“There were contingencies to that.”
“What contingencies?”
“We had a deal, Scarlett. I figured if you didn’t want me to kiss her you’d break up with the boyfriend by tonight.”
“Are you serious right now?”
“Yes. So have you broken up with him?”
“Screw you, Axel Stevens.”
“I’ll take that as a no. Have a fun night with my sister. See you in bed later.”
I wanted to hurl my phone out the window.
“Are you texting Ax?” Parker asked. She was no longer concentrating on her drawing. She was staring at me.
“Why would you think that?”
“Because you look upset.”
I sighed. Why was I so transparent to everyone but Axel? “Yes, I’m texting your brother.”
“What did he say?”
“That he’s busy hanging out with George.”
Parker scrunched up her nose. “Want to draw on the walls of his room to get him in trouble?”
I laughed.Maybe.My phone buzzed again.
“What did he say now?” she asked.
“Nothing, it’s just Soph.” She was asking if I wanted to go to that new club across town. I was about to text her back when she started to call.
“Can I talk to her?” Parker asked.
“Sure.” I handed her my phone.
“Sophie, can you come over? We’re going to draw on Axel’s walls because he’s kissing George.”
I laughed.
“No, George is a girl,” Parker said. “But she isn’t pretty. Ax showed me a picture.”
I wished I could hear what Sophie was saying.
“No, Scarlett’s not babysitting me. We’re just hanging out.”
I smiled at Parker.
“Yes, it’s a girls’ night,” Parker said.
I stifled another laugh. I had a feeling Sophie was quoting those Russian single girl rules she’d found right now. I’m pretty sure lots of them were about girls’ nights.
“We can draw on his wallsanddo that I think,” Parker said.
Another pause.
