refused to go on a date with him or if it is something else.”
“I thought you guys went on a date already,” Neel winked.
Crap. He knows everything.
“Heck no, we did not,” I objected not willing to give in.
Neel laughed and said, “Relax Vinnie, I was kidding. I can’t get a single word out of him about you, and I was hoping to get some from you.”
“That’s because there is nothing going on between us,” I declared.
Liar liar!! Pants on fire!!
“Vinnie, just in case you were on the fence about him, he is a good guy. He’s just not into serious stuff,” Annie said softly and Chloe nodded vigorously.
“Unless it’s different with Vinnie,” Neel interjected.
“What do you know Neel, and why aren’t you telling us anything?” Annie’s voice blared through the backroom of the boutique.
“Reyan didn’t tell me anything but I’ve known him for so long, I can guess a few things,” Neel said smiling at us.
“What’s that supposed to mean?” I asked unable to bear the suspense.
“He had no need to go to New York this week, but he did. It almost seems like he was going away to think about something, something very important like Vinnie.”
“Stop it, Neel!! You are getting too dramatic about it.” I shook my head.
“He is right Vinnie. Reyan does want more from you,” Annie said with confidence.
Chapter 10
I sat next to Annie at a private booth on Friday night, twenty minutes before the event started. Annie was busy talking to the guy she had met on the dating website. Neel, Chloe, and Eddie were on the way, and I was missing Reyan terribly. I would probably beg him to not disappear from my life if he were to show up at that point. I remembered that I had less than twenty-four hours before I saw him and to decide if there was going to be an ‘us’ between him and me. I went all week tormented by not hearing his voice or having any kind of communication with him.
I spent a long ten minutes watching people trickle into the club. I finally got sick of looking around and pulled out my phone and texted Reyan.
Me: Hey, thanks for the party...it's so much fun without you
Reyan: Liar!!
Reyan: Missing me baby??
Me: Maybe I am
Me: I would have let you be my date if you were here..
Reyan: Really??
Me: Oh yes, too many guys hitting on me and I had to tell the guys I was waiting for my date..
Reyan: What would you do if your date showed up?
Me: You’ll never find out…
Reyan: What if I were your date...
Me: You can't...u r not here
Reyan: What if I was..
Me: Well, I would let you sit next to me and lick, sip, and suck…
I broke off the sentence on purpose and hit send smiling looking at the tequila shots the waitress was setting up in front of us.
Reyan: Suck on??
I laughed looking at my phone and that caught Annie’s attention.
“What’s so funny?” she whispered.
I showed her the messages I had sent to Reyan and continued to laugh.
“You guys text each other like this?” she asked completely taken aback.
“I am just messing with him Annie. I know he is in New York,” I clarified.
“I am sure Reyan is figuring out how to get back tonight after that lick, sip, and suck message.” She chuckled.
“I think he would have had a heart attack or may have passed out after that message,” I winked at Annie.
“He is not weak hearted, but what were you thinking of when you sent him that message?” she asked curiously.
“I meant lick the salt, sip the tequila, and suck on the lime wedge,” I said laughing.
“That’s wicked. Are you going to respond to his message?” Annie asked looking at my phone.
“Yup, wondering what I should tell him.”
“Tell him he would find out if he were here,” Annie giggled. Reyan responded before I could text him back.
Reyan: I know what I want to lick..
I held my breath waiting for him to continue.
Reyan: I want to lick every inch of that velvety skin of yours
What did I do? Why did I start this?
Reyan: You are too
“I thought you guys went on a date already,” Neel winked.
Crap. He knows everything.
