I decide to really throw Vanessa off. I open the spare room, rubbing my eyes, dragging myself to her, trying my best to look like she just woke me up.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8vjOYMAPS

"I-uh..." Before she can explain, Ben's door swings open. He emerges, shirtless. 757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoaJMWqEXX
"What the fuck do you want, Red?" He rubs the back of his neck, his muscles rippling with the movement. I tear my eyes away, before Vanessa can catch me starting. It was incredibly difficult. Seriously, I'm like a freaking saint right now.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYDcCY24HL
"I thought..." Her eyes move back and forth between us. "Nevermind. Where were you, Katarina? I was worried sick!"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNekUQPme7R
"I couldn't find you, and I drank too much, so I just went and laid down in the spare room since I knew it was empty." I hope it sounds convincing.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8V01FQO8fZ
"Oh ok. You just disappeared, so I didn't know..." Her eyes dart to Ben. I give a subtle head shake, to reassure her. "Okay, well... do you need to go then?" She glanced at him again. 757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp29t0P2cyo
She knows I'm not comfortable being around him and it's mostly thanks to her that I've been able to avoid him as much as I have. 757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lwQ9WIG2K
She's been very understanding and I've really appreciated it, but I am so glad all of that is over. 757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR31KnyFJoY
"Well, if that's all. Fuck off, Red." Ben returns to his room, slamming the door in my face. My mouth is hanging open, but I can't stop myself.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQIZIfNp88
What just happened? 757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡio3HkvMkXB
"Wow." 'Ness looks at me sympathetically before pulling me into a hug. "Sorry, girlie. I know you are avoiding him, but I didn't know what to think when I couldn't find you."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8JmXysaIRJ
I can't focus on what she's saying. What did I do? Crap, does this mean the deal is off? 757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fTo3XbFGe
I kinda wish I had his number so I could ask him what is going on.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7Vjz1OPMC
I pull out of her hug. I need to see him before we leave. "Yeah, I'm just gonna run to the bathroom real quick. Be right back."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PPdRrScxg
"Okay, hurry up so we don't run into the playboy again." I immediately lock the bedroom door and head into the bathroom.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSefPqgTfbt
He's leaning against the sink, with his head bowed. Was he waiting for me?757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ59bumBGJ6
He looks up, realizing I'm there. "Kat. Oh thank god, I'm glad you came back. I am so sorry for that." He steps forward to wrap his arms around me. "I figured it would be best to keep up appearances until we figure out how to break the news in a convincing way. I don't think she suspects anything, do you?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8w39cWHBzo
He hasn't stopped talking long enough for me to say anything, I open my mouth to expand, but he keeps going. He releases me from the hug, but doesn't step back. 757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxInOYGINZx
"I thought you would be pissed. Oh man, I thought for sure you would go full on hurricane. Red probably wants to kill me. We need a really good way to come out. Something big, but everyone has to believe it. Do you have any ideas?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tz9ErL1Oy
The only thing I can get out before he continues is "Hurricane?" But, I don't even think he heard me.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5tMcQrAnV
"I had a few ideas, but I don't think they are grand enough. We need a grand gesture." I have to stop him, I told Vanessa I would hurry and if I don't, she will come get me.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡim31QwDP9w
"Ben. I need to go. Are you okay?" I place my hand on his cheek. He leans into my touch and closes his eyes, relaxing instantly. 757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOe6mQ5Aw1
"I'm fine. Just got a little amped up, I think. Sorry about that." Should I be worried?757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYyhv7JBWb
"Listen, I know this is for you, but I was wondering if maybe I could tell my mom we're dating, just to get her off my back? If not, that's totally okay." He wants to tell his mom? 757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QOSoctBkz
"Uh... Sure. Yeah, of course. That will seem more realistic anyway."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PkXqV75qy
"Okay, great. Thanks, Kat. You're the best." He gives me another hug. 757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQvPJSpkR1
"I really should get going." I pull away, walking towards the door.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYRV0Moxgx
"Hey, wait!" He whispers loudly. "Let me see your phone real quick."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQtlEu1USj
I hand it over without question. What's the worst he can do?757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliLYGyYTd8
He hands it back and turns to leave without a word. 757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYFBCXjh0o
That was weird.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzisJRYdfP
I look at my phone. 757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUq5tuyOlno
Me: Hello, Handsome.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrncte0f5RV
He must have sent a text to his own number, so it looks like I said it to him. I roll my eyes. Conceited, much?757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrDo5hNINK
I feel a buzz and look at the phone in my hand. I can't hide the smile that over takes my face.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnermE4eTkT
