Chapter 1 I ll be your date to the wedding.
2
Words I had never not even in my wildest dreams, and trust me, I had a vivid imagination conceived of hearing from that deep and rich tone reached my ears.
3
Looking down at my co -ee, I squinted my eyes, trying to search for any signs of noxious substances oding around.
4
That would at least explain what was happening. But nope.
5
Nothing.
6
Just what was left of my Americano.
7
I'll do it if you need someone that badly, the deep voice came again.
8
Eyes growing wide, I lifted my head.
9
I opened my mouth and then snapped it closed again.
10
Rosie, I trailed oh, the word leaving me in a whisper.
11
Is he really there?
12
Can you see him?
13
Or did someone spike my co -ee without me noticing?
14
Rosie my best friend and colleague in Intech, the New York City -based engineering consulting company, where we had met and worked slowly nodded her head.
15
I watched her dark curls bounce with the motion, an expression of disbelief marring her otherwise soft features.
16
She lowered her voice.
17
Nope.
18
He's right there.
19
Her head peeked around me very quickly.
20
Hi.
21
Good morning, she said brightly before her attention returned to my face.
22
Right behind you.
23
Lips parted, I stared at my friend for a long moment.
24
We were standing at the far end of the hallway of the 11th or of the Intech headquarters.
25
Both our OCES were relatively close together, so the moment I had entered the building located in the heart of Manhattan, in the vicinity of Central Park,
26
I had gone straight to her OCE.
27
My plan had been to grab Rosie
28
and plop down on the upholstered wooden armchairs that served as a waiting sitting area for visiting clients, which were usually unoccupied this early in the morning.
29
But we never made it.
30
I somehow dropped the bomb before we ever sat down.
31
That was how much my predicament needed Rosie's immediate attention.
32
And then, then he had materialized out of nowhere.
33
Should I repeat that a third time?
34
His question sent a new wave of disbelief rushing down my body, freezing the blood in my veins.
35
He wouldn't.
36
Not because he couldn't, but because what he was saying did not make any freaking sense.
37
Not in our world.
38
One where we all write, any, he sighed.
39
You can take me.
40
He paused, sending more of that ice -cold weariness through me.
41
To your sister's wedding.
42
My spine locked up.
43
My shoulders stee and.
44
I even felt the satin blouse I had tucked into my camel slack stretch with the sudden motion.
45
I can take him.
46
To my sister's wedding.
47
As my, date.
48
I blinked, his words echoing inside my head.
49
Then, something unhitched inside of me.
50
The absurdity of whatever this was whatever perverse joke this man
51
I knew not to trust was trying to pull oh made a snort bubble its way up my throat
52
and reach my lips, leaving me quickly and loudly.
53
As if it had been in a rush to get out.
54
A grunt came from behind me.
55
What's so funny?
56
His voice dropped, turning colder.
57
I'm completely serious.
58
I bit back another burst of laughter.
59
I didn't believe that.
60
Not for a second.
61
The chances of him, I told Rosie, being actually serious are the same chances I have of having Chris Evans pop out of nowhere
62
and confess his undying love for me.
63
I made a show of looking right and left.
64
Non -existent.
65
So, Rosie, you were saying something about Mr. Frankel, right?
66
There was no Mr. Frankel.
67
Lena, Rosie said with that fake, toothy smile I knew she wore when she didn't want to be rude.
68
He looks like he's serious, she spoke through her freaky smile.
69
Her gaze inspected the man standing behind me.
70
Yep.
71
I think he might be serious.
72
Nope.
73
He can't be.
74
I shook my head, still refusing to turn around and acknowledge that there was a possibility my friend was right.
75
There couldn't be.
76
There was no way Aaron Blackford, colleague and well -established a iction of mine, would even attempt to oer something like that.
77
No. Way.
78
An impatient sigh came from behind me.
79
This is getting repetitive, Catalina.
80
A long pause.
81
Then, another noisy exhale left his lips, this one much longer.
