I can’t believe it. Teegan thinks I’m gay.

Not that it would be a big deal if I were. I have lots of gay friends. But I’m not. And let’s just say it’s a bit of a ball-buster when the girl you’re into believes that you aren’t heterosexual.

All of this explains her hot and cold behavior.

I’m out of the studio and halfway down the block when I dial up Jagger.

“I feel oddly offended that I had to find out about you and Oscar on the morning show,” Jagger says when he picks up and then laughs.

Any guilt I had about calling him so early vanishes. “I should’ve called Vance.”

“And wake up the kids? Although Bianca’s not too happy right now. Ouch. Sorry, Brianna.”

I roll my eyes. “Can you fucking believe it?” I ask.

His winded breaths and the padding of his footsteps tells me he’s already on his treadmill getting in his cardio for the day.

“Yes, I can. You put yourself in stupid positions, man. You should have come out of the closet a long time ago.”

“Jag, fuck off.”

“What I meant was that you should’ve come out of the heterosexual closet a long time ago. You’ve always kept a closed lid on the subject, leaving a lot of people to wonder whether you were or weren’t. Once you stopped dating altogether because of that crazy bitch, Yvette, you sealed your fate.”

He has a point. I’ve always remained so hell-bent on it being no one’s business—because really, why should it matter to anyone?—I’ve allowed people to make their own assumptions. After a bad experience with a stalker/wanna be actress named Yvette I decided to lay low for a while. Have you ever seen the movie Wedding Crashers? Remember the red head Vince Vaughn bangs? Case in point.

“But Teegan? I thought we were on the same wavelength. That we were keeping our distance out of professional respect. But now I think it was because she thought I was gay.” I walk into a coffee shop to grab some caffeine to keep my brain sharp, so I can work all of this out in my head.

“Are you sure? Maybe she doesn’t feel anything for you.” He presses some buttons on his treadmill and the sound of his steps slow.

“I kissed her in the greenroom. She wants me.” I remember the small moan in the back of her throat when our tongues touched and the way she used her leg to press me in closer to her. There’s no way I mistook any of that.

He laughs. “Then why the hell are you talking to me right now?”

I cover up the mic. “Tall black, please.” Then back to Jagger. “Because I’m pissed. I’m pissed she came to that conclusion. I’m pissed that she invited Oscar to come out. I’m pissed at Oscar for not saying no.”

“Well, the man loves fucking with you. Not in the literal sense, of course.”

I nod, although Jagger can’t see me. He’s right.

“Do you like her?” he asks, and I hear him open his fridge and then close it.
