Chapter Fourteen

Izzy

* * *

When Mr. Time stops his car in front of my house, the rain washes out the windshield. He reaches into the backseat and tries to hand me a compact black umbrella.

The gesture makes me smile. “It’s all right, I’ll brave the storm.”

He smiles back at me before I jump out of the car, and I run into the house.

As soon as I manage to slam the front door behind me against the rainstorm, my smile dies on my lips.

I push open the door to Aiden’s room without knocking. He’s at his desk, and he jumps to his feet.

“Izzy,” he says, relief evident in his voice as he crosses toward me. His feet are bare, and his t-shirt clings to his broad shoulders above his nicely-fitted jeans. He looks adorable.

Which doesn’t stop me from poking a finger into his hard chest. “What the hell are you and Van up to?”

He stares at me, guilt flashing across his face before he offers me that cocky grin. “I can’t think of anything in particular, although we--”

“Mr. Time knows you’re leaving campus.” I cut him off. “And don’t lie to me.”

His lips part as if he’s debating what to say, but the no lying rule is throwing him for a loop. Lord, I love these boys, but there’s some work to be done...

I wave my hand. “Let’s bring Van into this conversation. Lord knows I’ve got questions for him too.”

“When did you get so bossy?”

“Since I fell in love with you,” I whip over my shoulder, refusing to be provoked, “and you need bossing.”

When I open the door to Van’s room, he isn’t there.

“What do you think the odds are that he’s somewhere he’s not supposed to be?” I demand.

“He wouldn’t leave campus without me,” he says. “He’s not stupid.”

I purse my lips at that thought.

He frowns. “Don’t be mad at him.”

“Why not?” I demand. “You two are sneaking around, not telling us what you’re doing, putting yourselves in danger--”

He cages me suddenly against the wall, bracing one hand to either side of my head. The two of us are close together, his lips intimately near mine as if he would kiss me if we weren’t fighting.

“Listen,” he says softly. “It’s not Van’s fault. He’s just trying to help me. Don’t be mad at him.”

Something about his tone catches me. God, these guys really love each other. My own tone is a little softer when I ask, “So I should be mad at you, then?”

“Yeah,” he says. “But maybe listen before you tear my head off?”

“I’m listening.” I frown at him. “And I’ve never torn your head off.”

Even when they hurt me, I’ve always forgiven them.

He doesn’t move away from me, and as mad as I am, I can’t help feeling something when his body is so close to mine. He smells good, like he always does.

“Iz,” he murmurs, something flashing through his eyes, “when you’re disappointed in me, it hurts worse than anyone else trying to tear me apart.”

He means it, and it makes my heart lurch.
