CHAPTER FOURTEEN

Bridget

I haven’t done this in forever, like, since I was a kid, but it’s obvious Kylie has never done it before at all. Kat either, but at least she’s small and compact, like a monkey, giving her an advantage in leverage that mostly negates her disadvantage in experience. Kylie, on the other hand, is tall. Normally that means she’s statuesque. But today, on the rock, she’s just gangly. Her toned legs aren’t especially strong; well-kept fingernails do nothing to help her grip little crevices. She doesn’t understand how important it is to hug the rock so she’s closer to standing than hanging on for dear life, and I’m sure as hell not telling her. Mostly, she’s an increasingly sweaty and grunting mess, and keeps staring daggers back at me as if this was all my idea.

This is the part, in a reality TV show, where the cameras would be capturing it all for the public’s amusement. Reality shows are one of my guilty pleasures, so I know how this usually works. Kylie’s struggles, handled by a deft crew for later broadcast, would be cute rather than humiliating. She’d laugh when the cameramen laughed, knowing the joke is more with her than at her expense, seeing as it’s unreasonable to expect tall beauties like her to have rock-climbing experience, and therefore it’s all in good fun. On TV, it would be obvious that the three of us are competitors, but we’d keep our claws retracted in public, extending them only in private. So right now, we’d all be laughing, pretending we’re friends. Kylie might even trip and fall into Trevor’s arms, coincidentally of course. And then she’d say something endearing about how she’s so clumsy. And the charming bachelor would fall for her just a little bit more.

But there isn’t any crew. It’s just me, Kylie, and Kat. Trevor is handling belay duty, the rope threaded through a complicated anchor at the short cliff’s top. I’ve done a respectable job of climbing with the rope as a just in case safety line. Remarkably, so has Kat. But Trevor’s had to hold a lot of Kylie’s weight. It’s satisfying on two levels. First of all, Kylie looks like a floundering asshole. And second, holding her up strains Trevor’s arms, and his arms are almost as nice as Daniel’s — with the significant advantage that the guy they’re attached to actually smiles, says please and thank you, treats us like people.

I’m not here to have sex with anyone, but I let myself think of what it would be like with Trevor. I’ll bet he’d be courteous. I’ll bet he’d ask permission. I’ll bet he wouldn’t shoot his load up my back and into my hair, necessitating a backward walk of shame out of a club with a stain on my dress.

I look at Daniel. He’s watching Kat ascend, making notes on a small pad. The notepad is like a thorn in Kylie’s side. Not only does she suck at rock climbing —
