Luis arched a brow. \u201cSo, the moment this dumblog shows up, my ranking in the house just tanks?\u201d<\/p>\n
He cut Puddy a dark look. \u201cBehave.\u201d<\/p>\n
Then, he turned and headed back to the kitchen to finish dinner.<\/p>\n
I rubbed Puddy\u2019s head. \u201cIgnore your dad. He\u2019s being a jerk.\u201d<\/p>\n
Puddy barked three times in total agreement.<\/p>\n
Even so, after that scolding, he became very good. He just pressed his head into my palm and rubbed against it, no more sneaking licks or trying to climb into my lap.<\/p>\n
That soft warmth against my hand made my eyes prickle.<\/p>\n
\u201cPuddy\u2026 thank you for remembering me.\u201d<\/p>\n
After dinner, Luis said he smelled like the kitchen and went to shower.<\/p>\n
I curled up on the sofa with Puddy\u2013one woman, one dog\u2013watching a movie.<\/p>\n
A minute later, his voice drifted from the stairs. What are you up to?\u201d<\/p>\n
I looked up\u2013and smacked face\u2013first into a very distracting view.<\/p>\n
Luis came down bare\u2013chested in gray lounge pants, toweling his short hair. Droplets slid over the clean lines of his chest and vanished into his waistband.<\/p>\n
My pulse spiked. I swallowed and whipped my gaze back to the screen, aiming for blas\u00e9. \u201cMovie.\u201d<\/p>\n
Luis stepped over to us and glanced at Puddy.<\/p>\n
He pointed at the cushion to the side.<\/p>\n
Puddy\u2019s cars drooped. He lifted one leg, set it down, scooted his butt over inch by reluctant inch to the indicated spot.<\/p>\n
Satisfied, Luis sat in the space he\u2019d carved out.<\/p>\n
I had to bite back a laugh. Petty, party of one.<\/p>\n

He\u2019d even refused Puddy a taste of dinner, insisting on kibble.<\/p>\n
In the end, I couldn\u2019t stand it and split my plate with the dog.<\/p>\n
I smoothed Puddy\u2019s fur. \u201cBest boy. Sit by your dad and watch with us.\u201d<\/p>\n
He lit up at my voice. He gave two soft barks while swishing his tail.<\/p>\n

I snagged the towel from Luis\u2019s hand and draped it over his head, rubbing through the damp mess of his hair.<\/p>\n
His voice dropped, warm and velvety. \u201cSo thoughtful?\u201d<\/p>\n
I paused\u2013pretty sure this was the first time I\u2019d ever dried his hair.<\/p>\n
\u201cConsider it payment for cooking tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n
I finished and started to lower the towel\u2013when he caught my wrist and gave the gentlest tug.<\/p>\n
My balance tipped; I landed across his solid thighs, and my nose bumped his chest, all cedar and heat.<\/p>\n
Luis tipped my chin up, looking lazy as sin. \u201cThat\u2019s it?\u201d<\/p>\n
His face kept closing the distance. My heartbeat kicked, breath going thin, and Puddy chose that exact moment to bark.<\/p>\n
I blinked back to myself, ears burning, and tried to slide off his lap.<\/p>\n
Luis\u2019s arm locked at my waist. Nope.<\/p>\n
\u201cWatch the movie here.\u201d<\/p>\n
We made it all the way to the end credits.<\/p>\n
Luis frowned at the TV. \u201cWhat is this? The heroine\u2019s wailing is giving me a headache.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a childhood\u2013sweethearts thing. He confesses after graduation, she turns him down, and he goes overseas. They meet again, can\u2019t help themselves, get back together\u2013then break up anyway.\u201d<\/p>\n
A noncommittal \u201cMm.\u201d<\/p>\n
I added, \u201cIt\u2019s Violet\u2019s new romance film. She asked me to watch it.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOh.\u201d<\/p>\n

Knowing she\u2019d grill me for notes later, I brightened. \u201cSo? What did you think?\u201d<\/p>\n

He glanced at the screen one more time and delivered the verdict without mercy. \u201cActing\u2019s middling. Plot\u2019s clich\u00e9d.\u201d<\/p>\n
I didn\u2019t say anything.<\/p>\n
Thanks for the brutal honesty.<\/p>\n
Something seemed to click for him. \u201cWhy do they break up again at the end?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe guy finds out the girl did love him back in high school. She made a deal with his parents. to push him to study abroad\u2013he feels like their whole beginning was a lie, can\u2019t take it, so they split.\u201d<\/p>\n
Luis nodded, then smiled sidelong. \u201cAnd you\u2013have you ever told a lie I should know about?\u201d<\/p>\n
