I couldn’t stay away from him.

Matthew had mentioned he tended to fixate on things, but while I accepted it, I didn’t quite understand. Until he started consuming my every waking thought.

Until it was me who was fixated on him.

And that was why I found myself sitting in the Elite natatorium parking lot just a few hours after I’d left.

Were cavemen also stalkers?

At least the sun was up now, even if it was slightly hidden behind the rain clouds moving in. I mean really, though, I’d woken up practically in the middle of the night and went to my dorm after dropping off Matthew, showered, changed, and managed to finish up an assignment I had due tomorrow. Even after doing all that, I still had a few hours to kill before my classes started for the day—because this DJ doesn’t take early-bird academics. This DJ keeps his a.m.’s open because of all the late-night parties required.

Naturally (not stalkerly), I came back over here. The less than thirty minutes I got with Matthew this morning just weren’t good enough. The protein bar and secondhand coffee were a poor excuse for taking care of what was mine.

I didn’t have to wait long for the double glass doors to swing open and a group of swimmers to step out. Straightening, I peered out the windshield, scanning the faces for the only one I cared about.

He wasn’t among the group, and I relaxed back into the seat. Seconds later, another cluster of guys stepped out, much more familiar than the first.

My hand dropped to the latch on the door, but I realized quickly he wasn’t with his friends. Frowning, I watched Ryan, Jamie, Wes, Lars, and Win smile and talk amongst themselves while heading toward a row of four-door Jeep Rubicons. Parked beside them were two identical blue Corvettes.

These dudes—excuse me, bros—were something else. It was like they traveled in a pack. The thought had me frowning, eyes shifting back to the doors. Where was Matthew? Did the coach really make him swim extra? Asshole.

I glanced back to the group, noting Kruger was missing, and figured he was still inside too.

Jamie caught me looking, and with his stare fixed on my windshield, his lips moved. Not even a second later, the others turned to stare.

I waved. What the hell else was I supposed to do?

Then I thought better of it and dropped my hand. I probably shouldn’t have come. Matthew wasn’t out to his friends or his team. Me repeatedly showing up would only make people ask questions. Questions he wasn’t ready to answer.

I reached to start the engine but stopped myself. They’d already seen me. Firing up the engine and driving off really would make me look like a stalker. I’d just have to be more thoughtful about this shit from now on.

Even as I told myself that, part of me fought against it. The idea I couldn’t put eyes and hands on him whenever I wanted ignited a battle within me against my head and my heart.
