go ahead and let them in.” I turn on the faucet.
    “Sure.” She bounces to the front door. I love how happy she seems.
    My hands are washed, but she still isn’t back. What is taking so long? I walk towards the hall to find Jenelle and Evelyn talking.
    “Jenelle, what the hell are you doing here?” I ask with a pissed off tone.
    “You weren’t answering your phone or texts. Who is this?” She points to Evelyn.
    How can I phrase this so that she will get it the first time?
    Ah! That’s it!
    “This is ‘Love Lost’,” I answer back, crossing my arms. Evelyn gasps.
    “This is her?” Jenelle asks and sneers at Ev.
    “Yes,” I hiss.
    “So she heard you were getting famous and came crawling back?” Jenelle smirks, pointing her long finger at Ev.
    “Excuse me?” Ev says, taken aback by Jenelle’s catty tone. “Seriously? Tristan,” she looks at me, “is this what I’m going to have to deal with while I’m trying to get to know you again and get my memories back?”
    “I’m sorry,” is all I can manage to say.
    Evelyn unzips her sweater and peels it off, throwing it to the floor. She is standing there in just a sports bra.
    I have to gulp again. This time it was silent.
    Damn it, she is going to kill me.
    “What in the hell are you doing?” Jenelle screeches.
    “You see this tattoo right here?” Ev turns and points. Then she walks over to me, flipping my wrist over.
    “And you see his? Do you see how they match? It means infinity. Do you know what infinity means? It means I could be dead right now and this,” she places her hand over my heart, “would still belong to me.” She turns and smirks at Jenelle.
    “So you see, whatever you had, it’s not what we had, so off you go.” She pushes Jenelle out the door. Evelyn shuts the door behind Jenelle, turning around and leaning against it. Her chest is rising and falling with each breath.
    “I’m sorry, that was very rude of me. I can go apologize if you like, but she was being very nasty,” she sighs.
    “No, it’s fine. She started it, and the sixteen-year-old Evelyn I knew made an appearance. It was refreshing,” I croak, running my fingers through my hair.
    Please put your sweater back on Ev, please!
    Just when I think it can’t get any worse, the doorbell rings again.
    “I’ll get it. Who knows, maybe it’s someone else I can scare away,” she laughs, opening the door.
    “Hello. I have a—,” the delivery guy stumbles on his words.
    “Thank you, we’re famished.” Ev takes the food, walking away with the delivery guy’s eyes on her ass the entire time. I walk over and pay, giving him a warning.
    “Close your mouth buddy. She’s not on the market.” I whisper, but not as quietly as I assumed because Ev starts giggling.
    “I heard that.” She giggles even more.
    I slam the door in the dudes face after barely giving him a tip.
    “You enjoy walking around like that?” I smirk and internally groan.
    She looks down and shrugs. “What? I’m guessing you’ve seen me naked countless times, right?”
    I nod. “Yeah, but we were teenagers then. You woman, me man now.” I point for emphasis.
    She just laughs, shaking her head.
    “I’ve seen you naked more than countless times…I’m just saying.” I grab two drinks out of the fridge and walk over to the table where she is laying out the food.
    “This feels normal,” she says.
    I am stunned with her confession. I want her to feel normal, to know that she is normal. I want her comfortable here with me.
    “Does it?” I ask.
    “Yes. I haven’t felt normal for a long time. Thank you.” She smiles at me, and that smile forces me to close my eyes. I cannot look at her smile when she is barely wearing anything to cover up those gorgeous tits of hers. There is a fire building inside of me and I need her to extinguish it.
    “You’re welcome.” I force myself to say as I take a bite of teriyaki chicken on a skewer.
    “So when I was in the shower I was deciding on
