Obviously, none of my friends heard or someone would have told me.” Arlene paused. “Can I share the news?”
Melissa shot her sister a sideways glance. “You just can’t wait to start making calls, can you?”
Arlene couldn’t help smiling. “Well, this is big news.”
“Aaron said they’ve finally started letting people know, just now, so it’s not a secret.”
“It’s not surprising,” Arlene said. “The stories of his cheating were rampant. I guess despite what Ella said, she finally had enough.”
“I guess so.”
Melissa led the way across the driveway and out to the street where her car was parked. Aaron clearly had a way with women. Not only was he gorgeous, he was charming. And successful. With his level of success came a certain amount of confidence. Of arrogance. Of expectation.
It was why he’d so easily put his arms around her and pulled her close on the dance floor, as if he expected that his mere presence would drive her crazy. She didn’t want to know how many women he’d seduced with that easy smile and just the right touch.
Still, her body couldn’t quite shake the hint of excitement his touch elicited.
Good grief, she was pathetic.
She pulled her keys from her purse and unlocked the door, then tried to shake off the memory of Aaron’s arms around her waist. A memory that brought her back to twelve years ago. Twelve years ago on the lake, under a moonlit sky, tenderly kissing the young man she’d thought she would love forever.
Losing her virginity to him.
That was ancient history, a very long time ago.
Melissa would do well to remember that.
