(Wouldn\u2019t happen like a sexual thing, Ross is strictly dickly, but I do have something.)<\/p>\n

Isiah had noticed the woman hitting on a bunch of people the night before at the bar, drunk and not at all safe to drive and he doubted she would want to wake up next to some of the people she was hitting on, so when she made her way to him he pretended to accept it and took her back to his hotel room but got her to sleep, covering her with the blanket when she finally did and getting himself as comfortable as he could on the couch, reluctantly taking a pain killer to do so so his leg wouldn\u2019t wake him up, but he was still up before she was.<\/p>\n

“Hey, how\u2019d you sleep?” he asked, keeping his voice low when she awoke.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The room was strange. Okay, so maybe Summer had kind of expected that \u2014 she\u2019d wanted to drown out those memories in someone else, after all.<\/p>\n

But it didn\u2019t feel like she\u2019d succeeded. There was nobody in the double bed but her, and the sheets weren\u2019t rumpled enough to suggest anyone had been in the bed. She thought back to the night before \u2014<\/p>\n

\u2014 and rolled over, mortified, to hide under the pillow.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Oh, god. I\u2019m \/so\/ sorry.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Isiah was slightly confused by her apology, heaving himself up and grabbing his cane, limping over to the little fridge and getting a bottle of water and offering it to her. \u201cWhy are you apologizing? What\u2019ve you done wrong?\u201d he asked, keeping his voice low.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

“I hit on you,” Summer said, into the pillow. His footsteps sounded funny, and after a moment she decided it had something to do with that pain he was feeling. “I hit on you, and you’re gay, and I was really drunk. I’m \/such\/ an idiot sometimes.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
