"WHY DID you leave when I asked you to wait for me," I ask Iris, hugging her tightly as if I just had a near-death experience.
To be fair, a mini-breakup does feel like one.
"What about Bella? I thought you two were together."
I roll my eyes in exasperation. Bella that annoying woman. I had a tough time dealing with her. When we left the tent a while ago, she immediately took over once we were out of sight, heading us straight towards the back office used by the maintenance team—where we used to you know what.
It was sheer intuition that assisted me in realizing what she thought this was, and I stopped us in an instant, gripping her hand as we turned the other way. Once we were away from earshot, she tugged her hand away from mine, glaring daggers at me as she glanced behind us.
"What the fuck was that, Lucas? The office is that way."
"I think I told you last time that I want to stop."
