Chapter Twelve

“I thought you guys were going clubbing?” Wilburn asked, a little uncertainly.

Siobhan shrugged. “We were, but you’re not feeling well. You complaining?”

“Little weirded out,” Wilburn said, eyeing the VapoRub. “Look, really, I’m just after a quiet evening. I’ll probably play videogames online with my cousin or something. There’s no need to, uh, take care of me.”

“Might as well have some soup,” Buddy called from the kitchen. “This stuff’s good and you didn’t have to pay for it.”

That last part was true. Wilburn may have only been a college student a short time but he’d already learned that no food was as good as free food. And Buddy’s soup did smell really good.

“Where is everyone?” Wilburn asked, glancing around for his roommates.

“Oh, they’re out at the clubs,” Siobhan said. “We sent them ahead.”

“Oh, I see. You’re planning to catch up later then?” he asked.

“Not really,” she replied, apparently without a care at all.

Something wasn’t right here. Wilburn’s eyes cut back and forth between the siblings. “Siobhan, where’d you say you were from?”

“San Francisco,” she said brightly. “Dual major in theater arts and nutrition.”

Wilburn wasn’t sure which was weirder, the way the siblings were taking over his apartment, or the fact that being a nutrition major was apparently a real thing.

“So, why are you making your brother cook then?”

Siobhan grinned at him. “You want me to cook for you, Wil?”

Wil had never had an expression that salacious thrown at him before. He met her gaze and held it. “I’m missing something. What’s going on?”

“Not sure what you mean, Wil,” Buddy said. “But the soup’s ready if you’re hungry. Are you feeling up to eating? I went ahead and put the hospital on speed dial just in case whatever you’re feeling is some kind of relapse.”

Wilburn could have smacked himself in the forehead. Here he was getting all weirded out because Buddy and his sister were being nice to him and they had a more than perfectly good reason. They weren’t even far off in guessing that the reason he was out of sorts had something to do with his recent stay in the hospital. He didn’t think a ‘relapse’ was in order, but there was no way he could legitimately explain away growing enough muscle to make an Olympic athlete jealous over the course of a few unconscious hours.

Buddy was just straight up the kind of guy who went the extra mile to look after his friends. Thinking back, Wilburn remembered their first encounter—Buddy thinking he was protecting Wilburn’s roommates from some asshole imposter. He’d loaned Wilburn the keys to his apartment without a second’s hesitation right after that so he could rest.

“Buddy, you’re a good man,” Wilburn said.

“What about me?” said Siobhan, arching up off the arm of the couch so that her breasts were prominently displayed. “Am I a good girl?” She smirked. “Good woman?”

Buddy rolled his eyes, sparing Wilburn the need to answer. “Whatever, Sis. Save it for the clubs. Get your soup while it’s hot. What game
