“What in the fuck is he doing here?” Trevor demanded. “Did you know he was here?”

“No! Of course not.” Turning to Trevor, I watched his jaw flex. I was so angry at Eric for just showing up and waiting for me like this. He and I needed to have a talk. I had no idea why he was acting this way. I never led him to believe I thought of him as anything more than a friend.

“Let me handle this, please.”

“How can you not be pissed at him after what he did?”

I sighed heavily. “I am angry, Trevor, but Eric was there for me when I needed a friend, and I can’t turn my back on him because you don’t like him.”

The grip Trevor had on the steering wheel tightened so much his knuckles turned white.

When he met my gaze, I gasped. His blue eyes looked grey and I could feel the anger in them. “I would have been here for you had you told me about the baby.”

Placing my hand on his arm, I gave it a squeeze. “I thought we were starting over. Let’s not do this, especially in front of Eric.”

Trevor’s body relaxed, and he shook his head, probably to clear his mind of the things he was plotting to do to Eric. “You’re right, I’m sorry. It’s just, seeing him makes me want to throat punch his ass every single time.”

I chuckled. “Stop it. Are you going back to your place to change?”

Trevor looked at me like I was insane. “Hell no. I’ll run over to Cord’s and grab a shirt from him and shower and change at your place.”

I raised an eyebrow.

“What?” he asked, giving me a fake, innocent smile.

“Behave, Trevor Parker, do you hear me? We’re in this situation because I couldn’t say no to you.”

He winked, and I tried to ignore the butterflies in my stomach.

“Let me get the door for you.”

There was no use in arguing, Trevor insisted on helping me out of the truck every single time. I watched as he walked around the front, ignoring Eric along the way.

A part of me was disappointed that Trevor didn’t try to hold onto my hand as we walked up the steps to my porch. I was positive he didn’t want Eric to see if I pulled my hand away. I wouldn’t have. I didn’t need to give Eric any ideas that he might have a chance with me.

“Eric, what are you doing here?” I asked. Trevor stood next to me, his hands in his pockets. The way he was staring at Eric should have made him drop to the ground.

“I wanted to make sure you were okay.”

“She’s fine, so you can leave now,” Trevor stated.

When I shot a warning look in his direction, Trevor sighed.

“Trevor, why don’t you run over to Cord’s? I need to talk to Eric.”

He opened his mouth to protest but stopped when I pleaded with my eyes.

Trevor leaned down and kissed me on the forehead like it was second nature. He whispered, “I’ll only be a minute.”

I watched him head down the steps to his truck. It wasn’t hard to notice that he paused before climbing in. I knew it had to be hard for him to leave me here with Eric.

Smiling, I watched him back out of the driveway and head to the square. I figured I had about fifteen minutes or less to get things settled with Eric.

“So, I see you’ve just let him back into your life. Where were you?”

For the first time since I’d been friends with Eric, I didn’t want to see him. Let alone talk to him.

How dare he treat me this way?

With my keys in my hand, I faced my door and unlocked it. “Would you like something to drink? How long have you been sitting out here?”

Eric huffed and followed me in. “I’d love some water. I’ve been here about thirty minutes. I saw your car and figured you went for a walk.”

Making my way into the kitchen, I pulled out two bottles of water and handed one to Eric.

He opened the water and nearly drank the whole bottle before sitting on a stool and waiting for me to talk.

“First of all, Trevor is always going to be in my life because we’re having a child together. As far as where we were, it’s honestly none of your business, but I’ll tell you anyway. We told our parents about the baby.”

His brows shot up. “Wow. How did that go?”

With a shrug, I replied, “It could have gone better. Our folks are going out to eat with us to celebrate, so I need to make this quick so I can get ready.”

Eric’s eyes looked sad.

Before I had a chance to speak, he started in.

“Scarlett, a man like that doesn’t change his colors overnight.”
