Chapter 26

While he showered, I sat on the bed and thought about the situation I had put myself in. I had to be careful not to hurt him. Was he falling in love with me and, if so, was it just because I was the only person in the world who had offered to help him? And would he be hurt if he felt I was rejecting him? And if something happened, would he be hurt if he felt I was rejecting him later? I couldn’t let it happen. It would make our situation infinitely more complicated, with his expectations of success in coming to France as my love interest making him fall even harder when that didn’t happen.

The shower stopped. There was no more time to decide how to get control of the situation. I took a deep breath, pushed all the erotic thoughts out of my head, and waited for him to come out.
