Remember Me

Natalie had always been a fairly happy girl with a life that she was content with. At least until six months ago when her lifelong best friend, with who she had shared everything with up until that point, suddenly decided that they needed to end their friendship with no warning. The life that she had known and loved shattered around her, taking her with it. Now, she's closed herself off from everyone around her and made a vow to herself to never let anyone in again in an effort to never have to go through that pain again. For six months, her plan had gone smoothly and seemed fail-proof. That is until Riley, who happens to be way too handsome and charming for his own good, abruptly finds his way into her life and flips her world upside down. No matter how much she pushes him away and tries to keep her vow, she keeps finding herself in situations that could ruin everything she's worked so hard for. The more she's around him and is struck by the light he brings into the world, the harder it becomes to keep her vow, and herself, safe. Her life starts to spin out of her control as she tries to figure out what Riley really wants, who he really is, and why her gut keeps telling her that there is more to him than she could ever imagine. As if her plate wasn't already full enough, she's also troubled with trying to figure out why Colton has been acting the way he has and why he really left her. Natalie's life has become anything but simple. But it can only go up from here, right? Wrong. The catastrophic rollercoaster that has become her life has only just begun. Will Natalie ever be able to let down the walls guarding her heart or will she miss out on any

Chapter 79

“Single her out and talk to her.”

“How do you know if she's interested or if she wants you to move on?” Riley asks, making me widen my eyes and look at him. I bite my lip and look down at the sand, pretending I’m not the least bit interested in his answer and attempting to make myself believe that.

He just shrugs and grins at me before focusing his attention back on Ashford.

“Study her,” Ashford answers. “I figure out what she’s thinking and feeling. She usually won’t come right out and tell me, which is why I have to pay attention. Does she turn her body toward me? Does she hold eye contact with me, then look away? Does she bite her lip and play with her hair, the way Holloway is doing right now?”

I snap my head up as the group chuckles with the exception of Riley. I release my lip from my bite and fold my hands in my lap.

“She’s game,” Ashford continues, bumping my leg again.

For the first time in my life, I feel myself blush. I blame the whiskey as I drink some more.