82
But I did not turn around.
83
I held my ground.
84
Ignoring me won't make me disappear.
85
You know that.
86
I did.
87
But that doesn't mean I won't keep trying, I muttered under my breath.
88
Rosie leveled me with a look.
89
Then, she peeked around me again, keeping that toothy grin in place.
90
Sorry about that, Aaron.
91
We are not ignoring you.
92
Her grin strained.
93
We are, debating something.
94
We are ignoring him though.
95
You don't need to spare his feelings.
96
He doesn't have any.
97
Thanks, Rosie, Aaron told my friend, some of the usual coldness leaving his voice.
98
Not that he'd be nice to anybody.
99
Nice wasn't something Aaron did.
100
I didn't even think he was able to pull oh friendly.
101
But he had always been less, grim when it came to Rosie.
102
A treatment that had never been for me.
103
Do you think you can tell Catalina to turn around?
104
I'd appreciate talking to her face and not to the back of her head.
105
His tone dropped back to minus zero degrees.
106
That is, of course, if this is not one of her jokes that I never seem to understand, much less nd funny.
107
Heat rushed up my body, reaching my face.
108
Sure, Rosie complied.
109
I think.
110
I think I can do that.
111
My friend's gaze bounced from that point behind me to my face, her eyebrows raised.
112
Lena, so, erm, Aaron would like you to turn around if this is not one of those jokes that thanks, Rosie.
113
I got that, I gritted out between my teeth.
114
Feeling my cheeks burn, I refused to face him.
115
That would mean letting him win whatever game he was playing.
116
Plus, he had just called me unfunny.
117
Him.
118
If you could, tell Aaron that I don't think one can laugh at, or much less understand, jokes when one lacks a sense of humor, please.
119
That would be great.
120
Thanks.
121
Rosie scratched the side of her head, looking pleadingly at me.
122
Don't make me do this, she seemed to ask me with her eyes.
123
I widened mine at her, ignoring her plea and begging her to go along.
124
She released a breath and then looked around me one more time.
125
Aaron, she said, her fake grin getting bigger, Lena thinks that I heard her, Rosie.
126
Thank you.
127
I was so attuned to him to this
128
that I noticed the slight change in his tone that signaled the switch to the voice he only used with me.
129
The one that was just as dry and cold but
130
that would now come with an extra layer of disdain and distance
131
The one that would soon lead to a scowl
132
I didn't even need to turn and take a look at him to know that
133
It was somehow always there when it came to me and to this thing between us
134
I'm pretty sure my words are reaching Catalina down there just na
135
But if you could tell her that I have work to do
136
and I cannot entertain this much longer I would appreciate it Down there?
137
Stupidly large man.
138
My size was average.
139
Average for a Spaniard, sure.
140
But average nonetheless.
141
I was ve foot three almost four, thank you very much.
142
Rosie's green eyes were back on me.
143
So, Aaron has work, and he would appreciate if I stopped myself when I heard the words sounding high -pitched and squeaky.
144
I cleared my throat and tried again.
145
If he is so busy, then please tell him to feel free to spare me.
146
He can go back to his O .C .E
147
and resume whatever workaholic activities he had shockingly paused to stick his nose in something that does not concern him.
148
I watched my friend's mouth open, but the man behind me spoke before a sound could come out of her lips, so, you heard what I said.
149
My OER.
150
Good.
151
A pause.
152
In which I cursed under my breath.
153
Then, what's your answer?
154
Rosie's face LED with shock one more time.
155
My gaze remained on her, and I could picture how the dark brown in my eyes was turning to red with my growing exasperation.
156
My answer?
157
What the hell was he even trying to accomplish?
158
Was this a new, inventive way of playing with my head?
159
My sanity?
160
I have no idea what he's talking about.
161
I heard nothing, I lied.
162
You can tell him that too.
163
Rosie tucked a curl behind her ear, her eyes jumping very bree to Aaron and then returning to me.
