Me: I wasn’t actually arrested, he just threatened.
Remi: This better be good, I was almost asleep.
Remi: Okay, sorry, just read your message. Holy shit. What a dick.
Kat: I guess if you had been arrested, you’d be calling and not texting anyway.
Me: Second, he totally came on to me. Like he thought we would still get together and run off into the sunset.
Kat: Wait, what?
Remi: What she said.
Me: He said, and I quote: I can give you what you want. Things aren’t going to last with Elise. I’ll get rid of her and it will be you, me, and the kids.
Remi: I can’t even. There are no words.
Kat: O. M. G. That’s a new low and I defended hardened criminals for a living.
Me: Right?
Me: I’m freaking out a bit. I mean, just a few hours ago I was convinced that Trevor was it for me. Now I know he’s a lying cheat. So, what happens to those feelings? Do they just go away? Do I have to replace them with something else? Someone else?
Kat: That would be a rebound, baby girl. Maybe not the best option.
Remi: I second that.
Me: Which brings me to my next point.
Kat: Hot cowboy?
Me: Yes! He asked me out for tomorrow night.
Remi: What did you say?
Me: I said yes. Does that mean he’s my rebound?
Remi: Not necessarily.
Kat: Most definitely.
Me: Seriously?
Kat: Okay, not necessarily.
Remi: Well, probably.
Me: Ohmigod. Which is it?
Remi: Well, for real, I think it depends. You had Trevor in your head a long time, but there wasn’t ever an actual relationship. I mean, not really. So, I think it could go either way for you.
Kat: Agreed.
Me: How was I SO wrong about Trevor?
Kat: It happens. We’ve all been there.
Me: Okay, but I don’t even mean about him being an absolute jerk. He was married this whole time. And when he was here before. Or at the very least, he had someone in NY and they shared a kid. He was here for two months! WTF?
