Page 82 of Railing the Billionaire

I tucked my laptop back in my bag and sent a group text to the WTW crew.

Me: Is it possible that Gabriel is actually a good person?

Morgan: Duh

Juno: He seems lovely

Chester: ¯\_(?)_/¯

If he was reallythat altruistic, what was wrong with me that I hadn't recognized that? Why did I only see the worst in him?

Morgan: Did you make it safely back to the city last night? You didn’t text

Me: Sorry, I couldn’t. We’re stuck here. Avalanche

Chester: I heard about that on the news

Me: Safe though, promise!

Juno: Where are you?

Morgan: He took her to Alpine Aurora

Juno: ?!?

Juno: Tell me you’re taking all the pictures!

Me: …

Juno: Take. More. Pictures.

Me: Will do

Morgan: Try to have fun, and not assault the sexy billionaire who totally has the hots for you

Me: I’ll try not to assault him

Juno: ?!?!?!?!

Morgan: Maybe he could teach you how to ski

Me: He’s supposed to once he gets out of the shower

Juno: You know when he’s showering? Are the walls really thin…or are the two of you…

Me: No

Juno: No to which part

Me: GTG <3

I shovedmy phone into my pocket and ignored the dings as I put on my snow gear. No way was I going into the details of the one bed with everyone right now. Or possibly ever? Maybe I’d talk it all out with Morgan when I got back.

When Gabriel returned and got himself ready, I was revved up and ready to go. He was wearing a pair of khakis and a baby blue polo that didnotsuit him at all. If the mismatch to his personality wasn’t enough of a dead giveaway that they weren’t his from home, the little logo for the lodge made it crystal clear. I debated harassing him about it, but I decided to hold off for now.

We got our gear and stepped into the skis out in the snow.

My feet immediately felt heavy and awkward.
