Chapter 6

Jett

Something is definitely wrong. I can’t put my finger on it, and there’s a chance I might just be going crazy, but something feels off. Like this isn’t supposed to be my life.

It’s dark, and the TV has been on a straight Netflix binge of some stupid show Emma likes but I can’t for the life of me figure out why. The characters are bitchy, and they’re not even that hot. The sole purpose of the show seems to be taking advantage of men every chance they get.

Maybe it’s because I haven’t been watching the show that my mind is wandering around, wondering why I feel so weird. Beside me, Emma clears her throat. When I ignore her, she does it again.

“Uh, hello?”

“What?” I say, looking over. She’s relaxed on the couch in my living room, her feet in my lap. I hate when she does this, but I’m not a jerk so I don’t ever make her move her stupid feet.

“It’s like really late,” Emma says, sitting up a little. She leans forward so her boobs are on display and then she does her classic pout face.

“You want to go home?” I ask.

She rolls her eyes. “It’s late,” she says, emphasizing the last word. “Your parents are already in bed.” She folds her arms across her chest. “So why haven’t we gone to your bedroom yet?”

“We’re not dating,” I say. Honestly, I can’t really remember what we are, but I’m pretty sure we’re not boyfriend and girlfriend. The look on her face tells me I’m right.

“No, Jett. We don’t date because that’s our agreement. But we do go up to your room at night.” She leans forward and runs a finger down my chest, leaning in so close I can smell her powdery perfume. “So why are you making me wait so long?”

“Maybe you should go home.”

She flinches. “But it’s almost midnight. I was going to give you your birthday present.”

I lift an eyebrow. “Do you really have a present?”

She grins and rubs her hand across my thigh. “It’s a present with my mouth,” she whispers.

I distinctly remember buying her a fifty-dollar lipstick from the mall for her birthday a few months ago. She demanded that I get her a present even though we’re just friends with benefits. My stomach tightens and although I’m a dude with needs, this just doesn’t feel right.

I sit up straighter. “You should go, Emma. I’ll walk you to your car.”
