Chapter 11

Kyle was pissed.

Scratch that. He was furious.

He'd been looking forward to some downtime without the kids, and now he had to deal with Sarah. Wasn’t it enough that the pool area was already crowded as it was? Fucking hell, he wished they could all disappear—not counting Logan. Obviously.

Lunch had been cool—same with the couple hours that had followed. Kyle felt closer to Logan lately, and he didn’t want the day to get ruined by being reminded of the issue with Sarah. That could wait. Kyle wasn’t ready to talk, anyway. At least not like a civilized person.

Fuck this. He was gonna enjoy this day with his buddies. He'd just pretend Sarah wasn’t here, and if she approached and wanted to talk, he could tell her there was plenty of time for that later.

Following Logan's lead, Kyle headed into the water, and he stayed submerged until his lungs burned. He broke through the surface a few feet away from Declan and Patrick.

"I don’t know. Quinn might be on to something," Patrick was saying, keeping his voice down.

"About what?" Kyle scrubbed his hands over his face and then pushed back his hair.

Declan hummed, eyeing Quinn—who was speaking quietly to Logan in the middle of the pool—and then turned to Kyle with a little smirk. "Seems there's a new bet going on." Kyle raised a brow, and Declan chuckled and shook his head. "It's entirely possible we're too bored around here if we end up taking bets based on gossip, but Quinn believes Sarah's after the guy she shot down two years ago."

Kyle grimaced. "Quinn's out of his mind. And yeah, definitely bored. Last time I checked, we weren't high school girls." Irritated with the mention of Sarah, Kyle swam over to Logan and Quinn. "Hey." He poked Logan's side. "Maybe it's time to do what you talked about during lunch."

Kyle needed the distraction.

Logan grinned and slid his gaze to Quinn. "What a coincidence. I was just tellin' Quinn about it."

Quinn didn’t look happy. "I'm the fucking champ."

"Then you won't mind taking on Ward here." Kyle draped an arm lazily around Logan's shoulders. "But if it makes you feel any better, my money's on you, Quinn."

"What the fuck?" Logan's eyes snapped to Kyle.

Kyle stifled his amusement and shrugged. "I've seen how fast Quinn is. I haven't seen you."

It didn’t matter how fast Logan was, regardless. Kyle had a plan, and Logan's confidence had made most of the guys think he was better than Quinn. Kyle would simply use the odds to work in his favor. Declan had succeeded once upon a time. Now it was Kyle's turn.

"Fine," Quinn grumbled. "Let's get this over with." He swam away and told everyone he was gonna race Logan.

Of course, the other guys were quick to gamble.

Only Declan and Kyle put down money on Quinn.

"I'm insulted, Shaw." Logan shook his head. "I figured since you've had your cock up my ass, I'd at least get your vote."

Kyle's eyes went large, and he glanced around to make sure no one had heard that.
