Me – Okay, I know he said he wanted to take this slow, but after eight weeks of sleeping next to each other each night... that takes on a whole new meaning.
Tatum – Wait... really?
Harlee – Y’all haven’t slept together yet?
Cassie – They’ve been sleeping, but nothing else apparently.
Lila – He just lost cool points.
Everly – It’s sweet... but that’s not like Dom.
Willow – Wait? Are you serious?
Willow – The fire and heat that simmered between the two of you?
Talia – Do y’all think he’s regretting it?
Cassie – I don’t know.
Harlee – Ask him.
Tatum – Agreed. Y’all need to communicate.
Lila – I’m still stuck on the fact that he hasn’t banged your brains out yet.
Willow – Ditto girl. Ditto.
Everly – What about making him jealous?
Me – Everly!
Everly – What?
Everly – I read it in a book, it worked.
Harlee – True.
Cassie – See him get all hot and bothered... I’m on board with this.
Lila – Agreed.
Tatum – I don’t know.
Harlee – Find someone, pay him, make it look good.
Willow – You don’t seem like the kind of girl who would do that.
I thought about it, I really did but making him jealous like that... it just didn’t seem right.
Instead, I texted my reply.
Talia – I can’t do that to him.
Talia – Fuck me. I forgot about the dinner I have planned with a new client.
What I didn’t know was that the girls had schemed behind my back.
