Once the competition started, I had to find her weakness, expose it and make myself seem like a good guy in the process.
But that was how reality TV was played. And we’d both agreed to the game. For now, though, it was just us. So I pointed to the door and asked, “Want to get something to eat?”
Her gaze narrowed as she asked, “With you?”
Fair. I wouldn’t trust me either. But I stood in front of the door and said, “Why not? You just told the televised world that you’re single, and you didn’t join your parents at your hotel.”
“In a few hours we report to living right here, on this stage. My parents will bring my bags to me,” she answered quickly, like I’d insulted her. She then coughed and said, “I didn’t want to get in a car, drive all the way to the hotel, and then just have to turn around and come back in a few hours.”
My hunger for her was palpable as I said, “My driver will take us to the local pub and back.”
Her gaze went up. “You have a driver?”
Yes. Songwriting had been my one saving grace, and a decent source of income. I ignored how my muscles were tense from her nearness and said, “It’s faster than walking. And, for the record, I want to be here for the end too.”
She sucked in her bottom lip and let it out as she nodded, “I am hungry.”
I offered my arm like I was some fucking gentleman and said, “Then let’s go.”
“No touching,” she said, staring at my arm.
I lowered it, but winked as I walked beside her. “Only where you tell me to.”
As I opened the door, she asked, “And you swear you’ll listen?”
I placed my hand on my heart as my car came toward us. “I’ll be a good boy, if that’s what you want.”
“I doubt you know how,” she said, but she slid into the backseat of my car.
I followed her, wondering why I was so intoxicated with her. Women never had me this wound up. But I craved Carrigan tonight. Maybe it was her goodness. I hoped a quick bite and seeing more of her might unwind the desire she stirred in me.
