I couldn't sleep with her next to me, he said. She was tossing and turning, not to mention I couldn't stop looking at her. Her blonde hair rolled up onto her head in a knot, my college t-shirt, and her Superman underwear- I just couldn't take my eyes off of her. She was beautiful.

In the morning when I was still looking at her she smiled wide, loving that I was already (well, still), awake. She kissed my forehead and slid closer.

"Dude, what are you doing, you said you didn't love her."
"I can't help it, the way she looks at me I know she's in love with me."
"That's all you man, you should tell Victoria, though if you're gonna leave her for Keri."
"Pat, really, I've got this, I think I really do love Keri."
"Then tell Vic, you have to, Alex. She's got a ring on her left hand, remember?"
"Yeah, but she's back in Ohio, and Ker's in New York, remember?"
"Whatever man, just don't mess it up."
