“That’s him. She told me when we first met that she’d take him back if he asked.”
“Even after the shithead cheated on her?”
“Yeah. I don’t know if she’s changed her mind about that. She never talks about him, at least not to me.”
Logan rubbed his jaw and looked thoughtful before saying, “You two have been together for several weeks now.”
Yes, and she’d never uttered the words ‘I love you’ to him. Of course, he hadn’t told her either. But he’d come close. “True. But…sometimes it feels like we’re just doing the ‘this is fun but not at all serious’ thing. And I’m not sure how to change that. Or if she even wants to change it.”
“You’re never going to know unless you tell her how you feel,” Logan said.
“I almost told her but then I chickened out.”
“I get that. It’s hard to put yourself out there.” Liam added, “But it’s worth it.”
“If she feels the same. But if she doesn’t…” If she didn’t, she’d tell him. And that would be the end of any chance he had to move on with his life. To stop fearing whatmighthappen and live in the present.
Yes, he’d had fun. He’d enjoyed the women he’d been with. Most of them, anyway. But none of them had touched him deep inside. Like Casey’s death had.
Like falling for Sierra did.
