Chapter 75 : Dreams of Michael

At the last second, I pulled away.

“Thanks again for a nice night, Jerrick,” I said before heading up the stairs alone.

My heart wrenched with guilt.

I pulled the front door shut behind me as quietly as I possibly could. The apartment was dark, and all the lights were off. I was slightly relieved that Lin wasn’t waiting up for me. I didn’t turn on any of the lights, not wanting to wake Lin and have to explain that I’d just had an amazing date with Jerrick but left him as soon as he tried to kiss me.

It really had been an amazing date; we had a great connection, and for the most part, the conversation was easy. Jerrick was the perfect gentleman and extremely attractive. He laughed at all the right things. If I’d been in a different place, I would have been over the moon that an attractive man in law school was taking notice of me.
