Holy shit, no way.

I haven’t seen Matteo since I spent the night at his house last weekend. I was afraid it would feel weird waking up in his bed, but he woke me up with the best blueberry pancakes I’ve ever had before he had to leave for a morning skate.

Matteo

That means I can finally send you these.

Jade

Huh?

Matteo

Two tickets to my game.

I’ve been waiting until you were finished, just so it didn’t feel like an obligation or set you back in some way.

My throat constricts as I read over his message three separate times. With the way he’s been with me, there’s a part of me that refuses to believe his reputation wasn’t just an exaggeration.

A link comes in his next message and it’s two tickets to a game later this month.

Matteo

Bring whoever you want, as long as it’s not another guy.

Jade

I would never do that.

Plus, there is no one else.

Matteo

Same for me.

Maybe we can keep it that way?

My heart comes to a full stop inside my chest. Is this his way of saying he doesn’t want either of us sleeping with anyone else? Because it sure as hell feels like it.

Jade

I would like that.

Matteo

Me too.

Theo and I are going to the bar tonight. Want to come?

Between his game schedule and me on the last leg of my deadline, we haven’t seen each other all week.

Jade

I don’t want to impose on your plans.

Matteo

Sunny, I would drop any fucking plans if you asked me to.
