Elaine suffocates us with options. She brings out two trays of vegan appetizers.
Three of non-veg appetizers.
Five flavors of cake.
"I'm so sorry about this. Can I get you anything else?" Elaine offers Josephine the world's saddest smile.
"More tea." Josephine runs her pointer finger over her mug. Fights a frown.
She always tries to play cool about being left out.
I always see through it.
For a long time, I knew how to read her. All it took was one glance and I'd know exactly what she was thinking.
But, somehow, I lost that.
It was a domino effect. Once I stopped understanding her, I stopped understanding everyone.
I get Zack and Mercy most of the time.
But only most of the time.
"Of course." Elaine sighs with relief. "I'll be right back."
Josephine nods a thank you. She brings the digit to her lips. Sucks the flavor from it.
Fuck, the places my mind goes.
She still responds to me.
She's accidentally touching me.
Staring like she wants to rip my clothes off.
But her intentions are crystal clear.
She isn't mine.
And I'm not hers.
Elaine marches into the back room.
Josephine turns to me and raises a brow.
I offer my best shrug.
"She takes this job seriously," she says.
"She probably takes everything seriously."
Josephine laughs. "Probably." Her eyes light up.
Her joy cuts right to my soul. I want more of it. All of it.
We've already picked everything.
It's down to cake.
"You have any thoughts?" I motion to the tray of samples.
She shakes her head.
"Katherine sent you. As far as I'm concerned, you're in charge."
She turns to me. "I'm in charge?"
I nod.
She shakes her head. "Those words have never come out of Hero Fiennes Tiffin's lips."
"You don't know what kind of Kit Harrington shit I've been trying."
A laugh spills from her soft pink lips. "You have not."
I shrug maybe, maybe not.
She shakes her head. "No. You'd never. I remember that vividly." Her pupils dilate.
My cock whines.
It's desperate to be inside her.
My entire body is desperate for hers.
It doesn't give a fuck that she broke my heart and sent my thoughts in circles.
Only that she still blushes when I tease her.
