I turn quickly to Josh before he can call his ridiculous dibs on one of them.

“I call dibs on the blonde.”

He turns to me in shock and an incredulous smile spreads across his face.

“Would you look at that! Chandler Bishop calling dibs on a woman. You really are coming out of your cave.”

I roll my eyes and slowly uncurl myself from my seat. I’m not about to tell him that the only reason I am is because I can’t stand to look at her friend all night long and see Tanya in her.

“Whatever, man. Are we going to make a move or are we just going to sit here like insecure boys waiting for them to make theirs?”

If there was anything to get Josh to shut up and get moving, it was a threat to his masculinity.

“You keep talking like that, and I’m going to be taking home both women.”

I snort at his bravado and shove him as he walks by me. I follow after him and watch as he turns on his charm and smiles at the women. I don’t know if I’m up to this. I’ve been with my fair share of women in the last nine years, but every time feels like a betrayal to Tanya. Like I’m cheating on her.

Josh turns to me and introduces me to the ladies, and I do my best to pull myself out of the dark hole I can feel myself start to fall down. Josh is right, it’s time that I pull myself up and start to move on. I will always love Tanya, but I can’t take the empty, lonely feeling anymore. My world has been cold since she’s been gone, and I want to find the warmth again.

I’m sitting on one of the black leather couches in the VIP section, in a secluded dark corner where the lights from the main floor don’t quite reach, with the tall, strawberry blonde woman from before straddling my lap. Her body is thin and lean, and I can’t stop running my hands all over her. Her long legs are on either side of me, and her black dress has risen to the curve of her ass. Her long, thick hair is tickling my hands as I run them up her back to cup her head. We’ve both had a few drinks, and Josh and her friend ditched us long ago. Probably in a similar position as we are. We’ve been making out pretty heavily for a while now, and by the way she keeps grinding into me, I know where she’s wanting this to go. Back to one of our places. We’re both too tall for this couch, and there isn’t much room for us to do more.

I run my hands back down her back before sliding them around her back and down to squeeze her ass in my hands. She moans when I pull her closer and cause her center to grind into me. She pulls away to breathe, and I trail my lips down her neck, pulling the strap of her dress off her shoulder to reveal more of her cleavage. I nip at her skin, and she gasps.

“Let’s get out of here.” Her voice is breathless.

I pull away from her and look up into her eyes. They’re a hazel greenish color.

They’re the wrong shade.

The thought crosses my mind before I can stop it, and it leaves a bitter taste in my mouth.

“I don’t think that’s a good idea.”

I remove my hands from her body and gently push her off of my lap and onto the cushion next to me.

“In fact, I think we should stop. I apologize for making you think there was going to be more, but I can’t.”

I don’t look at her as I stand from the couch. I know she’s probably pissed that I ended things the way I did and right when she is expecting us to take things further, and I don’t want to wait around for the argument.

“She wrecked you, didn’t she?”

I freeze at her words, then spin around to face her.

“What?”

If Josh told her about Tanya, I’m going to kill him.

“Whoever broke your heart. She did a number on you, huh?”

She stands from the couch and fixes her dress as she steps closer to me.

“Did Josh tell you this? Did he want you to get to know me so that we would sleep together?”

She tilts her head to the side and furrows her brow in confusion. I feel a little bad jumping down her throat, but I need to know if Josh is trying to pull strings. Her eyes search mine like she’s looking into my soul.

“No, he didn’t say anything to me. I can just see it.”

My back straightens at her words, and I start to turn away, but she gently grabs my arm.
