Why'd you leave me here with him?

OMG he HUMS. He's a hummer! Red alert!

Even though it's the middle of the school week, she's stuck working a couple hours before class since we're not there. I wouldn't be surprised if she texts me every morning to complain until we return.

Mallory

Oh and now he's whistling. I'm in hell.

I chuckle because I know how much she hates that.

Mallory

Can I kill him, please?

I'll even clean up the blood.

Shaking my head, I type out my reply that she’s gonna hate.

Wilder

Suck it up, buttercup. If I have to work with him ALL goddamn day, you can manage a few hours.

Mallory

I didn't sign up for this! I was forced against my will!

I roll my eyes at her dramatics.

Wilder

Join the club.

When I hear Delilah laugh, I glance up and stare at her.

"Doin' okay?" Tripp nudges my arm.

"Uh...yeah. Fine," I reply, keeping my gaze locked on her.

"Really?"

"Mm-hmm. Why?" I try reading her lips but I can't tell what she's staying.

"Because by that drool on your chin, I'd think you’re in love..." he taunts, smacking my jaw.

I push him away, finally breaking my trance. "We haven't talked much lately."

"Well, go up and say somethin'."

"It's not that easy."

Tripp shifts toward me, inching closer. "Don't tell me after all these years dancin' around each other, you fucked her and then screwed it up..."

"No." I shift my gaze again. "She wanted to, but I shot her down."

Tripp furrows his brow, the corner of his lips tilting up in a mocking grin. "Youshotherdown? Ain't no way."

"Believe it or not, I haven't had sex in over a year. Part of my therapy and gettin' my head on straight was to stay celibate."
