Chapter 315: (Bonus Scene) Enjoy It to the Fullest
** Tyler **
"Um, Chelsea ..." Tyler fumbled a little for words. Was there even a delicate way to put this at all? He wanted to be honest, but he didn’t want to sound like an ass. "Um, so, about last night ..."
Chelsea cocked her head. Unusually for her, she didn’t say anything as she waited for him to finish that sentence.
"Well, I was ... quite drunk."
Right. How eloquent.
"... And?" She waited a few more moments until he stayed quiet for too long. Then she raised an eyebrow. "Don’t you dare tell me you regret it. That trope is disgusting."
"What? N-No, of course not! I mean ... Yes, sort of? But not really— I mean, not in that way!"
Fuck, he was so very good at this, and he could tell from the instant narrowing of those pretty eyes that he was about to get kicked in a very inconvenient part of his body if he continued to be ambiguous. "Fuck." He tousled his hair with a frustrated groan. "I mean, I just ... I got too excited and had a few too many drinks ... and I don’t really remember much about how the rest happened."
"... You what?" The narrowing eyes went wide now at his words. "You don’t remember offering to walk me back to my room at the end of the party? Or you don’t remember promising loudly to Harper that you’d stay to take good care of me all night and make sure I don’t wake up with a hangover? Or you don’t remember how well you did take care of me even though you are the one waking up with your memory obliterated?"
