Goodrun on the beach? I asked I knew she loved running on the beach I figured if I suggested her favorite things, she’d want me around more

Ten minutes later, she finally responded Sure I’ll be ready in fifteen

Score Fifteen ain I needed a plan For starters, I needed to ease her into talking about her recent past Like when she was in Paris last July with a ston I doubted she had a clue about thea childtrafficker, she’d have been horrified

Before I dug that deep, I needed to spend a few days with her, soaking up her time as much as possible Until we casually moved into the conversation about our past relationships o about it, but I didn’t want any et Nan cleared of any connection to Livingston and thenready to run on the beach This was one looking for a woht I deserved a fucking award for that I went hoht, then drank so to end my career before it even started Captain had done it for years and had been daood at it I was just as badass as he was I could do this shit I would do it I had notes! Lots of fucking notes!

Nan

The drea me I couldn’t concentrate I couldn’t eat I couldn’t focus on anything Major was saying I had even checkedto see if they were still on It had felt so real The disappointment when I’d touched them made my heart sink Of course, I’d still been in that half-asleep, half-awake phase when the idea of a ht while I slept and giving me the best oral sex I’d ever had sounded like a solid idea Not scary at all

Yeah

It was a fantasy The kind thatboth suck Because right now, if Major chatted about oneto toss the chicken salad sandwich I was eating right at hi to the club for lunch, because I knew three of the waitresses he had fucked here I requested to be seated in one of their areas just to watch hi an extended "restroo known for all over town

He wasn’t squir eye contact with our waitress And she was clearly annoyed Probably hurt Well, I didn’t knohat to do with that Because if I hadn’t gone to Vegas and hadn’t experienced Gannon, I’d be sht now like I had won But hat? Major? I didn’t want him

Even with all that sweet stuff he had done, one drea And that list was seriously long Maybe the pretty boy hat irls wanted, but until they had been with a oal in life was not to talk about hi

Major loved himself He talked about himself all the time It drove reed with hiood in blue Yes, his biceps looked bigger Blah blah blah Ugh
