I looked up at him. He was talking to Jacob instead of Sophie now.
“What?” Jacob touched the front of his neck.
“Do you have paint on your neck?” Axel asked.
There was indeed a small amount of white mime paint left there from last night.
“Oh. Yeah. That.” Jacob tried to get it off but he was going to need some soap or something.
I reached over to try and help him, but it was no use. His mime paint was really on there.
“Were you painting?” Axel asked.
“They were actually painting together,” Sophie quickly said. “Right, guys?”
“Um...yes,” I said.
Axel stared at me. “When?”
“Last night,” Sophie said.
Screw me.I’d just told him I wasn’t hanging out with Jacob last night.
“Interesting,” Axel said.
Stop saying interesting!
“What were you two paintinglast night?” he asked me.
Gah.He’d caught me in a lie, but for some reason he wasn’t calling me out.
“They were painting each other,” Sophie interjected. “In a painting class they attended together last night.”
I was having a really hard time keeping track of all these lies.
“Like...portraits?” he asked.
“Nudes,” Sophie said.
My eyes grew round.
“Sounds fun,” RJ said. “I want so many more details about that. Is it a weekly class? Where is it located? Can I be a model next time?”
I elbowed him in his side and he laughed.
“Does sound fun,” Axel said.
“And tonight Jacob is taking her to a sexy X-rated film,” Sophie said.
Good Lord.
“Have fun at the movies,” Axel said.
“Oh, shoot,” Sophie said. “I forgot that we were supposed to flesh out our concepts for our coding class. Didn’t your dad say he wanted that by Friday?”
I slowly nodded. He had said that.
“So you’ll probably have to ditch the movie to hang out with Axel tonight.”
