She rests her head on her fist, eyeing me. “I’m guessing you had your fair share of setbacks?”
“Every time it felt like I was making some progress, it seemed like I took a giant leap backward. It fucking sucked.”
“You’re looking good now.”
“You noticed?” I quirk a brow at her.
Ever since she showed up at Scott’s gym, I’ve been pushing myself a little harder. Getting an extra set in. Adding a little more weight.
I want to impress the woman whose heart I broke all those years ago. Show her that I’m still the same guy.
“Everyone in there notices you.”
“I don’t care about everyone.”
Her eyes widen a fraction. I could get lost in those deep brown orbs of hers. The way she bites down on her bottom lip. I notice everything about her.
Everything.
She’s the only person I have eyes for.
“Logan, I—”
“Here you go,” Peter interrupts.
Damn it. If only he took a bit longer getting her order.
“I’ll see you tomorrow.” Audrey smiles at me before grabbing her earbuds to pop in her ears.
“You will.”
God, everything about this is turning me back into the bumbling idiot I was when I first met her.
“Could you have picked a worse time to come back?” I hiss. Sometimes my brother is so lost in his own world that he doesn’t catch on to things.
“You said it wasn’t about her,” he argues. “Which, it totally is, by the way.”
“Stop it.”
“Hey Audrey!” Peter calls out.
“What are you doing?”
Fucking interfering family.
“Yeah?” She pulls an earbud out of her ear.
“You two want to test out one of the new igloos we got for the roof later this week?” Peter asks. “It’d really be helping us out.”
It takes everything I have not to groan at my interfering brother. I feel like I’m back in high school and can’t get a girl to go out with me on my own.
Audrey’s eyes flick between the two of us.
“Me and Logan?”
“Yeah.” His grin is huge.
Audrey looks to me with a small smile on her face. “Sure.”
