Me: You are sneaky.
Levi: I’ve been waiting for this text.
Levi: Pretty sure I’m actually a genius. Not only did I get to see you, but we were in a situation where you couldn’t yell at me AND now you’re coming to my game tomorrow.
Me: You seem pretty sure of yourself about that.
Levi: I know what I look like in my tight pants and jersey. You won’t be able to help yourself.
Me: The EGO. MY GOODNESS.
Levi: I just have a healthy love for myself. Do you know what else I have a healthy love of?
My heart flipsin my chest. I lie back on my bed, staring at the ceiling like it could give me some answers. I can’t deny that there’s an attraction with Levi. There always was on my part, but he also doesn’t seem to be going away like I thought he would. With the number of times he texts me, I’d be surprised if he has time to text anyone else.
I pull up my phone and read through his text again. “Do you know what else I have a healthy love of?” I repeat, smiling to myself.
Me: Graham crackers?
Levi: *laugh emoji* Where do you come up with this stuff?
Me: My brain.
Levi: I have a healthy love of your brain.
I sigh. If I’m honest with myself, this banter with Levi is far better than I could’ve imagined. When I was crushing on him before the fire, I only ever thought I’d be a one night stand. Two nights if I was lucky and could use the fact that we have mutual friends as bait, but this is completely different. Levi is pursuing me, and I don’t know… Maybe I am starting to see that he’s sincere.
I straight up yelled at him last night. Most guys would dip just because of that. I’d be “too much work” or some shit. Not Levi. His immediate reaction was to want to prove to me that he’s real. That has to account for something.
Me: So, say I do go to your game tomorrow…
Levi: I think it’s cute you’re still pretending that you’re not going to go.
Me: Levi…
Levi: Okay, so you do…even though we both absolutely know you are. You won’t be able to resist this:
Levi: Image.
I dissolve into giggles. This man. He always gets me laughing. I peer at the pic again. It’s him, standing in front of a full-length mirror. He’s twisted to the side but pushing his butt out and holding his sweats tight to show the curve of his ass.
Levi: Just picture this in my game pants.
Well, that’s about to send me into a search spiral. I pull up the browser on my phone and type inLevi Soucy butt.
Good. Heavens.
The number of images that come up is crazy. I have to say, he’s damn right about his ass. I already knew this about him from going to a game when Micah was wooing Raeann, but literally someone has a blog about Levi’s tush. How is this possible?
Me: Did you know you literally have someone on the internet who’s talking about your badonkadonk?
Levi: Has she added any new pics?
I burst out laughing. Of course he would know this. He’s so the type to search himself on the internet.
Me: Maybe I should send her the one you just sent me.
Levi: It would be amazing for her collection, but this is for Tab’s eyes only.
