"I just meant like, where did you grow up?"
I laughed.God, I'm such a mess.I took a deep breath and turned my computer on. "I grew up in Wilmington."
"Isn't that where Fight Club was filmed? What an interesting coincidence. So, did you at least hit her back?"
I looked up at him. "No."
"You should fight back, Fight Club."
"I have no intention of joining the dark side."
"I'm just saying...it's easier to fight fire with fire."
I shrugged my shoulders. "I just want her to disappear."
"I never said to kill her."
I laughed again. "That's not what I meant."
"I don't know. Rich people make people disappear all the time."
"I'm not rich," I said.
"You're about to be."
I shook my head. "You're ridiculous. Don't you need to go catch up with the tech department in the bathroom?"
"Maybe you should join us. You need to relax. So what if Hunter has a psycho ex? You won. He's marrying you."
"Thanks. But I'm going to pass on your enticing offer."
"I want in on whatever you two are talking about," Tavon said and plopped into his seat.
"We were just talking about how Zach gets high in the bathroom," I said.
"Shit, you told her about that? What the hell is wrong with you? She's sleeping with the boss, man."
I laughed.
"What, did you already tell him?" Tavon asked.
"I guess you'll never know." I hadn't yet, but I would eventually. I was pretty sure that James started his first tech company as a way to distract himself from his drug problem. And he spent most of his twenties getting over that time in his life. Hewouldn't be happy to know that his employees were lighting up in the bathroom. It wasn't a conversation I wanted to have with him two days before our wedding.
"You deserve to be fired, Tavon," Sierra said and sat down at her desk. "I'll tell Mr. Hunter myself."
"Oh, come on," Tavon said. "You knew what saying yes to a date with me would mean."
Sierra's face turned red. "I did not know. Where I'm from, people don't sleep with each other on the first date. You're disgusting. Tell him, Penny."
"I..." my voice trailed off. I had slept with James before we had even officially had a date. And he was my professor. I wasn't the one to lecture Tavon for being forward. "I mean, you have to read the situation."
Zach laughed.
"Oh my God," Sierra said. "Did you sleep with James on your first date?"
"Um, kind of?"
"Okay," Tavon said. "Tell us the whole story.
