Exclusive Excerpt
"I've always liked your arms,"
Hannah states in a matter-of-fact kind of way.
Regular tipsy Hannah has returned.
Normally, as her best friend, I would just
ignore her so she doesn't say something she will regret later. However, this is
a rare opportunity for me to find out just what she is thinking. The real
reason behind her friends-with-benefits proposition. The alcohol in her system
has corroded a hole in the thick barrier she spent years building. A hole that
I am going to try to slip right through.
"Really? Is that your favorite part of
me?"
I snicker as she bops my nose with her
finger. "Boop. No, silly. It's your heart. It's what makes you so special.
What did I do to deserve you?"
I grin. "You broke my nose."
She guffaws at my clever quip, laughing
uncontrollably as she gasps for air. I give her a chance to catch her breath before
I undertake trying to pry information out of her.
"Han," I keep my eyes on the
road, but I don't have to see her to know I have her full attention. I can feel
it. "What is the real reason you asked me to sleep with you? What was
going on in that pretty head of yours?"
Silence pours over us. I don't know whether
she is collecting her thoughts or if she is ignoring my question. Regardless,
the silence is deafening. I hope she didn't pass out on me.
I sneak a peek to my right. Hannah's head
is bowed, her shoulders shaking involuntarily. It doesn't take a genius to know
she is quietly sobbing.
I ease over to the side of the road,
shifting the truck into park. Turning to her, I lean over and wrap her in my
embrace. After she rests her head on my shoulder, she breaks the silence.
"Why am I so unlovable? What is it about me? My hair? My eyes? My breasts?
Are they not adequate for you?"
"You are not unlovable, Han. Why would
you say something like that?" I rub my hand across her back, trying to
provide her some serenity.
"What other reason is there for every
man that I have ever gone out with to cheat on me? To betray me? To hurt me?
Something must be wrong with me. I must be unlovable." As she speaks, I
can feel the wetness of her tears dampening my shoulder.
In a harsh jerk, I push her out of my arms
and lift her head up. Our gazes lock, allowing me to see the yellow speck of
trouble in her blue eyes. "You can't be unlovable, Han, because I fucking
love you."
