Chapter 4

“Well,” I conceded, attempting a little humor. The seriousness in the room was thick and oppressive. “I havebeen kissing and getting near naked with Aaron since the beginning of last season. I do believe you’ve directed some of that.”

Vincent cracked a smile before he sobered again. He just looked at me for a long moment. “You okay? With what happened?”

It was good of him to ask. “Yes,” I answered truthfully. I’d been coming to terms with who I was, and the part of me I’d kept hidden, for months now. And even though I never intended it to happen like this, I was okay with it.

“Good.” Then Vincent offered me one of those rare smiles that made my heart pound and literally made me catch my breath. He took in my reaction, and his grin grew even wider. “You want it to happen again, you know where to find me. Or more. We could definitely do more. Just let me know.”

With that, Vincent turned and walked out the door.
