Better For Me

Chapter 24: Broken Phones

Back in L.A.

Jai's POV

     I woke up to see Preston still asleep next to me. I got up trying not to wake him up because I had to work today and he didn't. I was getting my skinny jeans on when I realized that today was the first day I was going back to work being engaged. I ate some cereal and got my Kiki's Delivery Service bag and put my laptop in it and my lunch.

     I walked into Starbucks at the mall and was standing in line. A very good looking man came over to me, grinning. "Hey." he said. "Hi." I answered him pulling at my phone because I had just gotten a text. "You know it's rude to have your phone out when someone is talking to you?" he said. "I don't want to talk to you. Besides, my fiance is texting me..." OH MY GOSH! WHAT DID I JUST SAY?!?! I BET HE WANTS TO GET WITH ME EVEN MORE NOW! PRESTON WASN'T EVEN TEXTING ME! I HAD GOTTEN A NOTIFICATION FROM TWITTER! I thought. "Ooh, someone has a fiance." he said. "Why do you care?" I asked him. "Nevermind." he said looking up at the ceiling. "A good looking man like you can't pay for his own drink." he said. "Oh no. I'm a big boy, I can buy my own drink." I said. "Ooh, you're a big boy?" he said winking at me. "Fuck off." I said looking at my phone. "Oh, you're playing hard to get, aren't ya?" he said. I ignored him. "Oh, come on. A sexy man like you can't be tied down to 1 man." he said grinning. "All I came here to do was buy myself a iced latte and leave." I said. Just then I heard a phone drop on the ground. I looked over to who it was. I dropped my phone. It was Preston.
