stand by while you tell me you’re
going to find some other guy to fuck. And then flirt and touch someone else in front of me.”
“Please, Miles.”
“I’m going to go
get my stuff. Enjoy the rest of your birthday.”
“Miles, please .”
I turn and see that
she’s dropped to her knees. Tears are streaming down her cheeks, and people are stopping
to stare. I could tell her to get up, but I need this. I need her to
want me enough to beg.
“I’m so, so sorry.
I was being stupid and shouldn’t have done that. I guess I wanted
to see how far I could push you, and I pushed you too far. I know
that now. I shouldn’t have flirted, and I definitely shouldn’t
have let anyone touch me or touched him back. I love you Miles. I
only want you. Please give me another chance.”
I walk over and pull
her to her feet. “You need to be sure you want me. I won’t go
through this again. What you just did hurt me. I laid myself bare for
you, and you just purposely hurt me.”
“I do want you. I’ll make it up to you, I promise. Whatever you want
tonight, however you want it.”
“Sex doesn’t solve
things. You need to stop thinking it does. And I don’t want or need
anything different than what we’ve been doing. You need to stop
thinking that, too.”
“You were going to go
have sex.”
“Because that’s
what I know. That’s how I cope. I’ve told you that. I’ve also
told you I want more than just a physical relationship with you.”
“Will you come back
to the restaurant with me?”
“What about Mr.
Preppy?”
“He’s a non-issue.”
“Does he know that?”
“I think me running
out of the restaurant after you was pretty clear.”
I close my eyes and
tilt my head back. How the fuck can I go back in there? They all saw
her. Not just her family, but that asshat and his friends. Now I’m
going to walk back in there and what? Act like nothing happened?
Yeah, I guess I am. For her, I am.
“Come on. Our food’s
probably getting cold.”
We walk in and the
conversation at our table stops. As well as, the table next to ours.
I suck up my pride and pull out her chair. Instead of sitting, Alex
spins and grabs me, kissing me hard. She lets me go and turns back
around.
“I begged. I know
you’re all wondering. I dropped to my knees outside and begged him
to give me another chance. I was a bitch, and I don’t deserve him.
But he loves me enough to come back in here with me.”
“You’re used to
girls on their knees, aren’t you?” a chick from the asshole’s
table says to me.
“Excuse me?”
“You’re Miles
Corrigan. Half the women in this country have been on their knees for
you.”
“You’re Miles
Corrigan? Well, fuck. I heard about you and that women’s lacrosse
team back east. You really had them all at once?” Mr. Preppy is
smiling at me now.
“Listen, I’m with
my girl, celebrating her birthday. Yes, I used to be that guy, but
I’m not anymore. I’d appreciate it if you let us enjoy the rest
of our dinner in peace.”
“Your girl? Cool. I
just almost took Miles Corrigan’s girl back to my room.”
“I was never going back to your room. I was just mad at Miles. I shouldn’t have
used you and I’m sorry.”
“Use me in any way
you want. Especially if you managed to get this guy to commit. You
must be one hot piece…”
I’m on him before he
can say another word. I have him out of his chair as I get up in his
face. His friends start to stand up, but so do the Griffin brothers,
which causes them to return to their seats.
“The last asshole who
disrespected her isn’t looking so good. Go ahead and say something
else.”
“No, man, I’m
sorry.”
“Tell her .”
“I’m sorry. Really
I am.”
I release him and he
throws some money on the table. His whole table leaves, glaring at us
the entire time. I don’t give a fuck. Even if I wasn’t with Alex,
I’d still defend her. She means too much to me not to. The
restaurant manager comes over and tells us that
going to find some other guy to fuck. And then flirt and touch someone else in front of me.”
