“It’s not.”
“Whose is it?”
She pursed her lips. “Umm... A friend’s.”
I frowned. “And you justhappento have it here with you in New York?”
“I like to sleep in it sometimes.”
No way in hell was I putting on some other dude’s T-shirt—a guy whose clothes she likes to sleep in.That was worse than when a woman stole your hoodie. I shook my head. “No thanks.”
“Why? I think it’ll fit.”
“I’m sure it will. But I’m not wearing the T-shirt of a man you like so much that you wear his crap to bed.”
Devyn shook her head. “You’d rather stay in a wet shirt?”
“Absolutely.”
She rolled her eyes. “Fine. I’ll put your shirt in the dryer.”
It took me less than a half hour to change the showerhead. When I was done, it worked, though it didn’t solve the problem of the spinning cold-water knob. “You’re going to have to use the pliers again tomorrow, but I’ll grab a new shower body on my way to the office.”
“Alright. Thank you.”
I packed up my tools and tossed the garbage into the wastebasket.
“Do you want a water or something to drink?” Devyn asked.
Even though I was still stewing over the stupid T-shirt she’d tried to give me, I didn’t want to leave yet. “Sure. Thanks.”
But out in the kitchen, the damn shirt was folded on the counter. I kept looking over at it as I chugged from the water bottle. Devyn followed my line of sight. When our eyes met again, I couldn’t help myself. “What’s the deal, Devyn? Are you married or something?”
She looked offended. “God, no. I wouldn’t have slept with you if I were.”
“Then whose T-shirt is it? A boyfriend or something?”
“Not really.”
“An ex?”
She sighed. “I don’t know how to label things with Robert.”
“Robert?”
“He’s a man I’ve been involved with for a few years. I guess you could say it’s casual, an on-and-off type of thing.”
“Is that how you want it? Casual, I mean?”
Devyn shrugged. “I don’t know. Robert’s an actor. I’m a casting agent. That’s how we met. But that was before he made it big. He’s busy a lot now, traveling for movies and stuff.”
“What movies has he done?”
Devyn looked away. “I probably shouldn’t say. He likes to keep his private life private, including our relationship.”
Robert sounded like a dumbfuck, if you asked me. I’d want every guy in the world to know this woman was mine. Yet I kept my mouth shut again and finished the rest of my water.
“So a casting agent, huh? Does that mean you pick which actors get movie roles?”
