I meant it. Even though I had no medical background, his explanations made it easy to follow and appreciate just how impressive modern medicine is. 

“What’s up with you? You look like you’ve been up to no good,” Lena teased, ignoring my praise and zoning in on my state. 

No surprise there–being a gynecologist gave her a sixth sense for this stuff. She didn’t just notice. something was off; she pretty much guessed why. 

I pouted. “Just a little worn out.” 

Lena’s eyes went wide. “You… You actually did it? With who?” 

The first part made sense, but those last two words were a bit much. 

I glanced–around, thankful no one was nearby. Biting my lip, I replied, “Who do you think?” 

Lena squinted at me for a moment. “Hayden?” 

I didn’t say anything, which was answer enough. Lena nodded slowly, then shook her head. “I can’t believe It. Jace was with you for ten years and never got there, but Hayden swoops in and seals the deal?” 

I was stunned into silence. 

“What happened? Did you make the first move?” Lena asked, clearly overestimating my boldness. 

I cleared my throat. “It was mutual.” 

Lena burst out laughing, obviously teasing me. 

I glared at her. “What’s so funny? It’s true! I didn’t force anything.” 

“That’s not the point. The point is, you managed to snag such a good–looking guy. You definitely came out on top,” Lena said, each word more shocking than the last. 

I smirked and shot back, “Dr. Lane, I always wondered why you haven’t shown interest in anyone or gotten involved with any guys all these years. Turns out you’ve been holding out for someone like Professor Neumann, thinking only that would be worth it?” 

Lena wasn’t shy about it at all. “Exactly. If you’re gonna do it, make it count–with someone you really like and who’s exceptional.” 

“He is exceptional. It’d be a shame to let it pass by. You should just tell him how you feel. Who knows? It might actually work out, I encouraged her. 

Lena pressed her lips together. “It’s impossible between us. If I confess, there are only two possible outcomes.” 

“What are they?” 

Lena hesitated. “One, we start a relationship and fall deeply in love. Two, I confess and lose him completely, not even as a friend.” 

I let out a small laugh. “That’s such an obvious statement. Isn’t it like that for any couple?”

She shook her head, her smile tinged with a bit of self–mockery. “For us, it would definitely be the latter. So I’d rather say nothing and still have him as a friend” 

Seeing her like this made me realize just how deep her feelings for Nate went. They ran so deep they could shape her future relationships and even her choice of a partner.
