“Oh. Wow. Right now?” He shrugged. “Okay.” He undid the buckle of his belt.
“What are you doing?!” I hissed.
“You just asked me to whip it out.”
“I did not!”
“I literally said, if you want to see what I’m packing just ask. And you responded withRJ, please.”
“You did kind of just ask to see his dick,” Liam said.
“I was talking about the cameras!” What was wrong with the two of them? “Do not whip out your small baby penis.”
RJ laughed. “Well, you’re about to find out how very wrong you are about that.” He unzipped his backpack and pulled out a sleek black box, no bigger than a box to hold a ring. “As soon as we get these cameras set up in the locker room, you’ll see what I’m packing.”
“I thought you said those cameras were in the Hunter Tech vault.”
“They’re supposed to be.” He shrugged.
He’d already stolen them?That little thief.Thinking about thieves reminded me of my kiss thief. I swallowed hard. Again,I would have been very concerned about RJ being the kiss thief. But Sophie was right...there was just no way. Yeah, definitely no way.
I reached out for the box, but RJ pulled it back. “RJ, please. I’ll do whatever you want. But I need those cameras.”
“Interesting. So...you’ll owe me one?”
“Sure. Whatever.” It was terrible to owe RJ favors, but what choice did I have?
He smiled. “Great. So we agree that you owe me a favor.”
“I already agreed.”
“Fantastic. What a deal. I was just pulling them back because I was going to offer to set them up for you. So you don’t have to sneak in. But now I get a favor too. This is a great day.”
I couldn’t believe I’d willingly just given him a favor. He was going to make me do something so weird with that. But I didn’t even care right now. “Thank you. You’ll get the cameras set up today?”
“Mhm. I’ll do it right now.”
“Thanks, RJ.” It was totally worth the favor now that I knew he was putting up the cameras too. I’d been really worried about having to sneak into the guy’s locker room.
“Scarlett,” Liam said. “If someone is threatening you...you know you can tell me, right?”
I nodded.
But he still looked concerned. “We’ll figure out who this asshole is, don’t worry.”
My kiss thief wasn’t an asshole. At least, I hoped he wasn’t. But...great. All that mattered was that we were about to unmask him. “Thanks, guys. I really appreciate your help with this.”
“We better hurry before the locker room gets too busy,” Liam said.
RJ nodded. “I’ll text you with the login later, baby doll.”
The two of them hurried off.
I breathed a sigh of relief. There was no way we wouldn’t catch the mascot red handed. And then I’d be able to skip the kissing booth...Shit.I glanced at the clock on the wall. It was almost time for Sophie’s date thing. I hurried back toward Mr. Halifax’s room so I wouldn’t miss it.
But I only made it a few steps before someone grabbed my wrist.
Before I could turn around, I was pulled backwards into a dark closet. The door slammed closed and the smell of cleaning supplies invaded my nose.
