her Evangeline she's not normally like this! Well, we have to be going! We have plans, don't we darling.”
    “Do we?!” My mind span and my whole body came out in goose bumps as he'd called me darling. It was a big enough hint for her to know to back off, but she just rolled her eyes.
    “Oh, Cameron! Please tell me you haven't fell for someone like her! You could do so much better sweetie. She has gold digger written all over like a stick of cheap rock!”
    My jaw popped open in shock. I was no gold digger! I had my own money! I didn't need his. “You clearly have no idea who I am, you stuck up...” I took a breath in as I felt my anger rise in my chest. “Cameron I need to leave now before I forget my manners.” I said it through a clenched jaw.
    He sighed. “Evan can you do me a favor and just wait down near the doors for me! I won't be five minutes I promise! I am so sorry about this!” He looked at me with wide, pleading eyes.
    “By all means! It's not your fault your friend is a rude bitch!” I freed myself from him and flipped my hair over one shoulder as I gave her a dirty look, then I walked the few feet to where he'd said and stood and stared at the pair of them.
    He looked beyond angry. He turned away from me and grabbed Erin by the elbow and led her a little way from me far enough that I couldn't hear what was being said but I could still see. I was good at lip reading!
    I studied them. She looked shocked that he'd forced her away, I couldn't see his face only hers. She shrugged a few times and seemed to be saying sorry.
    I had quite clearly been a threat to her. It didn't excuse how rude she'd been though. It made me wonder just how things had been worked out with other women. Maybe she had a crush on him. He was late twenties, so the age gap for her wasn't that big. I understood what she saw him in. He was powerful, rich, and somewhat overbearing, but it was something in his eyes and how he touched me that made me stay. I could only imagine what she might have experienced to have it all ripped away by a younger women. I'd hate me too, but I'd never act like she did. I didn't like the idea of her and him together like that though. It made me feel a little sick at the idea of him having sex with her. She was so stiff and prim I'd be surprised if she was ever any different in other situations. I sniggered to myself.
    She glanced over at me giving me another dirty look so I flipped her the bird with my right hand and mouthed the words “fuck you bitch” then shoved my hands back into my pockets and stared intently across the road so if he looked around I'd look busy.
    I didn't risk looking back until I heard him walk back over. His arm slipped around my back. “Please forgive me for that! That was more aimed at me than you! I've been avoiding her!” He sighed.
    I glanced up at him. “Is she an ex?!” I liked how his hand felt on me but I was straight to the point I wanted to know, more than that I had to know.
    He led me away and I turned my head for a second to see if she was still there. I saw her wipe her eyes with her hands. Was she crying?! She was looking at him like she'd just been broken up with. I turned my head back around and concentrated on not tripping over. My head was so full of questions and concerns that I'd probably trip over my own feet.
    He sighed. “She was never my girlfriend! She liked me, we had an agreement that it was just sex no strings, but she developed feelings for me and I cut her loose!”
    Wow, don't sugar coat it. I coughed unsure what to say. I didn't know how any person could sleep with another and not develop feelings.
    “Oh. I see. So, uh are all your past relationships been on a casual basis?! And it's impossible to have sex with someone and not develop feelings!” Since he'd been so honest, I figured I'd get away with that.
    He sighed. “You make it sound seedy Evan, but yes, they were but before you ask or over think it! I don't what anything casual with
