Andrea?"
"Yes, of course," Will replied. "That's why I made sure we were done in less than an hour. Clarise was supposed to go with me but she couldn't fit it in her schedule."
"Did you tell her Andrea wanted me back?"
"Yeah, I told her what Andrea and I talked about. She wasn't happy to learn about Antoinette being all crazy about me. I wanted to reassure her we didn't talk about Antoinette."
He chuckled. "You are so under your girlfriend's thumb, Matthews!"
"Am not."
"Are, too! Anyway, what I want to know is does Clarise have any plans to warn Jessa off me?"
Will was silent for a beat. "No, not really."
"Not really?"
"Well, she hasn't mentioned anything about protecting Jessa from you, if that's what you mean. Although the girls have plans in place so Jessa can meet new guys."
"What?"
"I don't think it's particularly so she doesn't see you again. It's more like they want Jessa to meet a potential boyfriend, so they're helping her find dates. They all know you're not boyfriend material."
Rob's head started to throb as the unwanted image of Jessa dating other guys popped into his imagination. No! "How exactly are they helping her find dates?"
"I heard Clarise on the phone encouraging her to go to this speed dating thing they found for her tomorrow night."
"Tomorrow night? Is she going?" he asked in a strangled voice.
"I don't know. You sound funny. What's wrong?"
"Fuck if I know." He exhaled harshly. "I'm so goddamn attracted to Jessa I can't think straight. I don't want her going out with other men but I also don't want to be in a relationship with her. Man, I have a serious need to get laid."
"So fucking get laid then, Rob. But don't mess with my girlfriend's best friend."
Rob looked out his office window and ran a hand over his face. "I can't seem to get off with anyone else."
"What?" The shock in Will's voice was evident. "You mean 'Sex God' Rob has performance problems?" Will started to laugh. Evidently, the thought of him not being able to perform in bed was just too funny.
"Shut up! It's not like that."
Will laughed harder.
"Matthews, shut up and listen to me. I haven't taken any woman to bed lately, that's what. I just haven't tried. I want Jessa and I'm waiting to have her first before … I move on to the next one." He shook his head at the stupidity of his logic. "Shit, that's crazy."
Will had calmed down. "So what are you going to do?"
"Go pick up tonight and get laid," he growled. "So I better finish up here and have an early start to my hunt."
"Okay, then. Good luck."
"You know I don't need luck picking up chicks."
"I mean good luck in getting it up." Will was laughing again.
"Fuck off," Rob barked good-naturedly.
*******
Will sat back in his chair, rubbing his chin. His amusement had died down and he thought about what Rob had confessed.
'I can't seem to get off with anyone else.'
He understood what that meant. He wouldn't be able to get off with anyone else either, wouldn't even be able to get his dick hard if it wasn't Clarise he was with. But the only reason that was the case was because he didn't want to be with anyone else. He was in love with Clarise.
Holy shit. Rob--in love? With Jessa?
He resolved to get to the bottom of this.
CHAPTER SEVEN
Jessa stood nervously outside the speed dating venue, half-hoping she didn't have to go in. What if no one picked her tonight? There were at least fourteen other single girls there for the single guys to choose from. But her friends seemed pretty sure she would have at least one date after this.
She wasn't really keen to be matched up with anyone at the moment. It was just the thought of Rob possibly spending his sexual energy on some other woman in Melbourne that made her agree to go. She wasn't going to wallow and wait for him.
"It's not fair that you're all going to have a nice dinner together and I'll be by myself in there," she complained to Clarise and Faye.
The two women, along with Will, Victor and Evan were going out
"Yes, of course," Will replied. "That's why I made sure we were done in less than an hour. Clarise was supposed to go with me but she couldn't fit it in her schedule."
