    “Go talk to her,” Beck interrupted his thoughts. “You guys had a good thing, right? Mutual breakup?”
    Jay took a drink of his beer and shrugged. “Nah, we weren’t exactly together.” Truth was, he got sick and tired of her damn family all in her business. It’s one thing trying to take out the daughter of a celebrity—that was complicated enough—but it was another issue when she was constantly worried about every stupid thing her family bitched about.
    But still, he preferred to date women that were above him in status. That way he wasn’t the one that had the most to lose…
    “I thought you guys went out a few times,” Beck asked, confused.
    “Slept together a few times,” Jay smirked.
    “That’s right, I’m mixing her up with the other Hollywood brunette, the st unt coordinator’s daughter. Nev?”
    “Her name was Nevvah. As in ‘you ain’t nevvah gonna get a piece.’ ”
    Beck started to laugh and shook his head. “So what happened to her? I thought you liked her?”
    “Did. She apparently didn’t like me enough.”
    Beck gave him a knowing look. “Uh huh,” he replied dryly. “So what dumbass thing did you say to her to purposely end it?”
    Jay barely shrugged but was peeved that Beck could see right through him. “I asked if her tits were fake,” he answered honestly.
    Beck shook his head with mock disappointment. “And I take it she was offended? Imagine that.”
    Jay only smiled and took a nother drink of his beer. “Well, a guy has to know these things. If she had asked me if I my giant cock was real I would’ve said, ‘Fuck yeah, let me show you.’”
    “ Classic,” he heard Jess mutter. But she smiled at him with somewhat of an embarrassed expression. Hell, she might’ve even blushed.
    “Go talk to Sophia,” Beck motioned with a nod, missing his girlfriend’s reaction. “Just say hi.”
    “Yeah, I might,” Jay sighed, standing up. He was getting bored anyways and needed something to pass the time. When he approached Sophia at the bar, she was speaking to another female sitting next to her. But the two men on either side of them stood the second Jay got too close, ready to rough him up if they had to.
    “McCallan?” the smaller of the two paused and asked with a partial smile.
    “Hey, Duke, how are you?” Jay gave him a nod. The three times Jay had taken Sophia out, he was practically dating Duke as well. Sophia’s parents hardly let her out of the house without a personal bodyguard. Never mind the fact that Jay could pound either one of these guys in a heartbeat.
    “Jay?” Sophia smiled when she turned o n her stool. But her other bodyguard wasn’t as friendly and he was in Jay’s face in two seconds flat. Jay wasn’t intimidated by the alpha move in the least bit but Sophia stepped between them before things could get ugly. “It’s okay, Johnny, he’s a friend,” she said.
    Johnny only grunted but stepped around Jay to stand guard for their interaction.
    Sophia looked cautious at first, but then she stepped closer to Jay and gave him an awkward hug. “It’s good to see you,” she told him. “You look…really good,” she added, the last two words practically a sigh.
    “So do you,” Jay offered. “You look better .”
    He could tell s he knew exactly what he meant when she glanced down at the floor. “Yeah, I’ve dulled down the appearance.”
    “Dulled down? Nah. I told you, you’re more beautiful without all of that.”
    Jay watched her dark brown eyes travel back to his face. She was pensive for a moment and then offered a grateful smile as she nodded to the bar. “Want to join us? You remember Alison, right?” she nodded to her friend.
    Now that a name was mentioned, yeah he remembered her stuck up bitch of a friend. Alison barely smirked at him and turned back to the bartender to order another drink.
    “Maybe another time,” he answered. “I’m here with friends. But it was good to see you, Phee,” he added, using
