Chapter 35

• Alexis stared up at the ceiling wondering what she was doing. This was crazy, she had gone insane. What had she been thinking when she'd kissed Ray back last night? This was Raymond Lachlan. He was the quintessential annoying, bad boy, trust fund babies who did nothing but go from club to club partying and picking up women every night. All he needed were tattoos to complete his look. But he'd also said he was in love with you. No, he hadn't said that. His words were 'You can't be friends with someone you're in love with'. He never said that someone was her. So why had she kissed him?
• "Oh Alexis, what did you do?" she groaned burying her face in her pillow. As if it wasn't enough that she'd dry humped him in the bar, she'd kissed him again when he had dropped her off. Marjorie had taken a cab with Henry claiming he needed someone to take care of him since he was so drunk which was bullshit seeing as she was the one who'd gotten him drunk. Alexis only hoped her friend knew what she was doing. So after calling a cab, Marj and Henry had sped away leaving her and Ray alone. He'd opened the passenger door for her then joked all the way home about how if she had any problems all she had to do was call him since he had a knack for solving them.
• She had to admit that the idea Ray had given her was brilliant. Sticking it to Jerkface would feel good. She couldn't wait to see his face when he realized who she was and what she was going to do. Ray had even given her ideas on what to look for during her research, the client list being number one. Apparently, he wasn't as dumb as she thought he was. The ride home had been fun. When they arrived in front of her house, he'd told her goodnight without getting out of the car and her disappointment that he wasn't going to kiss her goodnight had been written all over her face. Their easy newfound camaraderie had come to an end. This was where they would go back to being enemies or whatever it was they were.
