Shawn couldn’t shut up about how amazing the guys in Phoenixcry were, and yeah, they were cool and all. But it was Darcy who I’d spent most of the meal with, trying not to ask her a bunch of questions about her life and failing miserably. As we’d said our goodbyes, Darcy gave me a tight hug at the exit.

“That fun for you?” I asked Shawn as we filtered into the audience. Our backstage passes gave us front stage access. There was a mosh-pit behind us, but there was a barrier between the people crushed in there and us. I wasn’t sure I could have handled the press of people, and was super grateful that Shawn had managed to get us tickets that meant we wouldn’t be crammed in with hundreds of other people.

“It was fucking amazing,” he said, and then grinned at me. “I’m glad I shared it with you though. That made it better. What were you and their tour manager talking about? You guys seemed cozy.”

“She’s the coolest,” I breathed. “I mean, I could never do what she’s doing, because it seems like… a lot of babysitting and not a lot of sleep. I’ve never met anyone in my life who just seems to know that they’re in the right place for themselves, with the right people. You know? Everyone always seems to be trying to figure out how to fit into their own skin, but she seems to have it all together.” I was a little jealous of that. I still didn’t feel like I’d really found my place in the world.

“Yeah, she and Finn make a cute couple. If I was her, dating him, I’d feel pretty fucking confident too,” he said. I blinked.

“Wait, she’s dating Charlie, isn’t she? The guitarist?”

Shawn shook his head.

“Nah, she and Finn are an item. It’s super public. He’s the lead singer-”

“Well I know who he is now, but I swear she was…” I paused and then my cheeks warmed.

“What?”

“She was half-sitting in Charlie’s lap at dinner,” I said. “He had his hand on her lower back almost the whole time.” Shawn’s mouth quirked.

“Maybe…” He lifted an eyebrow at me.

“Don’t say it.”

He laughed.

“Okay, but maybe they’re a thing. Like, the three of them.”

“I said don’t saaaaaay iiiiiiit,” I hissed at him, but I was near to laughter too. “What is this, like, when you learn a new word, and suddenly you hear it all over the place? Now that I’m in… a thing with you and Buck, I’m just going to meet loads people like that? Who have more than one partner?”

“Maybe,” Shawn said, pulling me close as more fans filtered in around us, taking up the empty space. “It might convince you that it’s all fine and normal—that the two of us can love you better together than just one of us ever could,” he was speaking into the shell of my ear, and I shivered at the heat of his breath. The house lights above us fell dark, and the crowd screamed, cheers and whistles nearly deafened me.
