Chapter Eight

“Why did I agree with this?”

“Because you are an idiot.”

“Thanks for reminding me, Luke,” Gage muttered.

“Stop whining. I am almost done,” I scolded. I grabbed his wrist so he would stop moving his hand. He was messing up my paint job.

“Dude, you really shouldn’t have agreed to this. I know my sister, and she will make sure you regret accepting doing whatever she wants,” Luke commented once more. He was leaning against my desk with his arms crossed over his chest, watching us. He couldn’t help but make comments every now and then.

“I’m realizing that.”

I grinned as I finished up what I was doing. Because Gage said he would do whatever I wanted to get back on my good side, I was kicking off one of his many punishments. Painting his nails. He said he didn’t like it, but I bet he secretly did. I was even trying my best to paint his nails perfectly.

I was nice enough to let him pick out a color, which of course ended up being black. I didn’t want his nails too plain, so I grabbed a sparkly red I had and got to work. Just to do one hand had taken me about fifteen minutes, and only because Gage kept moving and complaining. It would have taken me five minutes, but no, he had to be difficult.

“Carter, I don’t want to do this,” he said, complaining again.

“Too late. I only have one nail left to do.” I rolled my eyes at him.

“You are taking too long!”

“I wouldn’t have taken so long if you would stop moving!”

He grumbled under his breath as I finished the last design I decided to throw in at the last minute. Luke decided to talk to Gage as I finished up. I was so focused on what I was doing I didn’t even hear a word they said.

“Done!” I exclaimed and dropped the toothpick I had. “Now you can look.” I leaned back with a proud grin on my face. I decided that instead of just doing a plain black nail, I mixed it up.

All of Gage’s nails were done in black except two that I left plain. On top of the black I put a thin layer of sparkly red to make them pop a bit more. Then to make it more Gage-like, I added skulls on his ring fingers—the plain black ones. The skulls took the longest, but they looked pretty good, considering I’d drawn them by hand.

I sat there watching him look at his freshly painted nails. I held back a laugh at how weird it looked for him to have them painted, but of course he somehow made it look good.

“So, what do you think?” I asked after a minute of silence. Even Luke came over to see what I had done.

“Okay, even I have to admit they look really cool,” Luke said, staring down at Gage’s hands.

“Thought you would like a skull to make it more ‘manly’.”

“They look…pretty damn cool,” Gage finally said. He looked at me with a smile.
