I looked really good.
It was worth putting in a lot of effort because I couldn't remember the last time I had been on a date and I was a young guy, which was pathetic.
I needed to be out and about but unfortunately I wasn't the type. When I fall in love, I fall hard and I don't go looking for other ladies outside.
“Wow!” Was all Peter said when he saw me. He looked like he was starstruck. I felt proud of myself.
“I never thought you were handsome until today.” He said with a frown and I smacked his head. “Ow! What was that for?”

I had already messed things up real bad and I knew that nothing I could say could fix it, but it was worth trying. Wasn't it?I was just across the street, when I saw Dante's car arrive and Keisha and him got down. My steps halted in their stride. He leaned on his car, looking cool and dapper and Keisha stepped into the vee of his legs, seductively batting her lashes. I gasped.I knew what I would expect but I still stood there and watched, like a creeper. They didn't even wait to get into the dorm.Damn!

Dante's POVI groaned in frustration as our car sputtered to a stop on the side of the road. "Shit!”Olivia looked at me with concern. "What's wrong?"“I have no idea. Let me go take a look.”I stepped down and went to open the hood."I think the engine's dead," I replied, getting out of the car to take a look.“And the weather's going to be bad today.” Olivia said. Her words, doing nothing to reassure me.We were in the middle of nowhere, with no cell phone signal to call for help. I left the hood open and took anoth

OLIVIA POVI tossed and turned on the bed, unable to sleep. The mattress was old and creaky, and I could feel the springs digging into my back. I glanced over at Dante, who was not moving as much as I did in his sleeping bag. He was craning his neck uncomfortably though, and I could tell he was doing his best to get comfortable.I felt that he had to have an uncomfortable night's rest because he couldn't join me on the bed. It wasn't his fault after all that we couldn't get a second room. I lay there unable to sleep.I got out of bed and walked over to where Dante was sleeping. "Dante," I whispered, shaking his shoulder. "Come lie on the other side of the bed. You'll be more comfortable."He opened his eyes, looking

Dante's POVI had left Olivia to sleep, because she hadn't gotten much sleep last night. It was the least I could do. I smiled as I thought about last night and this morning.I was waiting outside the motel for the towing company to bring back the car, fixed and ready for the road when my phone rang. Keisha's ID popped up on the screen and I frowned as the first thought in my mind was to ignore her call. I had tried to make it clear to her that I wasn't looking for anything serious, so I hope she didn't think we were. It also felt wrong to be speaking to her, so soon after my night with Olivia. It had been the best night of my life, maybe because I was having that moment with someone I actually loved.I finally picked the call at the fourth ring, “Kei
