I heard Gene let out a sigh of relief. “Thanks, man.”

“No problem. Where the fuck is Ethan?” He snapped, looking through all the faces.

Gene shrugged. “He, uh, rescued Vivi from Jackson and then disappeared.”

Oh no. If she’s drunk and alone with Ethan, who knows what’ll happen?

“Awesome.” Henry threw his hands up as he snarled and turned around, locking eyes with me.

Shit.

Turning on my heel, I jogged away and went back to hide in the garden.

He came around from the opposite side, running into me. “Where have you been?” His fingers dug into my arms, holding me in place.

“What do you mean?” I struggled against him. “Where have I been?”

“I haven’t seen you since…” He let go of me and I took a step back.

“Oh, you missed me?” I mocked him and gave a one-finger salute. “Get fucked, asshat.”

“Miranda, wait.” He reached for my hand. “Please?”

Nope.

Pulling my hand away, I turned and walked away.

He ran after me, grabbing my arm and jerking me around to look at him. “Stop.”

I shook my shoulder, trying to knock his hand off me. “Why? So you can feed me more crap?”

“I broke up with Victoria.”

I lifted my lip in a scowl. “Awww, do you want a Bozo button?”

“Look, about what happ…”

“Shh.” I smiled and opened my arms. “Come here.”

His face beamed as he stepped into my arms. I clutched his forearms and brought my knee up, smashing his balls. He gasped, and I saw tears roll down his cheek as he fell to the ground.

“I’m not yours or anyone else’s toy or Plan B.” I turned away so he wouldn’t see the stupid tear that fell down my cheek and walked towards the massive garage Ethan had.

Pulling out my phone, I messaged Tara that I went home, then went into the garage and found Ethan’s bike and rode that home.

Henry

The music was fire; the energy was insane, and I was trashed. I didn’t know what time it was when I stumbled back inside and sat down on the bench in the foyer.

Ethan was wet as he came down the stairs.

“Hey man!” I hopped up and walked over beside him. “Where ya been?”

“I needed a shower.” He walked to the kitchen and mixed a drink.

I noticed his busted lip. “Dude.” I grabbed his arm, making him look up at me. “Jackson stormed out of here after getting in a fight.”

He shrugged. “And?”
