Chapter 54
Aside from scooching over a tad when she sat down, all polite and proper, Sophia didn’t make any move to chat him up during the whole dinner.
After the meal, the guys were all jockeying to escort the girls home.
Sophia had that girl-next-door charm, soft-spoken and serene, the kind of gal guys used to fall over themselves to please back in the school days, and that night was no different.
Among the eager beaver lads vying to take her home, Brandon piped up, “I live over in West district too. I can give you a lift on my way.”
He clearly caught the surprise on her face, but Sophia was never one to put someone out. She thanked him and turned down the lift, saying she’d called a cab. But her refusal seemed feeble against the backdrop of her enthusiastic classmates, and in the end, she gave in and got into his car after a bit of friendly arm-twisting.
The ride was light on conversation.
Back in the day, they had all those unspoken understandings, even a sort of tacit closeness and reliance, but after a few years apart, there was a certain awkwardness. Yet, that awkwardness turned into a torrent of intense and fatal attraction the moment they bumped into each other in the dark of her room.
He kissed her, and then things spiraled out of control.
He wasn’t the type to do things on a whim, and neither was Sophia, but that night was the start of a chaos for both of them.
Desire overrode all sense of reason.
Memories of that night flooded back, and Brandon couldn’t help but steal a glance at Sophia.
She was still watching the young couple goofing around, a soft smile on her calm and gentle face, just enjoying the show.
