CHAPTER FOURTEEN

JESS

This was not happening. Was. Not. Happening. A buzzing sensation started in my ears and then spread throughout my whole body. It brought the blood back to my limbs, making it so I could stand on my own.

I’d been making out with Logan Hunt.

Logan freaking Hunt.

And it had been the most fantastic thing I’d ever experienced.

I said the only thing I could think of. “Why are you Batman?”

His voice still had that sexy, gruff quality to it. “I thought it would be funny. Because I make such a better Batman.”

True. He didn’t need fake musclessssss. I shook my head. So not the point.

“You were supposed to text me when you got here!” How had this happened? I’d been so careful and tried hard to prevent this very event from happening.

“I wanted to surprise you.”

“Yeah, well, mission accomplished!” He’d surprised me, all right. By not wearing what he said he was going to wear. “And you were supposed to be a cowboy!”

“I never said I was going to dress up like a cowboy.” He sounded defensive. Admittedly, I had been the one who had thrown myself at him and ruined everything.

Because I didn’t know it was him!

Or had I?

My brain was too muddled and confused from his touch to figure anything out.

I became aware of the fact that my lips still burned, still wanted him back. It had been better before the kiss. At least back then I didn’t know how it would be between us. I could imagine, pretend, but I didn’t actually know.

Now I knew, and the knowledge of what it was like to kiss him was eating me up inside. How was I supposed to walk away from him now?

“Jess, we have to talk about what just happened.”

No, we did not. I happened to be excellent at living in denial. “It was an accident. I thought you were Ben. I was trying to make a big move.”

He let out a short bark of laughter. “That was definitely a big move. You won the game.”

“Only I was playing the wrong team.”

“You knew I wasn’t Ben.”

His claim shocked me so hard that I couldn’t speak, couldn’t breathe. Because I’d just been wondering the same thing.

Was he right? Had I known all along he wasn’t actually Ben? Was that a lie I’d told myself because the second his lips touched mine I knew it was Logan, felt it in every fiber of my being? Even if I pretended like I didn’t? Had I wanted this for so long now that I was willing to lie to get what my body ached for?

“That’s . . . that’s not true,” I said weakly.

“I don’t know if you’re trying to lie to me or to yourself, but that was you, and that was me, and we both knew it.”

My head was swimming with self-recriminations and his accusations.

“Jess, what just happened, I’ve never felt that way with anyone, and I think that it means—”

“It didn’t mean anything,” I told him, panic threatening to drown me.
