time.
    Maybe I will adjust back to normal.
    But I’ve never kissed anyone and felt after effects like the ones that I feel as I am sitting here on the couch.
    “Good afternoon,” Sophie chirps in my ear as she slides down beside me. “You made it home late.”
    “Ryker…took me out.” I think I made sense, I’m not that sure. But it will suffice.
    Sophie nods, filing away at her nails. She looks at me with a knowing look on her face. “Did you break your sexual pact again?”
    Boy did I ever break it. In more ways than I ever did before. I sigh, raking a hand through my mess of hair trying to pull it together. I still feel his lips against mine. His lips are haunting me.
    I have to say something. Someone needs to know about this—ordeal.
    “I didn’t go home with Ryker.”
    Sophie tilts her head a little staring at me. She doesn’t say anything, just waits for more of an explanation.
    “I went home with …
    Now she is raising her eyebrows, waiting for the other shoe to drop but part of me is afraid to admit it. “Nash.” It feels good to say his name. But not as good as it felt to kiss him.
    She slaps me in the arm. “Holy shit, Savy. How in the world did this happen?”
    I raise my shoulders, forcing a shrug. “Ryker was hanging out with all his groupies and I was swept away in the crowd.” I explain to her how I literally fell into Nash’s lap and stopped him from killing the drunk guy in the bar.
    I even mention how Nash had stood up for me when said drunk guy called me a bitch. And just when I am about to get to the best part of the entire thing my phone rings and Sophie fishes it from between the cushions of the couch. She looks at it and back up to me. “Jackson.”
    I shake my head. “I can’t talk to him right now.”
    “You’re right. Because you need to finish this conversation about you and Nash.”
    “He took me for a ride on his bike. And when we came back…” Huge pangs of lust flood my bloodstream. Nash’s vision immediately surfaces in my memory. “He kissed me.”
    Sophie covers her mouth in shock, her blue eyes huge. “He kissed you. I’d never expected him to do such a thing.”
    “Neither did I.”
    “So, did you let him?”
    I laugh, because the idea of denying Nash after what I know would just be stupid. “Of course I did.”
    “I didn’t even know you fancied him,” she smirks. “You are such a slut.”
    I roll my eyes. “I didn’t know I did either.” I look down at my phone. “Can I tell you something?”
    “Of course you can.” She waits.
    “I never felt anything like that before.” I scratch my head trying to put a finger on what it was that I felt.
    “A connection.” She answers for me. “You felt a connection. There was a spark.”
    There was a full on fire.
    “What does that even mean?” I can’t afford to juggle three men in my life right now, especially one that I work with that wants to marry me.
    But something is going on with the universe and men are literally just falling from the heavens for me to feast on.
    Ryker, Jackson and now Nash. It gives me a headache to think about.
    “It could mean you were sexually in tune with one another. It could mean he’s the one for you. It could simply mean you both were trashed and your beer goggles got in the way of your logical thought process,” she rattles off.
    I take a quick shower to freshen myself up and clear my dirty thoughts and slip off onto the patio to call Jackson back because I know he is probably worried about me. We talk everyday.
    “Just wanted to check in with you,” I tell him taking a seat on Sophie’s posh patio furniture. “I just woke up.”
    “What a bum.” He teases me for a few before growing serious. “What happened to you last night? I thought you were going to come by.”
    Suddenly I don’t feel that open and honest and that’s not like me. I sigh. There are two ways I can go with this conversation and I don’t want to go either route. “Jackson…” He
