“I always am.”

“Well…” My heart flutters. “Thank you. Goodbye.”

I end the call and shut off the sink faucet. Then I take a deep breath before returning to the suite.

Unfortunately, I’m sharing the space with Penelope against my will. All thanks to the fact that our coaches are currently fucking each other in what should bemyroom.

To make matters worse, Elaine has decided that she doesn’t trust me with her car anymore, so I can’t drive home to get away from this.

Penelope and I are giving each other the usual silent treatment, but I’m seconds away from jumping onto her bed and strangling her to death.

“I only have five more minutes, Hayden.” She groans. “Miss Satan has returned to the room, and she’s about to take over the television to watch those weird cartoons.”

I roll my eyes.

“Oh, wait, excuse me. They’re not cartoons. They’reanime.”

I let out a sigh and search for the remote. I’d intended to be nice tonight and watch the show with headphones, but I’ve changed my mind.

“Whatever.” She rolls over. “ I might have to hang up on you. You’re starting to sound like my brother these days.”

I freeze at the slight mention of Travis and wonder what he’s ever said about me to her. If he’s ever mentioned me or slipped up and mentioned ‘us.’

Ugh. This situation is so fucked up!

When I find the remote, my phone vibrates against the nightstand.

I ignore it and flip through the channels.

It buzzes again.

Then again and again.

“You want to answer that?” Penelope looks over at me. “It’s probably someone calling to say ‘Congratulations’ on your win over me today. Since I guarantee it won’t happen again, you should enjoy every bit of this rare moment.”

“You know what? You really are a straight up bitch.”

“And you’re an overrated cunt.”