164
I think he's referring to the moment he o 'erred to be your date to your sister's wedding, she explained with a soft voice.
165
You know, right after you told me that things had changed and that you now needed to nd someone or anyone,
166
I think you said to go to Spain with you and attend that wedding because, otherwise...
167
You'd die a slow, painful death and I think I got it, I rushed out, feeling my face burn again from the realization that Aaron had heard all of that.
168
Thanks, Rosie.
169
You can stop with the recap.
170
Or I'd be dying that slow, painful death right about now.
171
I think you used the word desperate, Aaron chipped in.
172
My ears burned, probably ashing about V .E shades of radioactive red.
173
I did not, I breathed out.
174
I did not use that word.
175
You, sort of did, sweetie, my best friend no, former best friend as of right now conroomed.
176
Eyes narrowed, I mouthed, what the hell, traitor.
177
But both of them were right.
178
Fine.
179
So, I said that.
180
Doesn't mean I'm that desperate it.
181
That's what truly helpless people would say.
182
But whatever makes you sleep better at night, Catalina?
183
Cursing under my breath for the umpteenth time that morning, I closed my eyes Brie.
184
This is none of your business, Blackford, but I'm not helpless, okay?
185
And I sleep at night just any?
186
No, actually, I've never slept better.
187
What was one more lie to the pile I was hoisting around, huh?
188
Contrary to what I had just denied, I was truly, helplessly desperate to nd someone to be my date to that wedding.
189
But that didn't mean I'd sure.
190
Ironically, out of all the damn words Aaron Blackford had said to the back of my head that morning, that one word was what made me break my stance to pretend I remained una -ected.
191
That sure, sounding all condescending and bored and dismissive and just so errant.
192
Sure.
193
My blood bubbled.
194
It was so impulsive, such a knee -jerk reaction to that four -letter word which,
195
uttered by anybody else, would have meant nothing that I didn't even realize my body was turning until it was too late.
196
Because of his unearthly height, I was welcomed by a bra chest covered in a pressed white button -down
197
that made me itch to st the fabric
198
and wrinkle it with my hands because who pranced through life so sleek and spotless all the damn time?
199
Aaron Blackford that was who?
200
My gaze trailed up rounded shoulders and a strong neck, reaching the straight line of his jaw.
201
His lips pressed at Lee, just like I had known they would.
202
My eyes traveled further up then, reaching his blue one's blue that reminded me of the depths of the ocean, where everything was cold and deadly and ending them on me.
203
One of his brows rose sure i hissed yes
204
that head topped with raven hair gave one single nod his
205
gaze not leaving mine i don't want to waste more time arguing about something you are too stubborn to admit
206
so yes sure this infuriating blue -eyed man who probably spent
207
more time ironing his clothes than interacting with other human beings
208
was not going to make me lose my temper this early in the morning Fighting to keep my body under control, I inhaled a long, deep breath.
209
I tucked a lock of chestnut hair behind my ear.
210
If this is such a waste of time, I genuinely don't know what you are still doing here.
211
Please don't stay on my or Rosie's account.
212
A noncommittal noise left Miss Trader's mouth.
213
I would have, Aaron admitted in a level tone.
214
But you still haven't answered my question.
215
That wasn't a question, I said, the words tasting sour in my tongue.
216
Whatever you said was not a question.
217
But that's not important because I don't need you, thank you very much.
218
Sure, he repeated, turning my exasperation one notch up.
219
Although I think you do.
220
You think wrong.
221
That brow rose higher.
222
And yet it sounded like you really do need me.
223
Then, you must be experiencing serious hearing issues because, yet again, you heard wrong.
224
I don't need you, Aaron Blackford.
225
I swallowed, willing some of the dryness away.
226
I could write it down for you if you want.
227
Send you an email, too, if that'd help at all.
228
He seemed to think about it for a second, looking uninterested.
229
But I knew better than to believe he'd let it go so easily.
230
Which he proved as soon as he opened his mouth again.
