For a second, her eyes trailed down to my stomach, but her gaze snapped back up just as fast.
“She won’t ask,” Jade said.
“I know. I just know what everyone’s thinking.”
“And what’s that?”
“That I fucked up.”
“You didn’t,” she said. “This kind of thing happens, even to people who don’t usually have one-night stands.”
“I just feel I should have done better. After Brooke, I wanted to be normal.”
“You don’t owe anyone anything. Especially not Brooke.” She left me to think about her words as she put in her order. “I’ll also get a regular coffee for Grace.”
I blinked out of my thoughts. “You don’t have to get mine.”
“I’m gonna do it anyway.” She waved her hand.
“Got it,” Theo replied. “But do you want the hazelnut cappuccino instead?”
“Definitely the hazelnut.”
Jade turned to me. “You changed your order?”
“Theo made a guess and was right.” I shrugged.
“Wait, you guess orders?” Jade asked. “What’s your call on me?”
“Lavender latte.”
“You have lavender?” she said with a gasp. “I’ll be taking that then.”
Theo nodded and changed both of our orders.
“How did I not know he worked magic?” Jade muttered as we walked to the pickup counter.
“He only told me because he guessed Dean’s order.”
“It’s a waste of a man, isn’t it?” Jade asked. “To be that hot and not date?”
“The same could be said for Dean,” Kelsey said as she put our drinks down. “But it’s true. Neither of them are my type, but I can appreciate the view. Someone recorded the bull riding last night.”
Both Jade and I gasped. “Who?” I asked.
“No idea, but boy, is it beautiful. I should have been there, but I’m adjusting to the new early morning schedule and struggling. Should I send it to you, Grace?”
“Oh n?—”
“She’d love it,” Jade said. “You absolutely should.”
I glared, but didn’t disagree. It was the best reminder I had of the two times we’d slept together.
“I’ll send it, don’t you worry.” Kelsey winked.
“And on that note, I’m gonna get to work.” I took my coffee and sipped on it. “I’ll talk to you both later.”
“Enjoy your peace and quiet!” Jade said with a wave.
