“ARE YOU SURE YOU DON’T JUST WANT TO DROP THAT OFF AND GO
back to my place?” Lee glances at me as the light turns green and he takes
his foot off the brake. “It’s kinda early for dinner.”
I look down at the chilled pan of lasagna in my lap, the tin foil top
crinkling under my grip. “I know it’s early, but it’s not like we’re gonna eat
the second we get there.” I try not to take it personally that he doesn’t want
to try my cooking. “And it hasn’t been that long since Mandi’s surgery, so
she probably goes to bed pretty early.”
Lee drums his fingers on the steering wheel. “She’s not contagious or
something, is she?”
My mouth pops open and it takes me a moment to reply. “She had to
have back surgery because of a fall.”
I want to add so unless you can catch clumsiness, then no, it’s not
contagious. But the look of exasperation he aims my way is enough to shut
me up.
Pressing my lips together, I look out the window, letting Lee follow the
voice commands of the GPS to my friend’s house.
When we met last month, his highbrow, buttoned-up personality
appealed to me. He’d seemed sophisticated, and it had been a long time
since a good-looking man had been outright flirtatious with me.
I’d soaked up his charm like a sock in a puddle. And he was super
considerate on our first date. And still very kind on our second. But ever
since he opened the door for me today, he’s been a bit of a butthole.
I figured the whole sex on the third date thing was just a saying. But
he’s acting kind of… whiny. And I have to wonder if he’s being that way
because he thought we’d be sleeping together.
Which is stupid. Because this isn’t that sort of date. And he was the one
who volunteered to come with me today. Probably should have taken that as
a sign––the fact he weaseled his way into today when I told him I was free
tomorrow.
I use my fingers to make sure the tin foil is secure.
I hadn’t planned to introduce Lee to anyone until we were serious. And
now, I think it’s safe to say we won’t be getting serious because I have no
intention of seeing him again. This behavior isn’t attractive at all.
Plus, I know I told him that Mandi had surgery on two of her vertebrae.
Is she contagious?
Who asks that?
Lee turns on his blinker, slowing to take the turn onto Mandi’s street.
“If you don’t want to hang out, I totally understand.” I tell him, hoping
he’ll take the out I’m offering. “You could always just drop me off.”
“No,” he sighs, “I said I’d come, and I’m a man of my word. How
would it look to your friend if I didn’t show up?”
My teeth press into my bottom lip. This is my chance to tell him I didn’t
mention him to Mandi because I wasn’t sure he was really going to come.
