“Already,” Chelsea asked as she took the envelope and looked inside. Her eyes bugged out.

I took a dainty sip of my drink.

“I can’t wait to hear how you managed that,” Gwen said.

Chelsea put the money away. “Yeah.”

“He didn’t want me to feel pressured,” I said.

Gwen lips pursed like she was concentrating.

“Pressured to do what?” Chelsea asked after and sip.

Unable to hold it in, I blurted it out, but in a hushed tone. “We’ve gotten intimate.”

Gwen beat Chelsea to the punch. “I knew you were fucking him now. You’ve got that glow. That platonic shit couldn’t last. Not living in the same space as a man that hot.”

I nodded through my blush. “It turns out he’s not at all the devil I thought he was.”

“Except in bed I hope,” Gwen said.

Chelsea stayed quiet.

“He has big hands,” Gwen said with a questioning look. “So, does he also have…”

Our server interrupted Gwen. “How are you ladies doing?”

“Fine,” I answered.

Chelsea pointed at her empty glass. “I’ll take another.”

Gwen placed her palm over her glass with a shake of her head.

“I’ll be right back with that drink.”

“Is he as good a kisser as they say?” Chelsea asked, finally getting into the conversation.

My smile said it all. “Better.”

“So how did this happen?” Gwen asked.

“Let’s see,” I started. “First he saved me from falling off his building, then his father came over and threatened to fire Evan if he didn’t break up with me.”

Chelsea lifted her gaze from the empty glass. “How do you know?”

“I was in the other room. I heard it all.”

“Almost sounds like my father,” Chelsea mused.

I nodded while taking a gulp of my drink. I’d never cared for her father, but this news cemented that.

Gwen shook her head. “That’s low. No wonder you hate that family.”

I took a big swig before continuing. “Oh, yeah. Then I marched in and told his Dad to go fuck himself.”

Chelsea’s mouth dropped open. “You told off his Dad?”

I nodded. “Sure. How was I supposed to know that was against the rules? It’s normal in my family to call an asshole an asshole. Apparently the rich think they’re above that.” I laughed. “He didn’t take it well.”
