and I fought back the urge to go to her. I had to hear the rest of the story.
“He said something about being a gentle giant and I told him I thought it was time for him to go. As I reached for the door he grabbed my arm.” She looked back up at me and her eyes filled. “He’d also said something about how you and he share women and how he didn’t mind your sloppy seconds.” Fuck! That’s exactly what he said to me this morning. Gia’s telling me the truth!
“He grabbed my ass and when he noticed I wasn’t wearing any panties, he got a wild look in his eyes. It really scared me for a moment. I didn’t want him to know I was scared and I told him if he ever touched me again, he’d be sorry.” That fucker is so fired! I went to Gia and tried to hold her but she wouldn’t let me. She was upset.
“He told me girls who acted and dressed like me were usually up for a good time and that I shouldn’t have been giving him signals if I didn’t want to play. I actually felt guilty and told him I was sorry. I couldn’t remember giving him any signals . I was going to tell you all about it when you came back to get me for our picnic. I decided against it after I read an article that quoted you saying how good he was at his job and how you wouldn’t have gotten the great line-up this year without him. I didn’t know that you and I would go beyond the weekend, so it seemed ridiculous to tell you your friend had made a pass at me. I’m sorry I didn’t tell you.” She took a deep breath. Good girl, Hotness. I knew you weren’t like that.
“Gia, thank you for telling me the truth. I’m sorry for asking, but like I said, Vince’s job was on the line. I had to know what really happened. I told him if I found out he was lying, he’d be fired.”
“What did he say happened?” Gia asked me.
I looked at her and hesitated. I knew it would piss her off royally. She had a right to know though, so I told her. “He said you lifted your skirt and showed him you didn’t have any panties on. He said you were flirting with him but then Jo came out of her room so he left.”
“Did you believe that? Even after everything we’ve talked about? Ethan?” She was really hurt and I felt horrible.
“No, I didn’t believe it. But I couldn’t fire Vince just because I didn’t believe him. I had to have proof that he was lying and you were the only one who could give that to me.” She had to understand that.
“Why does it feel like we’ve had to deal with way more shit than we should have after only knowing each other for a week? What are we doing? Who are we kidding?” Shit! No, don’t go there! “We don’t trust each other. We don’t even know each other!” She said, her eyes wide.
“Gia, that’s not true! Please don’t think that. I do trust you and I do know you. We’re new, so of course we’re going to run into some issues. Every relationship runs into issues, especially in the beginning. We’re going to work it all out early so we can live happily ever after,” I told her.
She laughed . “Happily ever after? Seriously, Ethan?” She relaxed a little. “Well, now we’re going to spend a month apart, so I guess it’ll be a telling start to our ‘ever after.’ It’s definitely worth a try. You’re definitely worth a try. I’m just scared, I guess.”
“You have nothing to be scared about ,” I said, relieved by what she’d just revealed. “I’ve got you.”
She smiled . “I know you do.” She finally let me hold her. She put her head on my chest like she’d done several times before. I think she listened to my heartbeat. I liked that and it seemed to relax her.
“I’m scared about California too, Ethan,” she said. “I don’t know what’s gonna happen there.”
“They’ re going to help you.” I squeezed her. “Don’t be scared.” I wished I could go with her. I wished I never had to be separated from her again.
“ Are you really going to fire Vince?” she asked,
