Seriously, where is this coming from? I don’t like the look on her face. Worried. Sad. She must be projecting. She’s had a shitty time of it, and now she thinks all guys are alike.
“We’re good, Gen.”
She lets out a slow breath. “Cool.” She smiles her warm smile and my stomach sinks.
Shit.
Are Eric and I fine?
Things didn’t feel fine a moment ago. I’ve never worried about him, but I’ve been busy. Now that school has ended . . . have things changed?
No, they’re still great. I’m overreacting. We’ll spend time together at the lake and get back on track.
I notice a crease between Gen’s brows. I can’t take that look. “What about you? Ready to start dating?”
She digs her heels into the gravel. “Sure. If a good guy comes along.”
Gen’s said this before, but she seems uncertain. It’s been a month since she got her heart crushed. Not long enough to heal, but we’ve talked about this. Sometimes getting back out there is the only way to pull out of a slump.
Eric splashes toward us from the water, droplets running down his toned pecs and abs. I will never tire of the sight. I smile at him and he grins back.
Eric and I are good. Of course we’re good. Gen will be good too. As soon as I find her a nice guy.
She’s smart, beautiful, and funny as hell, though she doesn’t know it, which makes her even more hilarious. I’m lucky to have a solid boyfriend, and I want that for her.
With the extra seasonal help at the casino this summer, there should be at least a few decent prospects. If not, we’ll scout the local hotspots. Most of my friends from home are either still in college or have found jobs in the city, but the populace of a vacation town is ever-changing. Lots of dating possibilities. I’ll find someone for her, or at least distract her from the slump she’s in and show her a good time.
Lake Tahoe is all about the high. How can I fail?
