Chapter 17

Honor

Men were evil, lying, jerks.

That was all there was to it.

I slammed my door behind me, my back against it as I slid to the floor. The basket in my arms banged to the ground, unnoticed.

I couldn’t believe it. Was I that naive and gullible that I just believed whatever came out of Grey’s mouth? His incredibly sexy mouth that had my dreams on fire?

I groaned out loud, letting my head fall back against the door. It was official, I was pathetic.

I wanted a man so badly that I was completely blind to the fact that he was a dog just like the rest of them.

That whole speech he’d given me earlier was nothing but bullshit. I grew up on the part of Bloomfield where bullshit was the native dialect. I was fluent in bullshit! It was how I’d stayed clear of all the worse players that preyed on the girls in my school.

So why the hell hadn’t I seen through Grey Anderson? Those damn blue eyes and sinful, chiseled face had me completely blinded.

I couldn’t believe how light and excited I’d felt earlier after speaking with him in the hall. I’d been replaying and obsessing over our almost kiss the entire morning, and feeling guilty the entire time too.

And then in walks Grey with all his stupid words, bringing me hope and hypnotizing me with his baby blues, and suddenly I actually had hope. Hope that maybe there could really be something between us. That he actually wanted that too - that he felt something for me.

Hope was a dangerous thing. Because when it was gone, there was a gaping, empty hole there that ached.

I’d barely been able to stand there and look at him as he’d stood before me with Kelly tucked against him. The back of my throat had instantly ached, and when I’d felt that burn creeping into the back of my eyes, I’d known I had to escape quickly. I’d gotten out a quick, muttered hello to Kelly and made a beeline for my apartment.

Feeling deflated and stupid, I pulled myself up, grabbing my clean clothes, and headed into my bedroom. My eyes instantly went to the wall separating our apartments.

Oh God, I thought as I sat on my mattress. If I had to listen to them tonight, making...

I shook my head. No. No way. I wouldn’t be able to. If that happened, I’d call Perrie and go sleep at the house. There was only so much I could take today.

My phone buzzed on the nightstand, causing my stomach to turn. Please don’t be a text from Grey, I thought as I reached over and grabbed it. Adrien’s name lit up the screen. I couldn’t decide if I was relieved by that, or disappointed.

I was such an idiot.
