I licked my lips and sighed.
“I am,” I said.
“Are you thinking about your ex?”
I grimaced in disgust.
“God, no!”
Teddy narrowed his eyes and leaned in close as if trying to study me.
“Then what?” he asked with a serious expression that made me chuckle.
I bit my tongue and sucked in my cheeks trying to suppress a smile.
“Well…” I said. “Dare.”
“Oh?” Teddy answered, then he smirked. “Oh!”
“Yup.” I nodded.
“What happened? Did he finally tell you he likes the heck out of you?”
“Huh? What do you meanfinally?” I asked, and it was Teddy’s turn to bite his tongue. “Teddy?”
He waited a moment before he spoke again, but I was so impatient it felt like eternity.
“I don’t know anything, but…”
“But?”
“Well, it’s pretty obvious to anyone with eyes you two like the pants out of each other.”
It was?
“It is?” I asked.
“Yeah?” he answered in a question that only made me more confused. “Are you telling me you don’t see the way he looks at you whenever he stops by the truck?”
I shook my head.
“Oh God. Wesley is right. You two are dummies.”
“Hey!” I groaned. “Tell your boyfriend we’re not dummies!”
“I don’t know, man. Autumn says the same thing and she’s known you longer.”
Autumn?
“Fuck,” I said. “Are you trying to tell me I could have kissed him sooner?” I sighed.
“Wait, you kissed?” Teddy slammed his hand on the counter and his eyes popped wide open.
My cheeks got instantly warmer as I nodded softly.
“Well, it was about freaking time,” Teddy announced to the room. “You two make a cute couple.”
“Oh I don’t know that we’re a couple. We’ve just kissed.”
