Chapter 8
Of course, my immediate reaction was to reach out to Aaron for the first time in weeks.
I held my breath as I texted him
heyOlive: are you at the windermere hotel too
His reply was instant.
Amortis: Yeah
heyOlive: staying the night?
Amorris: I’m right next door to them
I wanted to hurl my phone into the wall. Once a cheater, always a cheater, and Vincent was no exception.
I’d been biding my time, waiting for Vincent’s “perfect boyfriend” charade to hit its peak before breaking up with him. I imagined him asking me why, promising he’d change, and begging me to stay.
I wanted to look him in the eye with the coldest, most nonchalant expression I could muster, to shake my head casually, and say, “No. I don’t love you anymore. We’re done.”
But now I doubted I’d ever get that chance.
Amorris: Do you want to come over…?
I wasn’t sure what I wanted. I didn’t even have time to think about it before he texted again.
Amorris: Please?
Amorris: I miss you
God, what a flirt. I didn’t want to give in that easily.

My eyes followed his open collar down to the outline of his pecs, then to the silhouette of his waist, clearly visible as the light shone through his shirt.
