She throws her arm out, signaling to her body. “Green isn’t my color. It washes me out. Therefore, I can’t be Robin.”

“Too bad. You’re my sidekick.”

She rolls her eyes. “First, you’re my sidekick. Second, here soon, I’ll be moving my way up to the love of your life.”

I cover my face to conceal a snort. “Swear to God, you and your craziness will be the death of me.”

“Craziness? You haven’t seen anything yet. Just wait until you get me in the bedroom.”

The glass in my hand slips through my fingers and shatters on the floor. The thought of having Cassidy, of kissing Cassidy, of sliding into her warmth, into a pussy that’d probably be the best I’ve ever had, sends my heart into overdrive.

I am so screwed with this woman.

No matter how much time has passed, a grim cloud will always be over my head when I visit the lake. What was once an enjoyable hangout for me is now nothing but a pitiful reminder of who I lost.

“Don’t worry about hiding,” Lola says, walking into the cabin with Silas trailing her. “The surprise is ruined. There will be no shocking gasps from Archer when he walks in.”

Grace sighs, her hand covering her mouth. “What?”

“We parked down the street for this,” Finn adds. “And it’s fucking chilly outside.”

Silas scoffs, “Dumbass. Did you honestly think Archer would hang out in the car, blindfolded, for hours? A hundo he maybe lasted ten minutes before he tore the damn thing off.”

Lola shakes her head in disapproval. “What a pain in the ass.”

Silas drapes his tattooed arm over her shoulders. “Don’t act like you wouldn’t do the same.”

“Wrong. I enjoy being blindfolded.” Tilting her head back, she peers up at Silas with a teasing smile. “I’d keep it on all night.”

“What am I going to do with you?” He drags her against his chest and wrinkles his hand through her midnight-black strands before she smacks his hand away and smooths down her hair.

Silas and Lola are best friends.

Or so they say.

Something I’ve observed about my brother’s circle is, people are in love with each other.

Archer and Georgia are obviously now dating.

Silas and Lola act like an old couple.

Finn acts as if he’s Grace’s bodyguard, her protector, and keeps a constant eye on her. While she stares at him with stars in her eyes.

Way more than friendship between them.

Briefly, I consider their viewpoint of Cassidy and me. They’ve made comments about us dating and being into each other.
