There are too many rules to such a game that are purported to have no strings attached. I don’t like questioning my behavior, questioning theirs. This is why hookups never work for me: I don’t like having to mentally process it all after. I knew it last night-even when it was so good I kept thinking, I don’t want this to end, I don’t ever want him to come and this to be over-and my instinct is reaffirmed now as I watch yet another brunette sidle up next to him. Not even a little.īut I’m not looking for a repeat. Which-let’s be real for a second-wouldn’t be the worst idea I’ve ever had, because when Luke claimed he knew what he was doing? He wasn’t lying.
I can’t quite make out his reaction, though, and I wonder briefly if he’s disappointed that I’m not falling all over myself to see him or asking for a repeat performance. They head straight toward me, but when I do nothing more than get them drinks and go about my business, I think Luke gets it. It’s also why it takes me a moment to get my bearings when he walks into Fred’s with Not-Joe, Oliver’s goofy employee and one of my favorite people. I never planned on seeing Luke again, which is exactly why I didn’t bother correcting him when he kept calling me by the wrong name. I’m fairly certain we were both clear on that point. It’s also supposed to be a one-time thing. Thankfully, it’s there and gone, replaced just as quickly with What the hell is he doing here? Sex with a guy like Luke is supposed to mean multiple orgasms and a smile you have to explain to your friends the next day. IT’S NOT LIKE I’ve never done this before-had a one-night stand-but the number of guys I’ve slept with is still small enough that when I see Luke walk into Fred’s the next night, the thought I’ve had sex with him is the first thing that flashes through my head. “How’s it going?” she asks, and then bites her bottom lip. Her lips are sticky with gloss, eyes lined heavily with dark mascara.
I lead our little group away from the bar and lean closer to Aubrey so we can hear each other over the shouting and cheers from the overhead TVs.
