Chapter 23

BOOK THREE: BANGKOK

Tristan. Is. Standing. In. Front. Of. Me.

My brother's best friend, my soon-to-be new boss, the guy who I shared that ridiculously hot kiss with, is standing in front of me.

The guy I hadn't seen for years prior to that kiss.

The guy who then decided afterwards that the kiss was a mistake and that it can never happen again.

The guy who I, despite my best judgments, can't stop thinking about.How can one person be all these different things at once?

I have to cast that aside.

Nothing can ever happen between us.

He's right, nothing can happen between us. Or nothing will, not that there's a difference. All that history and now: this new association we have formed. I have to take him out of the potential boyfriend box and back into the old one I shelved him in guys I would never 'go for'. I'm just going to ignore all the thoughts I had about him.