231
Didn't you say the wedding is in a month and you don't have a date?
232
My lips pressed in a tight line.
233
Maybe.
234
I can't recall exactly.
235
I had said that.
236
Word for word.
237
Didn't Rosie suggest that if you perhaps sat in the back and tried not to draw any attention to yourself?
238
Nobody would notice you were attending on your own.
239
My friend's head popped into my elder vision.
240
I did.
241
I also suggested to wear a dull color and not the stunning red dress that Rosie, I interrupted her.
242
Not really helping here.
243
Aaron's eyes didn't waver when he resumed his walk down memory lane.
244
Didn't you follow that by reminding Rosie
245
that you were the mother freaking your word mate of honor
246
and therefore everybody and their mother your words again would notice you anyway?
247
She did, I heard Miss Trader Khan ream.
248
My head whirled in her direction.
249
What?
250
She shrugged, signing her death sentence.
251
You did, honey.
252
I needed new friends.
253
ASAP.
254
She did, Aaron corroborated, drawing my gaze and attention back to him.
255
And did you not say that your ex -boyfriend is the best man and thinking of standing in the vicinity of him,
256
alone and lame and pathetically single those were your words again made you want to tear oh your own skin.
257
I had.
258
I had said that.
259
But I hadn't thought Aaron was listening, otherwise, I would have never admitted it out loud.
260
But he had been right there, apparently.
261
He knew now.
262
He had heard me openly admit that and had just thrown it at my face.
263
And as much as I told myself I didn't care
264
that I shouldn't care the pang of hurt was there all the same.
265
It made me feel all the more alone, lame, and pathetic.
266
Swallowing the lump in my throat, I averted my eyes, letting them rest somewhere close to his Adam's apple.
267
I didn't want to see whatever was in his face.
268
Mockery.
269
Pity.
270
I didn't care.
271
I could spare the knowledge of one more person thinking of me that way.
272
His throat was the one that worked then.
273
I knew because it was the only part of him I allowed myself to look at.
274
You are desperate.
275
I exhaled, the air leaving my lips forcefully.
276
One nod that was all I gave him.
277
And I didn't even understand why I had done it.
278
This wasn't me.
279
I usually fought back until I was the one who drew blood RST.
280
Because that was what we did.
281
We didn't spare each other's feelings.
282
This wasn't new.
283
Then, take me.
284
I will be your date to the wedding, Catalina.
285
My gaze drew up very slowly, a strange mix of weariness and embarrassment washing over me.
286
Him witnessing all this was bad enough, but him somehow trying to use it to his advantage.
287
To get the better of me?
288
Unless he wasn't.
289
Unless perhaps there was an explanation, a reason, as to why he was doing this.
290
Oh, erring himself to be my date.
291
Studying his face, I pondered all these options and possible motivations, not coming to any kind of reasonable conclusion.
292
Not ending any possible answer that would help me understand why or what he was trying to accomplish.
293
Only the truth.
294
The reality.
295
We weren't friends.
296
We barely tolerated each other, Aaron Blackford and I.
297
We were spiteful to each other, pointed out each other's mistakes, criticized how de -errantly we worked, thought, and lived.
298
We condemned our de -errances.
299
At some point in the past, I would have thrown darts at a poster of his face.
300
And I was pretty sure he would have done the same because I wasn't the only one driving along Haight Boulevard.
301
It was a two -way road.
302
Not only that, but it had actually been him, the one causing our fallout.
303
I hadn't started this feud between us. So, why?
304
Why was he pretending to oer me help, and why would I humor him by even considering it?
305
I might be desperate to endia date, but I'm not that desperate, I repeated.
306
Just like I said.
307
His sigh was tired.
308
Impatient.
309
Infuriating.
310
I'll let you think about it.
311
You know you have no other options.
312
Nothing to think about.
313
I cut my hand through the air between us.
314
Then, I smiled my version of Rosie's fake, toothy grin.
