which I assumed led to the master bedroom, but we stopped short of reaching them. He lead me into another room, which was enormous and had a loft inside of it that nearly doubled the living space. The bedroom was bare except for the furniture. It was clearly an unused guestroom, but my mind immediately wandered with thoughts of how I could make it my own.
    "Nice right?"
    "Yes, it's huge."
    "Here's the bathroom," he pushed open a door to an Asian-inspired bath with muted gray and sandy tones. Pebbles and bamboo were strategically used as accents in just the right proportions, in keeping with the Asian theme without being too garish. I could see myself reading many books in the soaking tub this summer. "I'm just a few doors down. We'd be roomies," he said jokingly.
    "I guess we would," I laughed uncomfortably.
    By the way, I should remind you that he was STILL shirtless. His perfect body made my eyes shifty and my body language rigid. It forced me to maintain near constant eye contact with his baby blue eyes, which were very striking despite his lax demeanor.
    "So that's everything. I just need you to accept so we can have a wild summer."
    We both had no idea just how wild it was going to get.
     
     
     

 
    CHAPTER FIVE
     
    I called Mindy during my drive back home. Heath invited me to stay for lunch since I had driven so far, but I declined, telling him I needed to get back home. There was a lot to think about and I had to get out of that den of debauchery while his supermodel sex-kitten piece of ass was gallivanting around in next to nothing.
    "How did it go?" were her first words when she answered my call.
    "Bizarre. He's so full of himself and he had a naked model prancing around the house the entire time!" Mindy howled with laughter on the other line. "I'm glad you think this is so funny."
    "I'm sorry," she said between breaths. "It's just that I know he can be a bit much, but I didn't want to turn you off to him. I thought he might surprise me and behave."
    "A warning would have been nice."
    "I didn't know he would have a naked chick there. I just thought he would be his usual careless self."
    "Careless would be the understatement of the century. He offered me weed for fuck's sake."
    "What!" Mindy howled again. I was so glad this whole scenario was such a source of enjoyment for her.
    "Yes, he pulled out a bowl and lit up. Oh, and he didn't have a shirt on, and he answered the door half asleep after like ten fucking minutes of me waiting outside."
    "Okay, okay..." she caught her breath. "Besides him being high and shirtless, did you get the job?"
    "Besides those minor details, yes, he offered me the job. He would have offered a homeless person the job. I think he might have still been drunk from last night. I felt like I was just there so he could brag to me about his amazing, party-fueled life. He didn't ask me about my qualifications or anything. I'm not even sure I want it."
    "So you did get it? Yay!"
    "He offered it, with good pay too. Like I said, I haven't accepted."
    "You have to take it! It's only a few months and you'll make so many connections. How bad could it be? Think about it, what seemed to be really inappropriate professional behavior could make for a really fun summer."
    "I can't stand guys like him."
    "You can't stand guys like him because you have a weakness for arrogant assholes and you always end up dating them. As long as you stay in the friend-zone guys like that are really fun to be around. They're really only jerks to the women they feel they have power over. Speaking of arrogant assholes, guess who I saw last night at Nobu?"
    "Don't tell me." I knew who she was going to name. My ex had recently moved down the block from her and she had already spotted him several times.
    "Kenneth, with some future Real Housewife on his arm. And you know what he had the nerve to do?"
    "Don't wanna know..."
    "When he came over to my table so say hi, he asked about you!"
    "Did you tell him I moved? Far away? To
