Your best friend’s boyfriend—off-limits. Yet, Phoenix has always drawn you in with that lazy grin, completely unaware of the way you watch him. He’s the cool kid but he doesn’t care because he knows his own struggles.
He shouldn’t be thinking about you, but he does. More than he should. His fingers drum against his knee as his partner talks, but his gaze flicks to you. Too close. Too tempting. He says, voice low. You keep looking at me like that, and I might start thinking you want something.
