"I swallowed hard. "Hey." "How you been? You look..." He pulled off his shades, his eyes immediately locking on mine. "Beautiful. My God." Heat crept up my neck. I tangled my fingers on the table, trying to ground myself and my nerves. His gaze dropped to my hands, and instantly, his jaw tightened.
