Her smirk changes into a scheming smile. “You know what.”

I shake my head, already knowing what she is going to assume. “Whatever.”

I walk past her to go back to the table at the end of the diner. I need to talk to Hayden about this project. The faster we get it done the better.

As I get closer to their table I see Max talking to Hayden and Kayden’s notebook is closed on the table as he listens to Max while drinking his coffee.

“And next thing I know, the bitch starts using teeth as my dick goes down her throat.” I hear Max say as I sit next to Kayden. “She even started laughing when I told her to stop, no shit. Fucking cuckoo in the head.”

“That’s your fault for not listening to her ex when he told you about her. Why do you think he broke up with her?” Kayden says, which makes Max roll his eyes.

“I didn’t think he was serious,” Max exclaims, making me chuckle lightly.

Kayden shakes his head lightly before taking a sip of his coffee. I move my eyes to Hayden who is looking everywhere but at me.

“Hayden,” I say, trying to make him look at me.

“Tell her to leave,” Hayden says, looking at Kayden.

“Tell her yourself,” Kayden says in a bored tone.

“Why have you been avoiding me?”

This time Hayden looks at me. “Avoiding you would mean I care and quite frankly, I don’t.”

“Then why haven’t you left your apartment? Your sister told me you have been stuck up there or going to the club.”

Hayden smirks, making butterflies swarm in my stomach. “You’ve been asking about me, princess?’

I roll my eyes. “No.”

Hayden’s jaw ticks. “Sure.”

“Hayden, you know I need your help with this project. Just help me.”

He furrows his eyebrows and leans forward. “Why would I help you? What do I get out of it?”

“Getting a good grade?”

By the look on Hayden’s face I can tell he doesn’t give a single fuck. “I don’t care.”

“Then how about being a decent person and helping me?”

“I can help you out by doing a lot of other things.”

Max starts laughing. “Jesus, Hayden. I called dibs first. She’s mine.”

I shake my head and look at Kayden. “Wanna help me out?”

Kayden doesn’t look at me, instead he keeps his eyes on Hayden.

Hayden looks away from me and looks at Kayden. “Why would he help you?”

Kayden doesn’t answer him, he just keeps his eyes on Hayden, as if they are having a silent conversation that none of us can hear. Hayden’s gaze darkens and he looks at me before looking at Kayden.

“Are they about to kiss?” Max says and I can’t help but smile.

He definitely knows how to lighten the mood.
