I’m avoiding The Thorns. Everything’s such a fucking mess. It’s been days since Jude kissed me in front of everyone, but I’m still not ready to deal with the fallout. It wouldn’t have been a problem, except I liked it. I liked what happened in the photography room, too. And even though I didn’t let things go too far in there, a part of me wanted to.

My eyes dart from side to side as I search the library for an empty corner. Just like I did yesterday. I can’t face Jude right now. Or Brennan. Or even Tyler, who I’d managed to give the brush off since my parents were too caught up in work to notice me sneaking rides to school with Macie. I just… I can’t face any of them right now. I’m just thankful Winter Break starts after today, so I can get the respite I so desperately need.

Two weeks where I don’t have to avoid the way Jude looks at me like he’d like nothing better than to make good on his promise to finish what we started in that abandoned classroom. Two blissful weeks where I don’t have to watch Brennan staring at me like he wants more from me than that quick fuck in his car. And two weeks of not avoiding Tyler when he’s so fucking charming sometimes that it hurts.

I promised myself I wouldn’t be the catalyst to their explosion. That I would do whatever I could to avoid ripping them apart. But it gets a little harder with every single day that passes. Because the three of them are always watching me. And I want them.

I duck behind a row of bookshelves, there’s a little one person table back here that I’ve realized no one ever seems to use. I pull the chair to the opposite side of it, wanting to face out so no one can sneak up on me. The last thing I need is one of the guys catching me off guard. I know I’m being overly paranoid, but I can’t risk being alone with any of them. I’m not confident I’d be able to keep my hands to myself. My resolve has been seriously weakening.

Studying in the library. Talked to Dr. Charles before school today. Skipping his class to cram for Psychology.

Macie sends a thumbs-up emoji in response. I set my phone aside and open my psych book, pulling my study guide out of my bag and lining it up beside the textbook. I’m not actually all that worried about the exam, but I pretended otherwise when I spoke to Dr. Charles. We took the final for his class on Monday, so we weren’t doing anything but watching a movie today. So, it wasn’t hard to convince him I could use a quiet study period.

I skim the study guide, barely paying attention to it, but trying, nonetheless. The bell rings signaling the end of lunch—yeah, I definitely avoided that. After a few minutes my phone buzzes. A text from Brennan.
