/"We’re almost there. I don’t have a jacket to offer./"

/"I’m okay, how’s what’s her name again? Are you still dating her?/"

He stiffens then instantly relaxes. /"Nah. It didn’t work./" He glances at me and smiles. He doesn’t mention her name.

/"Really? I thought you like her because she’s different. Why? What happened? What’s her name, Drew?/" I demand.

/"Yeah. I like her, but she didn’t like me the way I did. She doesn’t want a relationship. Just a one-night stand thing. Her name is Lucy. Lucinda./"

I freeze and swallow hard. This can’t be, right?

I clear my throat. /"I’m sorry, Drew. You’ll find someone who will like you back. You’re a good man. You deserve better./" I squeeze his arm, and he just gives me a nod.

We park in front of the hotel. I hold his arm as we walk to the elevator. He presses 11, and the elevator soars.
