Vivian's POV
[Hey Vivian, are you free this weekend].
Reading Bryce's message, Vivian was tempted to say that not only was she busy that weekend, but that she would be busy on all other weekends as well. Instead, she pushed away that impulse and answered the man honestly.
[Yes, I am free. I do not have anything planned]
Sending the message, Vivian waited for his reply, nervously biting at her nails. All she had done was confirm that she had nothing better to do. That should not have left her feeling so anxious. But no matter what she did, she could not help but feel as though she had just given valuable intel to an enemy soldier.
When her phone buzzed with Bryce's reply, she almost did not read it, but she forced herself to. Knowing that if she ignored him the man would not only blow up her phone. But that he would also likely show up and try to come into her apartment( something that she had not allowed him to do yet).
