The sound of my phone buzzing makes me look down and see the name 'Andrew' flashing on the screen.
I pick up the phone and put it to my ear. "Brother." Andrew greets once I answer.
"Andrew. Why are you calling?" I ask as I take a sip of my coffee.
"Just wanted to see if you are still sucking those twins' tits on some island."
"That's really funny coming from you."
Andrew knows damn well that I'm not like that. Yea I hook up with women but not like that. That’s some messy shit that my brother would do.
For example, if Andrew was watching over Thalia then he would have slept with her when she insisted.
That's the opposite of what I did.
Thalia and I hung out a couple of times and she would push herself onto me, but I wasn't into that because I also know she would do it to make Alexander Russo jealous, so I called her out on her bullshit and stopped hanging out with her because she was just too messy for me.
"Hey, at least I didn't take time off to just have sex with whoever I want and do whatever I want."
"Everyone needs a break, Andrew."
Andrew is my little brother. We have the same dad but not the same mom. After my dad found out that Andrew was born, he took him in and killed his mother so that he could have Andrew all to himself.
Andrew and I get along, and we like the same things so it wasn't hard for us to become close.
"How is that new job working out for you?" Andrew asks and I immediately look towards the staircase where Jane ran.
"It's fine," I try to say calmly but it comes out rough.
"Yea it sure sounds fine. You seem tense Rowan. You need one of those whores from your vacation to rub your back?" Andrew teases and I clench the phone in my hand.
"Fuck off."
"I'm just kidding. What's wrong though?"
"This girl is making me want to break everything in her house."
"Oh, so you’re that kind of tense," Andrew hums.
"No. It's just- she is very frustrating. I don't know how to help her."
"Who is she?" Andrew asks even though he knows he isn't allowed to.
"You know not to ask Andrew and you know I wouldn't tell you so why bother?"
"Because I just had a feeling you wanted to rant about her."
"Screw you Andrew," I say before hanging up and putting my phone on the counter.
Ten
Jane
Fuck.
Fuck you.
Fucking world.
