Scarlett climbs out of the car while I clench my hand, and my jaw muscles get a good workout.

Just before she closes the door, I duck and call out.“But I’m not sorry for last night.I don’t care what you say.”

She hesitates a split second, then says, “Neither am I.”

Slam.

A smile that shouldn’t exist sneaks onto my lips, and I peal the Maserati away from the curb with a squeal.Because Scarlett didn’t say that she doesn’t love me.

Details matter.
