“Yes. What the hell does it mean? Jasper told me I looked fit yesterday. I of course responded with ‘Thanks, I’ve been working out.’ And he just laughed at me like I was crazy.”

Faith laughed, causing her dimples to appear. “It means you're hot.”

“Oh. Okay. Well. Then of course Jasper thought I was nuts. He’s a hell of a DJ, by the way.”

Faith giggled. “And apparently that crush of his is the real deal. Sophie says he talks about you all the time.”

I wrinkled my nose. “Oh, I think he’s like that with all the girls. It has nothing to do with me, I promise you.”

“Jasper is shameless and a bit of a tramp. But he's lovely outside of all his ridiculous flirting.”

“I'll take your word for it.” Then as subtly as I could, I added, “So what do you know about Alexi and Nick? They seem nice enough. And as you put it, they’re both well fit.” Yeah, real smooth.

“I don’t know much about them. All I know is they’re part of the R&B set.”

I was going to have to play catch up on the British slang, otherwise I'd never be able to understand my friends. “R&B?”

“Well, depending on who you talk to, it’s either the rich and beautiful set or the rich and bratty set.”

I raised my eyebrows. I’d gotten the feel of wealth around him, but I didn’t know it was a thing. “Come to mention it, last night was kind of a big baller night. It was like something out of Sophia Ritchie’s diary or something.”

“Welcome to rolling with Sophie.” Faith laughed. “I don’t go out too much with her friends, but every time we do, a celebrity sighting is nearly guaranteed. There are no lines, the men are beautiful, and the access is insane. I like to keep things a little more grounded though.”

So, Faith wouldn’t be able to help me with the scoop. Not like I needed the inside track to know Alexi wasn’t interested in me really.

I shook my head and focused on my friend. “Enough about last night. How is Mr. Irishman doing?”

Faith’s smile widened. “I get to see Liam in a couple of weeks. So far, so good. We’re just starting this long-distance thing. In fact, this visit will be our test run to see if it works. Right now, we’re in the hazy long-distance-lust fog. You know when you have Skype sex all the time and you’re in love.”

I laughed. “No, I don’t know about that, but I imagine I’ll live every breathtaking moment with you… except for the Skype sex of course, because that would make for really awkward flatmate dinners later.”

“So what's on the agenda today?” Faith asked as she started to clear her dishes.
