Chapter 19

Jake

“What are you doing back? You said you were staying over.” I had to play dumb even though I knew what happened.

“Let’s just say that women are a pain in my ass sometimes.”

“I thought Reese could do no wrong.”

“Yeah, well sometimes I hate how she’s not open-minded. All I did was bring up a three-way and she got all pissy. I had to get out of there.”

“You’ve already been with two women at once. Why do you need to do it again?”

“I need action. I want to keep things new. What better way than to explore something she’s never done before.”

“It’s not everyone’s cup of tea, Jax. Some girls get offended by it.”

“Yeah, well remind Miss Virgin Mary who she’s with. I get bored easily.”

In all honesty I couldn’t believe how he was acting. Normally he worshipped the ground she walked on. It was odd. “You knew how she was going in. I never understood why you went for her.”

“Don’t go there, not today.”

He plopped down on the bed and turned to face me. “She must have cut you off.”

“Fuck off. It sucks. What good is having a girlfriend that can’t keep up?”

“You’re brutal today. I don’t get it. You’re normally defending her every word. What gives?”

“What do you care?” His question was unexpected. “You hate the girl. You’d be the first to celebrate if we broke up.”

He was right about the high-five, but not because I hated her. “I thought she was your future.”

“She is, bro. She’s just real hard to deal with sometimes.”

“Maybe it’s you that’s hard to deal with. I know most of time I can’t stand your face.”

“Mirror mirror, we share a face, asshole. Unless you can’t stand yourself that makes no sense at all.”

Jax started throwing a football in the air. I could tell something was really bothering him, but didn’t want to talk about Reese anymore than I had to. “I’m thinking of inviting someone to the game. Do you think Reese would mind?”

“No. She’d be thrilled to not have to hang out with mom and dad the whole time.”

I had been kidding about bringing the nurse. She was actually engaged to be married, so it would have been convenient, but I didn’t want her future-husband getting the wrong idea. I needed someone to bring that knew I wasn’t into them. I needed someone to play the part. I couldn’t think of anyone.

For the next several hours I had to listen to my brother begging me to tell him who I was bringing with me. Thankfully I got a phone call that would answer my prayers.

“Christian. What’s up, cuz?”

Jax paused his video game. “What’s up sweet thang!”

I got up and walked out of the room to avoid him interrupting me. “I’m calling to let you know that I’m coming to the game. Do you think we could hang out with y’all if we book a room at the same hotel?”

“Yeah, sure. So you’re bringing Ethan with you?” I was so glad my cousin had that guy in her life.
