“I swear, everyone's getting action around here except me.”

I'm standing in my bra and underwear glaring at my little sister and trying not to scream.

“When the door to a room is closed, that usually suggests the person inside wants a little bit of privacy. Can I not change my clothes without an audience?” I pause and stare Lettie down, wondering when she made the transition from child to … to teenager. Gross. I hate teenagers. “And you do know that getting action doesn't mean kissing, not exactly. Most people use it to refer to sex.” Lettie wrinkles her nose and shrugs, like she hasn't just made a verbal faux pas. When she makes no move to leave the room, I grab a fresh pair of jeans and a black tank top before retreating into the bathroom. Hopefully, this is one closed door she can respect.

I dress as quickly as I can and run a comb through my hair, touch up my makeup, and brush my teeth again. I have to or I won't be able to forget the feeling of Noah's mouth on mine.

“Were Ty and Never just kissing when we walked in or something else?” I roll my eyes as I step out of the bathroom and wrangle my feet into a pair of slippers.

“I don't know, Lettie,” I say because I really don't. There's a distinct possibility that something else was exactly the item that was on the menu. “I didn't see anything.” I pick my dirty clothes up off the floor and shove them into the white wicker basket near the bedroom door. My little sister's eyes follow my every move, absorbing, cataloguing, copying. She's even changed out her pink leggings for some jeans, and has donned the Stallions T-shirt I got her for Christmas last year. Great. “Now why are you in here again?” I ask as I open the door and gesture for her to exit ahead of me.

“If I can't come to my older sister for advice,” she asks, “then who?” I roll my eyes and push at her back, forcing her down the stairs and into the living room. Ty and Never have disappeared along with their baby, leaving Jade and Lorri sitting on the sofa next to Noah. This, I can handle. Being with him in the context of family makes things a lot easier to deal with.

“You guys are here early,” I say to Jade, wondering if there's more to the story than just Lorri throwing a temper tantrum. My sister stares at me like I'm stupid and then rolls her eyes. If she was ornery before, she's gotten ten times worse since she turned twenty-one. Despite our close proximity in age, I can't say that Jade and I have ever really been friends. She puts up these walls that are so covered in spikes that just dealing with her for five minutes can make you bleed. I want to get inside them, figure out what makes her tick, but it just doesn't seem like a possibility right now.
