“It’s no problem.” Rex says putting his arm around my waist. “Jenny’s been dying to meet Piper. Now’s as good a time as any.”

“So,” Cooper asks hopping onto the counter. “Jenny, is she hot?”

26

Rex

Me: I need a favor

Jenny: This could be fun

Me: Come to prom

Jenny: Oh darling I thought you’d never ask

Jenny: lol

Me: I’m serious. I need a wingman

Jenny: Aren’t those supposed to be dudes

Me: I’ll give you a no limits shopping spree while you’re here

Jenny: Count me in! When is it?

Me: May first

Jenny: Same day as ours

Me: Shit. Never mind then. I’ll figure something else out

Jenny: Trust me I’d rather be at your prom than mine

Me: Everything ok?

Jenny: Yup. Just the usual poor person in a school full of rich snobs drama

Me: I’m sorry :/

Jenny: It’s whatever

Me: I’ll text you your flight info later.

Jenny: KK. Loves ya!

Me: Loves you more

Jenny: Love you to infinity and beyond

Me: Lol alright. You win

Me: This time

I recline the seat of my Range Rover and drop my phone onto the center console. Piper’s got ten more minutes before her shift ends. I only hope she’s coming with me tonight. I don’t know where we stand and it kills me. I want her. The Good. The Bad. The ugly.

The door opens and I sit up. Cooper turns, locking the shop behind him. They walk down the steps together, laughing like the past few weeks never happened. Piper stops when she notices my car. My stomach twists unsure if I should get out or not. She gives Cooper a quick hug and the guy looks like he could reach the moon. Piper’s hugs will do that, send you soaring sky high. I get them all the time, but I still remember the first time we touched. It was electric.

She opens the door and gets in. “Hey.”
