I grinned and said, “Now what do you know about that?”
Other than the horrible thing that had happened at the party, I didn’t think Penny had ever had sex. But things could be different, and of course I’d like to know. I wanted to protect her, make sure she was being safe. Like I was the one to dole out advice on that, but still, I wanted her to be okay.
She was about to answer, but we got to the counter and ordered our food.
When we got to the table, Ryker was heading our way with a drink tray.
He set it on the table and handed out our lattes. I watched Penny take hers, read the print out on the side, and raise her eyebrows at me.
“Well, what is it?” I asked.
She nodded and smiled appreciatively. “Option number two, he remembered.”
“What’s this about?” Ryker asked, looking from me to Penny and back again.
“You just passed her test,” I said.
“What did I win?” he asked with a lopsided smile.
“A bunch of sex, when we have the alone time,” I replied.
“Okay, I like your friend,” he replied and winked at Penny. She got those tell-tale red spots on her cheeks and looked down at the table.
“Okay, I guess I like you, too,” she said. And at that moment, I knew Ryker had won over my best friend, tats and metal and all.
