Cheat With My Boyfriend Best Friend

They were close

“David!? It’s you!?” My bewilderment was plain as day.

“Olive,” David sighed, relieved. “I’m so happy it wasn’t anyone else. Ready to go take our picture?” He took my hand and gave me a gentle look.

I could only return his excited expression with an awkward smile.

I was not happy to see him.

If this was David, then where the hell was Aaron?

Oh my g*d! I couldn’t believe I bought the wrong man. I spent nearly $20,000, and it wasn’t even Aaron! Earlier, Aaron said he’d only pay for his share, so was I supposed to fork up the cash now?

“Are you really Number Eight?” I swallowed. This couldn’t be happening. I glanced at Jane, still beside me, and she looked as shocked as I was.

“I’m yours for the next twenty-four hours.” David leaned down to kiss my hand, and my body shivered in response. I gave Jane a confused look. Had David really been single for as long as she’d said? He seemed a lot more comfortable with

showing affection than I would’ve guessed.

Jane’s initial surprise quickly faded. She smiled and said, “This works out wonderfully! I don’t believe the two of you got to finish your conversation earlier, so this gives you both the

chance to talk more about your research.”

“Did you set all of this up so I’d finally settle down?” David narrowed his eyes, suspicious.

“Of course not! Given Olive’s… situation,” she said playfully. “I’d hope you keep your relationship strictly academic, David.””

“Oh?” He tilted his head toward me. “You have a boyfriend?”

Jane turned to look at me as well.
