia twice before finally asking her out for a drink. He skimmed over the more intimate details of their night together, but Jared certainly got the picture.

“So let’s see if I’ve got all this. You see this woman a couple of times, develop some sort of fixation with her, finally ask her to have a drink with you, fuck her like an animal, and then say the next morning, ‘Sorry, babe, gotta run back to my fiancée now?’ That’s kinda harsh, Nate, especially for a nice guy like you. Now, my buddy Mitch I can totally see doing some douchebag thing like that, but you – what the fuck, bro?” asked Jared in disbelief.
