Connor POV
“Really? She didn’t come to school for a week because she was such a mess after Colton left her. That doesn’t scream to me that she doesn’t need anyone.”
“That’s different. Think about how long they were friends and how they were literally together 24/7. She had to have felt like she had half of her ripped away. But she’s made a helluva come back.”
“How sweet. Is that why you always used to help her in math? Because you wanted in her pants?”
“It didn’t make me not want to help her,” he says, then joins the guys in their yells and laughter. “And, yet, you still won’t ever have a shot in hell. Especially if Connor is who you have to compete with.”
