How’d that work out?
Sunny
Not well, since I caved and texted you.
My palms itch and–fuck–I want to see her. Ineedto see her.
Matteo
I can’t stop fucking thinking about you.
Sunny
Yeah?
Matteo
Yeah. It’s becoming a problem.
It’s fucking me up. It’s making me fuck up.
Sunny
So, what do we do about it?
Matteo
I need to get you out of my system.
Just once…
Sunny
Do you think that will fix your problem?
Matteo
Yes.
Sunny
Come by tonight.
Holy shit.
Matteo
I’ll be there in an hour.
My heart races and for a moment, I forget I’m in the same room with my teammates.
“Did she ever say anything about reading one of her books?” Shaw adds in.
Theo whips his head to the side. “You’re the worst at reading the room.”
Shaw shrugs. “He never said anything about it.”
I lock my screen, clearing my throat and tucking my phone into my front pocket. “She said we can read one for Cross’ book club.”
