Teagan soaks up the news about as well as I think she will. Her eyes are tear-rimmed and blurry, and her jaw quivers even though she’s trying to remain calm.

“Teagan,” I plea, feeling my own tears come center stage. I hate seeing her get emotional over me.

Knowing Stella had a good idea, I couldn’t just ignore it. So as soon as Teagan got home from meeting up with her agent I broke the news and asked for her advice. And of course she wants what’s best for me, because she knows that going home will help me in ways that staying in LA can’t.

But it doesn’t make leaving her behind any easier, knowing she’s the only original thing in my life.

She sniffs. “I’m sorry, Ash. Ignore the bumbling idiot. I’ll just miss my best friend. Having you around makes me homesick.”

“So come with me!”

She frowns, which makes me mirror hers. “I can’t. My agent has auditions lined up for me around the premiere schedule. I think this is my moment.”

“Oh, Teagan!” I pull her into a hug, squeezing her in comfort. “I’m so happy for you. You’ve worked so hard to get here. You’re going places.”

We’re both crying now, holding each other and not wanting to let go.

“Whoa,” a new voice intervenes in our moment. We pull away, looking at an intrigued Dylan standing at the door, stroking his jaw and staring between us.

“Don’t stop on my account. Think I saw a porn that started this way once.”

Teagan laughs and brushes away tears. “I hate to disappoint you, but unless I’m paid to kiss a girl for the big screen, it ain’t happening.”

Dylan shoots us a crooked smile. “I’ve got a few hundreds I’d be willing to give to the cause.”

I scoff just as Teagan pinches my butt, causing me to yelp. “Although if we’re both old and single I’d go gay for that. Just saying.”

I smack her hand away. “Oh, please. Like you’re staying single your whole life. If either of us is destined to be the crazy cat lady it’s me.”

Dylan snorts. “You ladies don’t want cats, believe me. Plus, neither of you will be single long.”

Teagan crosses her arms. “Is that a promise?”

He grins. “Guys would be stupid not to snatch you up.” He may be telling us both that, but he’s only looking at me, and those eyes pierce through me.

“Question,” Teagan prompts, body shifting toward his. “Hypothetically, if you were to choose one of us lovely ladies to date, who would it be?”

My jaw drops. “Teagan!”

I want to tell her that there’s no way he’d pick either of us, because dating isn’t his thing.

“Sorry to disappoint you,” he says, and I think, here it is, “but it’d be Boots.”

My eyes snap to him. “Um. Excuse me?”

Teagan has a smug expression on her face, like she just won the lottery of all assumptions.

“You’re a spitfire, Ashton. You’re feisty. You don’t take people’s shit. And you’re beautiful. Any guy would be stupid not to acknowledge that if he’s got it.
