Diving into the Deep End

Chapter 2

Leaning over to my co-worker Alex, I whispered in his ear “Have you seen that guy before?”

“Which one? Mr. Buff over there?”

I winced. Alex could be really crude sometimes.
“Yeah, that guy.”
Craning his neck, Alex got a better look and shook his head. “He’s cute, you should go for him.”

“You think so?” I wasn’t too sure. My last relationship, with someone named Matt, hadn’t ended well. Four months into the relationship, I’d found out he was cheating on me with his ex-boyfriend Evan. Needless to say, I had broken it off right away, but had regretted it ever since.

“Rian?” Alex’s voice snapped me out of my reverie.
“Yeah, sorry, what’s up?”
“Were you daydreaming about tattoo boy?” he asked, with a teasing grin on his face.
“No, I was actually thinking about Matt…”

“Rian, you need to get over him. He was a jerk to you. Not only that, he was being jerked off by his ex while he was dating you. He’s not worth taking up any space in your thoughts.”

He was right. Maybe I’d give Tattoo Boy a shot.
