Holy shit.

She isn’t lying.

Judging by the ridiculous and most uncomfortable silence that follows Kendal’s statement, I know for sure that there’s no way she’s making this up.

I dare to glance at Chad, and then over my shoulder at Spencer, and by the way their brows are creased, and their jaws are tense and clenched, I know for a fact that she’s telling the truth.

Her intentions are not the best—that much is obvious—but it doesn’t matter now. Does it?

I don’t want to show her how much this affects me, giving her the satisfaction she is clearly seeking. Kendal might be beautiful, but she’s a snake. I can tell just by how dirty she’s playing to have Spencer cornered in front of me. Of course, she knew he hadn't told me. How, I have no idea. But no one can convince me otherwise. Whatever th

    “Whatever, Chad. I don’t want to talk about it anymore,” I tell him. I wanted to come here to get some fresh air and maybe get my head in the right place, but for some stupid and immature reason, I can’t. I can’t stay here anymore. I can’t face Spencer. And I can’t pretend I’m okay, facing everyone and smiling at the guests when all I want is to be alone.But I also can’t go now. It would make people talk. Not that I care, but again, this is an important moment for Spencer. If this was me when we were dating back in high school, I just know I’d have been home by now, too hot headed to continue to be here. I wouldn’t have cared about him. I would have just been selfish and thought about myself. But I’m different now, or at least I want to believe I am.Sure, I won’t pretend this didn’t happen tomorrow, but trying to solve things when I’m too angry right now isn’t helpful eith

    “Sorry. I intended to visit you, but I didn’t want to disturb you. I know you were super busy,” I say as an excuse. It’s a poor one, and I hate that I wasn’t more present for him during this period, but I also didn’t know how to help. “Sorry I wasn’t there for you more often.”He frowns at me, pulling me even closer to him. So close that I can feel his heart beating against my own. “You have nothing to apologize for. You’ve been my biggest supporter, and I could never have done this without you. And you’d never disturb me. Are you kidding me?”I chuckle, shoving him slightly on the shoulder. “You know what I mean. And of course you’d be able to do this without me. You decided to come here and open your record label before we were even back together.”Spencer grins at me and kisses me softly on the lips before pulling away to stare into my eyes, his blue pools piercing

  • Homecoming Love   Chapter 37

    I wake up to find three new text messages from Spencer on my phone. After sleeping it off, I now feel completely guilty for ghosting him last night, even though I was too tired and slightly drunk from all the wine I had. It was very childish to feel the way I felt when I saw that woman, and even though people always tell us to trust our gut, I just don’t think I had reason to act the way I did.Poppy was right; it was nothing, and I overreacted.Before even stretching, I open the messages, hoping Spencer isn’t mad at me or anything like that. Today is a huge day for him. I should be the first one to support him.‘Are you sleeping?’‘Guess you are. Just got home now. Things at the office look okay. I really think tomorrow will be great. Fingers crossed.’‘I could never have done this without you. I love you.’This last m

    I trust Spencer. He’d never do anything to hurt me.“Girl, listen to me. Don’t overthink this, okay? Let’s just do something together to distract you, and then later, you can ask Spencer if you want. Or even wait to see if he tells you something himself,” my friend suggests.It’s the wisest thing to do. But I just know I won’t be able to get this out of my head, even though I saw nothing incriminating. Spencer can meet whoever he wants, whether it’s a man or a woman. I’m not that controlling. I don’t ever want to be that person.“Okay, fine. You’re probably right. I’m just intimidated by her presence and beauty, that’s all. Should I still go there and offer my help, though?”“What if this is an important meeting? You don’t want to ruin things for him, do you?” Poppy retorts, making me be reasonable. This is one of the many reasons I love having her

  • Homecoming Love   Chapter 35

    In the end, being questioned by Aubrie wasn’t as bad as Spencer made me believe it would be. I had actually forgotten how witty and funny she is since we barely see each other in a lighter environment. She’s usually working and so busy when I come by the bookstore that it’s just not the same.Aubrie was very nice when she cornered me leaving the bathroom and cautiously asked about my relationship with Spencer and how serious we were. If anything, she seemed more concerned about her brother than anything else, and I didn’t mind her questions. I knew she was just looking after him. I assure her I’m in this for all the right reasons, and I truly care about her brother.Once the week starts, Spencer and I are back to our busy routines at work. However, I manage to find a moment to visit his office since I haven’t had the chance to do it yet, and I wanted to do it before he officially opened it. The launch party is happening tomorrow nigh
