Then I walk across the hall to s down, then sit behindIn the corner of my eye, I keep track of India's office and see her stand up and talk to Blaine He stands close to her, his ar with a frown on her face and I wonder if she’s mad that I've turned up unexpectedly

Was she planning on getting soht with Blaine in the office? There's no one else here, so they could have been fucking like bunnies She didn’t expect me to show up – that's for sure

So like jealousy roils in my stomach It's the first tiht at the convention when Marina invited a date to our team function

I'm jealous

I hate the idea that Indiaback with Blaine

I want her to myself All of her for me and me alone

I don't want to even think about her with someone else

Finally, Blaine leaves and India comes into my office I remain seated behind my desk and let her lead the way

"So, why are you back?" she asks and sits at the chair across from me

"Disappointed?" I can’t help but say, my tone a bit too acid

"Why would you say that?" She frowns, crossing her arms

"Well, you and Blaine were…"

"We hat?"

"Alone in the office On a Sunday With me out of town…"

She stands and I wonder if I've gone too far
