My Boyfriend's Plus-One Problem
Over the long weekend, I went on a trip with my boyfriend, Henry Dolan. The second I got in the car, I saw another girl in the back seat.
Henry smiled. "This is Jenny Edgar. She was a year behind us in college. She's headed the same way, so I figured we could use the company."
Jenny turned and smiled at me. "Don't worry. I won't get in your way. I just needed a ride."
I swallowed hard and said nothing.
At the hotel, I was about to unlock the room when Jenny rolled her suitcase in behind me.
Henry acted like it was no big deal. "It doesn't make sense for her to get her own room. The three of us can share and save money. She can sleep on the couch."
Jenny was already sitting on the edge of the bed, looking up at me. "I'll take the couch. I won't bother you two."
I stared at Henry's calm, casual face, and my stomach turned.
"Fine. You two stay here. I'll get another room."
