"I'm glad to see we're going to handle this like adults," he teases, pulling the shirt he gave me over his torso instead.
"You're right… you're right," I mutter. Breathe, just breathe. "If I'm not calm, she'll know something's up."
"Would that be the worst thing in the world? We can't exactly hide from my sister, your best friend, forever."
"Of course not, it's just, we don’t even know what we are yet. And as soon as we tell Bridge, she'll either want us to break up or get married, no in-betweens. We're not ready for that yet."
He clicks his tongue, thinking, and then gives in. "You're right," he says with a sigh. And then the knock sounds again, harder this time. He grabs me by the shoulders, staring at me, forcing me to calm down. "You, go put on some of your own clothes. I'll go clean the living room. And then I'll open the door. You stay in your room until you hear us talking and pretend to just be waking up. Deal?"
He holds out his hand and I shake it, already feeling better now that we have a plan. "Deal."
And then we split. I race to my room, trying to slow down the heart palpitations while I pull on sweatpants and a baggy T-shirt—nothing sexy or romantic in the slightest. And then I wait by my door, listening as the knock comes again. Ollie's feet shuffle over the wood floor, racing back and forth, until finally, I hear the door open.
I wait for Bridget's voice.
Only it never comes.
"Who the hell are you?" Ollie snaps.
My heart stops.
I rip open my bedroom door and jump into the living room, racing for the door. Only halfway there, I see who's waiting on the other side of the threshold. I halt dead in my tracks. Because I know who the hell it is. And really, it's the last person I ever expected to see.
"Hey, Skye," he says, shrugging with an awkward smile.
My mouth falls open, releasing one shocked word on its way down. "John?"

So, I'm no longer a virgin sex columnist—thank you, Ollie—but if I thought that was going to make my life easier, boy was I wrong! John is back in town determined to win my forgiveness. Blythe is more ready than ever to take me down. Bridget is totally onto the new twinkle in my eye. And, well, Ollie is just as distractingly delicious as usual.
So, naturally, I have a few more confessions to make.
Confession #1: I came up with what I thought would be the perfect plan to keep my relationship with Ollie a secret—pretend to get back together with John!