315
I'd take a chimpanzee dressed in a tuxedo before taking you.
316
His eyebrows rose, amusement barely entering his eyes.
317
Now, come on, we both know you wouldn't.
318
While there are chimpanzees that would rise up to the occasion, it will be your ex standing there.
319
Your family.
320
You said you need to make an impression, and I will accomplish exactly that.
321
He tilted his head.
322
I'm your best option.
323
I snorted, clapping my hands once.
324
Smug blue -eyed pain in my ass.
325
You are my best nothing, Blackford.
326
And I have plenty of other options, I countered, shrugging a shoulder.
327
I'll ND someone on Tinder.
328
Maybe put out an ad in the New York Times.
329
I can ND someone.
330
In only a few weeks.
331
Highly unlikely.
332
Rosie has friends.
333
I'll take one of them.
334
That had been my plan all along.
335
It was the reason why I had grabbed Rosie so early in the day.
336
Rookie mistake on my part, I realized.
337
I should have waited to get a work and gotten Rosie to a safe, errand -free place to talk.
338
But after yesterday's call with Mama, yeah.
339
Things had changed.
340
My situation had denately changed.
341
I needed someone, and I couldn't stress enough that anyone would do.
342
Anyone who wasn't Aaron, of course.
343
Rosie had been born and raised in the city.
344
There had to be someone she knew.
345
Right, Rosie.
346
One of your friends must be available.
347
My friend's head popped in again.
348
Maybe Marty?
349
He loves weddings.
350
I shot a quick glance at her.
351
Wasn't Marty the one who got drunk at your cousin's wedding, stole the mic from the band, and sang My Heart Will Go On Until Your Brother Had To Drag Him O The Stage?
352
That would be him.
353
She winced.
354
Yeah, no. I couldn't have that at my sister's wedding.
355
She'd rip his heart out of his chest and serve it as dessert.
356
What about Ryan?
357
Happily engaged.
358
A sigh left my lips.
359
Not surprised.
360
Ryan is a total catch.
361
I know.
362
That's why I tried so many times to get you two together, but you I cleared my throat loudly, interrupting her.
363
We aren't discussing why I am single.
364
I quickly glanced back at Aaron.
365
His eyes were on me, narrowed.
366
How about.
367
Terry.
368
Moved to Chicago.
369
Dammit.
370
I shook my head, closing my eyes for an instant.
371
This was useless.
372
Then, I'll hire an actor.
373
Pay him to act as my date.
374
That's probably expensive, Aaron said atly.
375
And actors aren't exactly lying around, waiting for single people to hire and parade them as their plus ones.
376
I pinned him with an exasperated look.
377
I'll get a professional escort.
378
His lips pressed in that tight, almost hermetic way they did when he was extremely irritated.
379
You'd take a male prostitute to your sister's wedding before taking me.
380
I said, an escort, Blackford.
381
Poor Dios, I muttered, watching his eyebrows bunch and turn into the scowl.
382
I'm not looking for that kind of service.
383
I just need a companion.
384
That's all they do.
385
They escort you to events.
386
That's not what they do, Catalina.
387
His voice was deep and icy.
388
Covering me in his frosty judgment.
389
Haven't you watched any romantic comedies ever?
390
I watched the scowl deepen.
391
Not even the wedding date.
392
No answer, just more of that arctic staring.
393
Do you even watch movies?
394
Or do you just, work?
395
There was a possibility that he didn't even own a television.
396
His expression didn't change.
397
God, I don't have time for this. For him.
398
You know what?
399
Not important.
400
I don't care.
401
I threw my hands up and then clasped them together.
402
Thank you for this.
403
Whatever it was.
404
Great input.
405
But I don't need you.
406
I think you do.
407
I blinked at him.
408
I think you are annoying.
409
Catalina, he started, making my irritation grow with the way he uttered my name.
410
You are delusional if you think you can ND someone in such a short amount of time.
411
Once more, Aaron Blackford wasn't wrong.
