for it,” Nikki suggests. The problem with that whole plan: when you’re dealing with real feelings, you can get hurt.
    The apartment door opens and Ethan peeks his head in.
    “Hey, don’t want to interrupt girl’s night, but I thought you ladies might be hungry.” He holds up a pizza box with a cute smirk on his face.
    “Did you do this for brownie points?” Abby asks, suspicion lacing her tone.
    “Yes ma’am,” Ethan replies with an honest smile. My chest clenches at the way he looks at her, like she’s the only woman in the world.
    “Brownie points earned,” she assures him, pecking him on the cheek.
    Ethan sets the pizzas down on the table and then pulls Abby in close for a tender kiss. I want that. The question is, can I even have that? I sigh when they part and everyone looks at me.
    “Sorry. I was just worrying that maybe it’s too late for me. Maybe I’ll never get a nice guy like Dex because nice guys like Dex don’t want skanks, even skanks trying to reform.”
    “A guy who really likes you won’t care about your history,” Ethan assures me. “Just give him a chance to get to know you.”
    “I’ll think about it,” I concede.

Dex
    As I finish up my tutoring for the day, I make my way back to my apartment. I haven’t been able to stop thinking about Remy since her tutoring session two days ago. That’s a lie. I haven’t been able to stop thinking about her since I met her last week. My phone buzzes in my pocket and I see a text from an unknown number. My heart leaps into my chest with the irrational hope that Remy changed her mind about letting me take her on a date tomorrow night.
unknown number: I’m not agreeing to a date...but I wouldn’t object to just hanging out...if you still want
    I can’t wipe the smile off of my face when I realize that it is Remy. Not agreeing to a date seems like a technicality. She’s giving me a chance to get to know her and spend time with her. That’s the point of a date that she was missing to begin with.
Dex: You’re not still trying to seduce me are you?
Remy:Not at the moment ;)
Dex: I’m done tutoring today, want to get together tonight?
Remy: Sorry cowboy, I have work. Come by my place tomorrow night whenever you’re free. We can hang out, maybe grab a bite if you’re hungry.
Dex: Sounds good darlin, see you tomorrow
    As soon as I get home I can’t wait to skype my little princess.
    “Hi, Dexter,” my mom beams warmly through my phone screen.
    “Hey, Ma.”
    “Daddy!” I hear an excited shriek as Maya climbs into my mom’s lap and positions herself to see me. “You’re coming to see me in two days, right Daddy?”
    “That’s right princess. I can’t wait to see you. I hope you made me a ton of pictures to take home and put up on my refrigerator.”
    “I have lots of pictures for you,” she assures me.
    “How have things been with you Dexter? School still going well?” my mom asks from behind Maya’s blond head.
    “School’s good. Not much new.” I consider telling her about Remy, but I don’t want to count any chickens before they hatch. To be honest, I don’t want to jinx our non-date by telling anyone about it.
    “Alright, well we’re looking forward to seeing you. Drive safe, okay sweetheart?”
    “Yes, ma’am. Love you both.”
    “Love you Daddy.”

Remy
    The sound of my buzzer startles me around 6pm on Friday. I look down at my phone and see that I missed a text from Dex about fifteen minutes ago saying he was on his way. Great, I didn’t get a chance to make myself presentable before he got here. Oh, well. I wipe the charcoal coating my fingers onto my already smudged sweatpants and get up to buzz Dex in. My door creaks open a minute later while I’m still putting my art supplies away.
    “Is that your art?” Dex asks, his eyes wide with interest as he eyes the sketch book in my hands.
    I pause for a moment. I know he’s really asking if he can see it. I rarely share my art. I’m proud of my
