“When do you know?” He turned to me. “When do you know when it’s time to say goodbye to your dreams…or your fears…or your past? And what happens when you don’t know what you’re supposed to be doing?”
He dropped his hand back to my thigh, but the warmth was gone.
Each question chilled me further until ice ran in my veins. He was pushing without intending to, possibly without realizing. Every question he asked was one I’d asked myself a hundred times since I stepped off that plane in Jamaica.
“We’re here,” he said, pulling up to a new complex just outside Latham Hills. I recognized the building immediately. Blue had rented an apartment here, and then Trina was going to move in before she decided she’d rather live with Declan.
“This? This is where you’ve been staying?” I asked, unable to keep the laughter out of my voice. I’d been inside Blue’s old apartment. Decorated in a shabby-chic palette, with pastel colors and all things unique and feminine, it was the last place I could imagine David living. “How did I not know this?”
“Don’t know why they didn’t tell you,” he said, reaching out and running his thumb along my smiling lips. The hint of pleasure danced along my skin, sending shocks to the tops of my thighs. “Maybe Blue didn’t think it was that big of a deal. But I’ve made a few changes. I was subleasing it until her lease ran out in August and then I took it over. Finally got rid of my place in Chicago and moved a few things in. The rest went into storage.”
He slid out of his Escalade, and I opened my door, meeting him outside mine as I shut it. “Well then, by all means.” I grinned up at him. “Show me what you’ve done.”