412
I probably was a little delusional.
413
And he didn't even know about the lie.
414
My lie.
415
Not that he'd ever do.
416
But that didn't change the facts.
417
I needed someone, anyone, but not him, not Aaron, to why to Spain with me for Isabel's wedding. Because, a.
418
I was the bride's sister and maid of honor.
419
b.
420
My ex.
421
Daniel, was the groom's brother and best man.
422
And as of yesterday, I had learned that he was happily engaged.
423
Something that my family had been hiding from me.
424
See, if you didn't count the few and pretty unsuccessful dates I had gone on, I had been technically single for roughly six years.
425
Ever since I had left Spain and moved to the States, which had happened shortly after my one and only relationship exploded in my face.
426
Something that every single attendee because there were no secrets in families like mine
427
and much less in small towns like the one I had come from knew about and pitted me for.
428
And, d, there was my lie.
429
The lie.
430
The one I had sort of fed my mother
431
and consequently the whole Martine clan because privacy and boundaries did not exist when it came to us.
432
Hell, by now, my lie was probably on the announcements page of the local newspaper.
433
Catalina Martine, Nally, not single.
434
Her family is happy to announce that she will bring her American boyfriend to the wedding.
435
Everyone is invited to come and witness the most magical event of the decade.
436
Because that was what I had done.
437
Right after the news of Daniel's engagement had slipped past my mother's lips
438
and reached my ears through the speaker of my phone, I had said that I'd be bringing someone too.
439
No, not just someone.
440
I'd said lied, deceived, falsely announced that I'd be bringing my boyfriend.
441
Who technically did not exist. Yet.
442
Okay, any, or ever.
443
Because Aaron was right.
444
Finding a date in such a short amount of time was perhaps a little optimistic.
445
Believing I'd nd someone to pretend to be my made -up boyfriend was probably delusional.
446
But accepting that Aaron was my only choice and taking him up on his OER?
447
That was straight -up insanity.
448
I see its nally seeping in.
449
Aaron's words brought me back to the present, and I found his blue eyes aimed at me.
450
I'll let you come to terms with it on your own.
451
Just let me know when you do.
452
My lips pursed.
453
And when I felt my cheeks burn again because how lame was I for him, Aaron Blackford, who had never even liked me a tiny little bit,
454
to pity me enough to oer himself to be my date, I crossed my arms over my chest and averted my eyes from those two icy and ruthless spots.
455
Oh, and, Catalina.
456
Yeah.
457
The word left my lips weakly.
458
Ugh, pathetic.
459
Try not to be late to our ten o 'clock meeting.
460
It's not cute anymore.
461
My gaze shot to him, a who stuck in my throat.
462
Jerk.
463
I swore right then and there that one day, I'd end a ladder high enough, climb it, and chuck something really hard at his infuriating face.
464
One year and eight months.
465
That was how long I had endured him.
466
I had been counting, biding my time.
467
Then, with nothing more than a nod, he turned around, and I watched him walk away.
468
Dismissed until further notice.
469
Okay, that was, Rosie's voice trailed O, not ending the statement.
470
Maddening.
471
Insulting.
472
Bizarre.
473
I O aired, bringing my hands to my face.
474
Unexpected, she countered. And interesting.
475
Looking at her between my engers, I watched the corners of her lips tug up.
476
Your friendship has been revoked, Rosalind Graham.
477
She chuckled.
478
You know you don't mean that.
479
I didn't, she'd never get rid of me.
480
So, Rosie linked her arm with mine and ushered me down the hallway.
481
What are you going to do?
482
A shaky exhale left my mouth, taking all my energy with it.
483
I I don't have the slightest idea.
484
But I knew something for sure, I was not taking Aaron Blackford up on his OER.
485
He wasn't my only option, and he surely wasn't my best one either.
486
Hell, he wasn't my anything.
487
Especially not my date to my sister's wedding.
488
Thank you.
489
Thank you.
