I took a few minutes to clean up, and when I came out of the bathroom, Lucas was lying on the bed, pants on but still undone, one arm flung across his eyes. I laughed, and he picked up his head.

“What?”

“Us. You’re still wearing all those clothes, even your shoes, and I’m wearing a bra and my socks.” I kicked up one gray-and-white-striped foot.

He smiled. “I wasn’t patient enough for sock removal.”

“I noticed.” Locating my underwear, which had dropped off my ankle sometime between you son of a bitch and I love you, I slipped it on and flopped onto my side next to him. “So…surprise. I’m here.”

He turned onto his side too, propping his head in his hand. “This was definitely a surprise. I was not expecting you.”

“I noticed that too.” I tried not to sound sarcastic. Not very hard, though.

“Why didn’t you tell me you were coming?”

My mouth fell open. Was he serious? “I was being sponfuckingtaneous! Isn’t that what you wanted? It’s not my fault you had your ex-girlfriend holed up in your apartment.”

“Hey.” He reached out and rubbed my upper arm. “Don’t get mad again. I’m happy you’re here. I want you here. And I really am sorry about earlier.”

Sorry about earlier? No. That was a little too vague for me.

I sat up. “Which parts are you sorry about, exactly? I mean, are you sorry you let her move in? Sorry you lied about it? Sorry you made me feel like an asshole in front of her?” The memory of what went on in his apartment had me all worked up again. I loved him, but I needed to hear him admit he was wrong.

“About all of it. I should have told you she was there. Better yet, I should have said no to her when she asked if she could stay for a few days.” He pulled me down again, then moved closer to me and brushed the hair back from my face. “You know, when you said that about Tucker, asked about how I would feel if I found out he was staying in your apartment, I wanted to put my fist through the wall.”

“Yeah?” The corners of my mouth lifted slightly. “Good.”

“Honestly, Jessica means nothing to me now, but you were right—I do feel guilty about the way things ended, and I guess I let that influence my decision. It seemed like something small I could do for her to make up for the painful way we ended things.”

“It’s not small at all. Not to me. And not to her either.”

He kissed my forehead. “I get that now. But you have to believe me when I say I have no romantic feelings for her whatsoever. You don’t really think I would sleep with her, do you?”

I shrugged. “I don’t know. I mean, maybe you wouldn’t intend to, but she’s so beautiful…what if she threw herself at you and you felt guilty or lonely enough to give in?”

He shook his head. “That would never happen.
