A Steaming Pile of Busted
Trey
I rip my lips off Chris and drop her to her feet. Spinning around, I block her with my body as Kade and Riley slam the door shut behind them.
Thank God it’s them and not someone else.
They both swallow in unison and then share this awkward look—flaming red cheeks, eyes about to pop out of their sockets. Riley’s eyebrows rise, but then his eyes narrow into slits as he tries to work out what he’s just seen.
Kade carefully lowers his hockey gear to the floor and mutters, “Whatever floats your boat, I guess.”
I wince and droop my head.
What the hell am I supposed to do here? They think they’ve caught me making out with Chris.
Not Chris the girl, but Chris the wimpy guy next door.
She’ll want me to go with that story, to take the fall and beg them not to say anything.
What she doesn’t know is that I trust these guys more than anyone. We look out for each other, which means they’d take my secrets to the grave.
And because of that reason, there’s only one thing I can say to them.
“I know this looks like one thing, but it’s not what it seems.”
I step towards them, not daring to look back at Chris.
“Truth is…” I flick my thumb over my shoulder. “She’s a girl.”
Chris helps me out by giving us a high-pitched gasp. “He’s…uh, he’s lying! He just doesn’t want to admit he’s sexually confused right now!”
I huff and throw a glare over my shoulder. “I’m not lying.”
Her eyes bulge with warning and she grits out, “Yes, you are.”
Turning to face her, I try to calm her with a reassuring smile. “It’s okay. If you can trust me, you can trust them.”
Her face distorts as if she’s trying to gain control of her fear. It’s so obvious and I feel bad for just dumping her in this, but she’s got to know it’s okay.
I’d trust Kade and Riley with my life…and she can too.
“They’re not going to tell anyone and now you can relax around us. Be yourself.” I shrug.
She scoffs. “You make it sound so easy! Do you have any idea how serious this is?”
“No, because you won’t tell me anything!”
“I’ve told you enough! If I’m busted, I’m dead. What more is there to say?” Her voice pitches. “And I don’t care how buddy-buddy you are. How can I possibly trust you when you’re telling everyone just like that?” She snaps her fingers.
I lean forward, my voice rising of its own free will. “They saw us kissing! What was I supposed to do?”
“Tell them you’re gay!” she practically screams.
I cringe and close my eyes, wondering how far her voice has traveled down the hallway. Pulling in a calming breath, I look at the infuriating, sexy little thing in front of me and grit out, “Could you say that any louder, please?”
She tips her head back and screeches.
Kade snickers behind me. I spin around to glare at him but that only makes him laugh harder.
