Avery opened her mouth, then fell silent. she had no idea what to say.
something flickered over Zay's expression--- irritation? confusion "Got it. I'II see you later." He retreated to the elevator, then turned back, his eyes traveling over her once more. " You look really beautiful tonight" he added. The elevator doors closed behind him with a click.
Avery sighed and stepped into the grand entryway of her apartment. Back before she was born,when the tower was under construction, her parents had bid aggressively to get this place ---- the entire top floor, with the only two-story foyer in the entire structure. they were proud of this entryway, but Avery
hated it: the hollow way it made her footsteps echo, the glinting mirrors on every surface. She couldn't look anywhere without
seeing her reflection.
she kick off her heels and walked barefoot toward her
room, leaving the shoes in the middle of the hallway. Someone
would pick them up tomorrow, one of the bots, or sarah, if she
actually showed up on time.
Poor Zay. Avery did like him: he was funny in a loud, fuzzy
way that made her laugh. But she just didn't feel anything when they kissed.
But the only boy Avery did want to kiss was the one she never, ever could.
she stepped into her room and heard the soft him as the room comp whizzed to life, scanning her vitals and adjusting the temperature accordingly. An ice water appeared on the table next to her
antique four-poster bed ---- probably because of the champagne still turning in her empty stomach, though Avery didn't bother asking.
After Atlas skipped town, she'd disabled the voice function on the comp.He'd been the one to set it on the British accent and name it
Jenkins. talking to Jenkins without him was too depressing.
