My girlfriend sat down and scooted over in the booth When Ava’s butt landed on the seat, I knew the night was officially ruined So s with Ca for the past feeeks: a

It was getting old I wanted to have a relationship with Ca around that we had done in the beginning I enjoyed who she was, her beauty and her spirit and her nonchalance for life It helped with irlfriend turn her attention co, I wondered if she really wanted so like that with me

Maybe I needed to cut my losses while I was still ahead

“So, hoork going?” Camilla asked

“Are you sure this is okay?” Ava asked

“Oh, it’s fine Logan’s fine,” Camilla said

But Ava was looking at me

She knew I didn’t kno she knew, but she did And even though I wanted time with Camilla all to myself, at least Ava’s presence and conversation would add soht At least I could have a conversation with a person instead of talking to myself while Camilla had her face in her phone the entire time

“Of course it is You’re alelcome,” I said

“Okay then Well, work’s going well It’s been an entire week of boring h them,” Ava said

“Tell me about it I sat in three of them today alone,” I said
