“Ryah, you have nothing to worry about, it won’t happen again-”
I cut him off. “You’re right. We’re just friends. You don’t want my boyfriend to think there’s anything more. He doesn’t play well with others when it comes to me. Rocco will annihilate you.”
Anger morphed to frustration on his face. “You’ve made it crystal clear we’re just friends.”
His sad eyes met mine. “I don’t want to lose your friendship.”
He flashed a half smile. “Let’s get back to the assignment. We have to turn it in soon.”
I squeezed my neck. “Ok.”
If Rocco thought Levi liked me more than he already did, he’d kill him. Levi would be a distant memory. Sleeping with the fishes. I didn’t want that for my friend. We got along great and we had fun when we hung out. He needed to remember our friendship was on the line.
