Jasmine stood waiting for me at my locker the next morning. My mood instantly sank from dark to sour. I quickly scanned the hall for Cal, but he was nowhere in sight.

“Luke!” She was all smiles.

“Hey,” I acknowledged, spinning through my combination. The sooner I got my books and away from her, the better.

She ran a hand slowly down my arm, practically groping my muscles as she went. “You mind?” I said brusquely. My lock fell open, and I pulled away from her and opened the door to my locker at the same time. She started going on about some party at her place, but I could only see my Calculus textbook and the binder that had my completed homework inside. Throwing them both inside my backpack, I quickly shut my locker back up.

“So, can you come?”

“No.” I started to walk away. She followed.

“No? Why not?” She made her pouty face. I think she had the mistaken idea it was cute.

“I’m busy.”

“Doing what?” She teased. “You spend every free moment you have with Cal. Do I need to invite him too?”

I stopped, stunned. Then, shaking my head, I briskly split off and made my way up the stairs to my class. I felt like punching something. Cal did not deserve this. But how do you tell your best friend the girl he loves is playing him? I cornered him just before lunch. “Can we talk?”

“Sure.” This was the Cal I knew. Instant concern. Ready to drop everything for me in a heartbeat. My brother.

Jasmine slithered up behind him and tucked her arm around his waist. His attention immediately fixated on her. “Hey, Bear. I’m having a little party Saturday night—you know, something quieter, a little more intimate. I figure that’s what everyone will be in the mood for after they recover from prom.” She winked at me from the safety behind his shoulder. “You can come too, if you want, Luke.”

I glared at her. “Like I said before, I’m busy.”

Cal missed the implication entirely. “You should come. It won’t be the same without you.”

“You really should,” she said, dragging her eyes over me, almost daring me to say something. “Think about it.” And pulling him by the hand, she led him away.

Who are you right now, Caleb?

“Don’t you just want to smack her?” Harper said, joining me at the railing as we watched them disappear down the stairs.

I stiffened.

“I spent three hours at her house yesterday. You were pretty much the only thing she wanted to talk about.” She crossed her arms and made a face. “I seriously thought about trying to record her, but she had my phone. She wanted to video me walking so I’d know what I was doing wrong. Spoiler alert—it was a lot.”

“How do you walk wrong?”

Harper’s green eyes lit up with approval. “Right?! Thank you! But apparently, these people expect you to ‘show off your feminine charms.’ Like it isn’t enough that I’m already in a dress. Trust me—unless your name is Gigi Hadid—nobody really walks like that.
