Stuck On You novel Chapter 14

“What do you want to do back at home? Do you want to work on your technique?” he asked. I didn’t say anything for a long time. “Jordyn,” he said, trying to get my attention.

“I’m going over to Lewis’ place tonight,” I lied. He was silent until we reached the apartment. He turned the truck off and I felt his eyes on me. I hesitated before I looked back at him.

“What’s wrong,” he said, slightly irritated. I shrugged.

“Nothing; I just… I need to talk to him,” I said. It wasn’t a complete lie; there were things that I want to talk to Lewis about. I saw Hayden’s cheeks turn red.

“You didn’t tell me that,” he pointed out. I shrugged.

“I don’t have to tell you everything,” I countered before I got out of the truck and walked inside. Hayden didn’t come in after me. I sighed and pulled out my phone. I texted Lewis asking him if he had any time to talk tonight. He replied quickly. I knew that he lived in these apartments too; only a rise over actually. When it was clear that Hayden wasn’t coming back, I dressed and walked over to Lewis’ apartment. He opened the door right away.

“Hey,” he said with a smile. We sat on his couch and he turned on his TV. We watched in a peaceful silence for a moment before he turned to me. He turned the volume down. “You know, you never told me why you were mad at me when I left,” he started. I sighed before I looked at him.
