the heck? You stood me up and you’re ignoring my calls,” she whines. It’s annoying.
    “Sorry, I’ve been busy. Listen, Carly, I’m done with Plunge. I’m going to take a job with my dad and I can’t have both lives.” It’s true. In fact, my dad would kill me.
    “Are you fucking kidding me? You could’ve given me a heads up, Adam. I have to find someone else and that’s going to take time. I’m going to lose tons of money. This is bullshit!” She’s livid and I don’t blame her. I should have given her some notice, but there’s no way that I’m making another film and fucking things up with Sam.
    “Sorry, Carly, I really am. I can give you names of some guys I know who will be all for it.”
    “That’s not the point, Adam. Girls pay to see you, not me. Our main demographic is female.”
    “Then start working the fucking male end, Carly. Step up your game. The days of you living off my cock are done.” Fuck her.
    “You’ll regret this, Adam.” She hangs up without another word.
    I won’t regret it. In fact, now that I’ve met Sam I regret having ever been involved with Plunge. Outside of the fact that I met her, of course. The fact she even wants to be with me knowing my past is a miracle. I’m not going to fuck it up for money and definitely not for Carly.
    I pull into the parking lot at the local florist. I’m bringing her flowers tonight. She deserves them. Just thinking about her makes me smile.
    I sound like such a fucking girl.
    I grab my phone and dial my buddy Bryce. “Hey,” he answers.
    “Hey, man. You interested in some serious cash?”
    “You know it. What’s this about?” he asks half-interested.
    “You know that Plunge site? The main star, Carly, is looking for a partner. I know her and she asked me to hook her up with someone clean.” Half-truths.
    “Yeah, send her my info, man. I’m game for nailing that piece.”
    I cringe. I don’t care about Carly, never have, but the thought of passing partners makes me feel slightly sick. “No problem.” I hang up the phone and shoot Carly an olive branch.
    Bryce. Give him a call. He’s a good dude and clean.
    I plug in his number and hit send. When she sees Bryce, she’ll forget all about my leaving her hanging. The girls fall all over themselves for him.
    I head inside the flower store and I’m immediately assaulted by a thousand different scents. I walk towards the roses because what girl doesn’t like roses? The lady behind the counter steps out.
    “Can I help you with something?”
    “I’m going on a first date tonight and I really want to make it special for her.”
    “Hmmm. Red roses? I don’t think so. They aren’t first date flowers. Roses symbolize love and passion,” she says off-handed.
    “Uh, okay, what would you suggest?” I came for roses, but she’s the expert on flowers for every occasion. As much as I feel like I’m falling for Sam, I’m not ready to go throwing the L-word around.
    “How about a bouquet of pink roses? Or perhaps pink and white mixed roses?” She looks at me expectantly.
    “I thought you just said roses say I love you?” I ask confused.
    “I said red roses. Pay attention.” She smiles, showing she’s teasing me.
    “A bouquet of pink and white roses it is.”
    She smiles wider and heads off to do her thing. My phone vibrates in my pocket and I dread to look. I don’t want Carly to spoil any more of my day. When I see Samantha’s name, my shoulders loosen and a wide smile forms.
    I can’t wait for tonight.
    That one sentence has me feeling light and totally forgetting the issues of earlier. This girl is changing everything.
    “I’m going to also need to place an order for delivery tomorrow morning.” I’m doing this right. She deserves a prince. I pick out a bouquet of some purple flower that the florist suggests. I head to the cash register and am checking out when she asks for the name of the recipient.
    “Samantha,” I respond.
    “I’m going to need first and
