I frown. “I did, too. I always told you that I wanted to settle down, start a family, and have a normal life.”

Jamie sighs. “Yes, you always told me that, but it isn’t what you wanted.”

I shake my head. “It is what I wanted. It’s still what I want.”

Jamie laughs. “I know you, Sean Burrows, better than you know yourself. You don’t want a suburban house, and you don’t want kids. I’m not even sure if you want a wife. You want adventure. You want someone who challenges you. You don’t want to settle down.”

“You’re wrong.”

Jamie sighs. “Then, tell me what you really want.” She folds her hands in her lap and gives me her full attention, like that is going to make me change my mind about how I feel.

I open my mouth, but then I close it because I don’t know.

“Tell me you want to fuck a hot blonde. Tell me you want a threesome. Tell me you want to travel the world and meet every woman you can in every city.”

“I can’t.”

She rolls her eyes. “I’m right about this, Sean.”

Her phone buzzes, and she picks it up to read the text message she got.

“Is that from Olive?” I ask.

Jamie starts typing into her phone, responding to the message. “No.”

I frown and sink back into the couch, wanting to hear any news about what Olive is doing now. How is the baby doing? Did she take Owen back?

A slow smile creeps up on Jamie’s face. “I can’t believe I didn’t see it before.”

“See what?” I ask.

“That something is going on between you and Olive.”

I stand up from the couch. “There was something going on.”

She stands up, studying me, and then she points a finger at me. “Oh my God! You love her.”

“Yes.”

“Then, what are you doing here? Go get her.”

I shake my head. “It’s more complicated than that.”

“How so?”

“For one, she’s pregnant with another man’s baby.”

“So?”

“Didn’t you just give me some speech about how you and I couldn’t be together because you wanted babies, and I didn’t?”

“Yes, but Olive is different.”

“How?”

“She wants the same things you do.”

I run my hand through my hair. “You are frustrating, Jamie.”
