I bought a building. For BrewTech.
That should be safe enough, for now.
No shit! Congrats!
I don’t know what I was expecting from Alex, but excitement was not it.
Maybe he’s drunk. Or maybe he’s just been whacked in the head too many times from all the fights he gets in on the ice.
Who knows.
But for some reason his response makes me smile. Genuinely.
Thanks!
How long you staying?
Two more days, then I’ll be home.
A sense of panic rushes through me as I realize he might say something to my parents.
Or Savannah.
So I quickly tap out another text.
Can you keep that between us for now? I haven’t told anyone else yet.
I bite my lower lip, hoping this tidbit won’t cause him to blab my business to everyone in a five mile radius.
He responds with the zipper-mouth emoji.
You got it, bro.
The smile that crosses my face is one of relief. And strangely, warm.
It feels good to tell someone, even if that someone is my brother, and I can’t deny just saying it–or texting it—makes me feel even more excited.
I bought a building!
My boyfriend—yes, that is what I’m calling him even if he doesn’t know it—just scored amegagig modeling his fine ass for fucking Dior.
Everything is so fuckingperfect.I feel like my life is finally beginning.
The life I’ve always wanted.
This definitely calls for a celebration.
I get in my Uber, immediately googling the best restaurants in the city.
While I’d love nothing more than to whip up a gourmet meal from scratch, I know Cam likes to go out to eat, and we haven’t really done a lot of that while I’ve been here.
He’s adapted to my routines and put up with my sightseeing every day since I arrived. As much as I’ve loved every minute of it, I know it’s not what he usually does, and therefore I want to be able to do something for him.
He’s done so much more for me. He always has.
I know he’ll probably bitch about the price of the place I picked, but I don’t care.
Tonight I’m treating my boyfriend to a perfect Parisian meal, with a bottle of champagne, and then I’m going to take him home and let him fuck my brains out. Then I’m going to do the same to him.
