Excerpt
Carly wasn’t the
typical sexy girl who walked by in the hall every day at school—she was a
special kind of beautiful, the type of beautiful that took your breath away.
And at that very moment, I was in desperate need of an oxygen tank. Carly
didn’t seem to realize how beautiful she was, which was another turn-on. I am in serious trouble of breaking my own
promise.
She cleared her
throat, jolting me out of my trance. “Gavin, there’s another reason why I’m
glad you showed up tonight.”
“There is?” I
wasn’t sure where she was going with this, but I patiently waited for her to
continue.
“I’ve wanted to
apologize.”
“For what?” I
quickly racked by brain, but couldn’t think of anything she’d ever done to
warrant an apology.
“For the way I
acted on our date the other night. I was rude,” she winced. She looked cute
when she thought she’d done something wrong. I ran my finger across the top of
her nose.
“Girly, don’t be
sorry. I should’ve been supportive.” This was the first time she hadn’t yelled
at me for calling her that. Taking it as a positive sign, I rambled on, “I was
a total dickhead, and if anything, I owe you another date.” The perfect
lead-in. “Carly, will you go on a real date with me? And not a double date,
because I don’t want to share you with anyone.” Okay, I did it. I broke down and asked her out when I’m not looking for
anything. And anything with Carly would be something. She’s not the type of
girl who is known for one-night stands.
