Last night was brutal.
I"d only agreed to go out with Brandon"s single co-worker Stacey in a moment of weakness. She"d recently moved here, and Brandon gave me some speech about the difficulties of being new in a small town. She was nice enough, but then we"d run into Poppy, dressed adorably in a baby costume, and I was certain Stacey knew in that instant that I wasn"t as single as I claimed to be. Because despite not actually being with Poppy, she owned me. Whether I wanted her to or not. She had cast a spell over me that refused to let go.
God, and her displeasure at seeing me with another woman? It was palpable.
I wanted to drop to my knees and pledge my allegiance to her, and I would have if I thought it would do any good.
But today, all I felt was sad. I felt bad for Pop
