51. Supersonic on the Air

JILL POV

It was as if the nightmare that was Mac didn't happen because when she woke up next to Ivan in the morning, she had a whole new perspective. Maybe she should give Ivan a chance. What person had been there for her through everything, from day one of college? Ivan Pierce.

Though now she did not know how to act around him. Whereas they talked and texted on a regular before, now she didn't know what to say. In class, it was even more awkward.

"So Jilly, we should get together and toss ideas out over our shows. You in the a.m., me at night. Totally different topics, but we should still see what we can come up with."

Ivan was talking to her in class, but she was not paying much attention. When did his eyes get so gray? And he had a dimple? Since when? Did that magically just appear out of nowhere?

"Jilly! Girl, get your head out of the clouds. Do you even listen to me?"

"I was uh-"

"What did you think about my show last night?"

"Your show?"

"I started a dial-in, kind of like a quiet storm request line. Dedicate a song to someone special."

"Hmmm, really?" She should have been listening more, giving him her attention so he would know her feelings had changed.

Ivan looked her over and squinted his eyes at her.

"What? Why are you looking at me like that?"

"You've never listened to my show, have you?"

"Huh?" She had not, and now she felt bad telling him that. "So it's like...I have to get to sleep early because you know, I have to get up super early for my show."

"But we're supposed to be buddies, and I listen to your show every morning."

She smiled at him. "Really? What do you like about my show?"

"You know you're the girl, Supersonic. Everyone else is trying to be like you. Top slot, top star."

"I mean, I try."

"Still have the big head, I see."

That night she made sure she tuned into his radio show. She got comfortable in her PJs and wrapped her hair and put her bedtime scarf on them snuggled up in bed then played the station from her phone. Sure enough, Ivan was just getting started.

"Good evening ladies, fellas, Dr. Ivan The Love Doctor ready to get you in the mood."

Why did his voice sound super sexy? This wasn't his regular voice. It was deeper and sultry, perfect for night radio. She smiled in response, knowing this would be a great show. Ivan talked a bit about the previous show talking about meeting the right person, then tonight's topic was treating the right person right.

Callers called in requesting songs to play for their special someone and she wondered if she should sneak on, request a song, and dedicate it to Ivan. Maybe that would be too much, she at least had to tell Ivan what she was feeling.

"Tonight I want to dedicate a song to my someone special. I know she's listening, so I want to hit you with Bruno Mars and Silk Sonic, Leave the Door Open."

"WHAAATT?" she sat up in her bed, giddy with excitement that Ivan was playing a song for her. She got up from the bead and danced around as she sang out loud. Of course, he was still feeling her. Now all she had to do was just tell him she was ready for him.

The next caller to call in was a giggly, young-sounding girl but she was not asking for a request.

"Dr. Ivan, why are you so sexy? Was that song for me?" Again, she asked through giggles.
