Oh, fuck! My ego was so damaged, and I couldn’t stand it!

Secondly, she avoids me.

“Yo, Alexander.” Leo tapped my shoulder as he stood next to me. Had it been an hour already? “Naomi asked me to tell you that your session is canceled today,” he said as he pushed his hands inside his pockets.

All I could see was red, and my ears began to ring loudly as I stupidly repeated what Leo said. “Canceled?” I tilted my head to the side, not believing what nonsense I was hearing. Since when did she cancel sessions?

“Yeah, that’s what she said.” He nodded innocently, probably feeling so proud for delivering Sweet Naomi’s message. A message I was not going to listen to, because I wanted to have my session. I have so much to tell her!

Getting up, I unbuttoned my top button. It felt like this shirt was suffocating me. What the fuck was she thinking?

I arrived just in time to find her locking her office. Oh, so she was going to run away?

“What are you doing, Miss Collins?” I smiled when she shrieked, turning around to face me. The look on her face was everything. Looking at my watch, I bit the side of my bottom lip and said deeply, “Surely you didn’t forget about our session.”

Her eyes looked everywhere but mine, and I only had to push her a bit more. “Right, Miss Collins?” I smiled innocently, and she widened her eyes as she looked at me. That’s right, fall for this smile, and tell me why the hell you ran away after we fucked?

“Uhm.” She cleared her throat as she held her phone against her chest. “I have a prior appointment, and I forgot to adjust our schedule for today,” she said softly, peering at me from under her lashes. Her cheeks were suddenly a pink tint, and she wouldn’t stop nibbling on her bottom lip.

Shit.

“So what does that mean?” I swallowed as I took a step closer to her, breathing in her fruity scent.

“I’m sorry—can we have a session tomorrow instead? I really have to go.” She didn’t wait for my response as she ran away, leaving me stumped. I stood in front of her door for a while trying to laugh myself out of shock.

Was Naomi really avoiding me?

I walked back to the common area after getting myself a cup of coffee, and I could not believe my eyes. I’d thought she had a prior engagement before me, and yet there she was chatting and laughing away with Coach and Leo and Aaron, while I remained sessionless.

If I didn’t know better, I would think she was really subtly telling me to fuck off, and she just didn’t want to admit it in my face.

Wow, I thought, clearing my throat. I brought my cup to my lips and took a long sip, staring right at Naomi, who looked conflicted.

Yes, I caught you at your prior engagement.

“Aaron, will you be having your session today?” I asked, and she closed her eyes, silently cursing under her breath.

“Yeah, after lunch,” Aaron answered, smiling happily. Aww, at least someone got to have their session.

“How exciting!” I muttered as I walked past them, suddenly feeling mixed emotions.

So what? It wasn’t like I ever liked having the damn consultations either way, so why did it matter if she canceled them?

Most importantly, why was I so pissed?

Chapter 13

Alexander

I thought I would be able to ignore it for the rest of the week and pretend as if her ignoring my entire existence was invalid, but seeing her smile like that was quite annoying. Look at her being so nice to everybody else but me.

“Jeff,” I called out to the batter as he walked past me with a bottle of water.

“Yeah?”

“Did you have your sessions this week?” I asked, knowing he was part of the group that had two sessions a week with Naomi.

“Yeah, bro.” He sipped his water, nodding. “Wassup?” he asked, raising his eyebrow. His hoop nose piercing lifted as he scrunched his nose.
