If he hasn't told you yet, I'm sure he will, because I can see it whenever he looks at you…" "Listen, the truth is, I know I can't compete with you. Too bad we weren't really identical and couldn’t pass for each other because otherwise, I totally would have. I should have made Becca come over here and have this conversation. I nod, still watching her, and unsure of what to say next. What woman wouldn’t fall for him? But over the years, I've accepted that he doesn’t view me that way, Sophie. She doesn’t need to know that my heart is beating like a drum. "And while he assured me that he doesn’t have any interest in you, I needed to hear you say the same thing." I pause, watching her eyes and focus on breathing calmly. "Oh." She looks down at the stone patio between her pedicured feet. "Colton told me about your past with him." Actually it's not." I clear my throat, wishing I'd downed a third daiquiri before attempting this awkward conversation.
