“Because Trey thought you and I…”
I can’t bring myself to say the words.
Dating…?
Screwing…?
“They’re idiots,” Cutter says.
I find myself short on words because I’m thinking about having sex with Cutter.
No! Not in the literal sense! I mean in the sense that his baseball buddies think that…
“Mom, I’m hungry.”
I turn and Saxon is standing behind me.
I blink a few times.
“Grab a slice, kid,” Cutter offers.
“No,” I say.
“Yes,” Cutter says. “It’s all good. Grab a slice. Grab two. Find Bethany and get a drink. It’s all taken care of.”
Saxon thanks Cutter and steals a slice, then runs back toward the arcade.
I look at Cutter once more.
“I know you want to go back to keeping an eye on your son,” he says to me. “Let me pick up the check for all the food and drinks. That’s my apology for what my friends did.”
I find myself nodding again.
I don’t nod like this. Ever. Not because of some good-looking man. No. Never. Ever.
Cutter reaches and touches my right hand. “Maybe we can continue this conversation again sometime soon?”
Cutter’s phone starts to ring and he apologizes and tells me it’s his agent and he has to take the call.
I watch him walk off toward the door and go out into the night.
I sit there, sort of flabbergasted.
With one question on my mind.
Did Cutter Buckley just ask me out on a date?

Crash course lesson into dating a single mom - you wait until things are worked out with the kid first. Which I personally could not agree more with.
Dating a single mom…
I keep telling myself I am not dating a single mom.
I’m just going to take a single mom out on a date. Simple as that.
