This is going to hurt my twin sister.

How many people can I hurt in one morning?

I look at my mirror image and link our pinkies. “I was offered a principal position with the Royal Ballet in London.”

A million emotions fly over Everly’s face before she finally manages one single word. “When?”

“In two days... if I go.” I ignore the chaos erupting around me and whisper, “I’m so sorry, sissy.”

Tears flood her eyes, and she pulls me in for a hug. “You’re going.”

GRACE

Everly

Text when you land, okay?

Kenzie

I hope you found a hot Brit with a sexy accent on the plane and joined the mile-high club. I always wanted to join that club.

Brynlee

You were in every other club in school. I’m surprised there are any left you didn’t make your bitch, Kenz.

Lindy

Overachiever much?

Kenzie

Says the gold medalist . . .

Lindy

Point taken.

Kenzie

Mile-high club. Make it your mission, Gracie.

Everly

Text us so many pictures it feels like we’re there with you, sissy.

Kenzie

Again – focus on the hot British men, Grace. I wouldn’t complain if you sent tons of pics of hot men.

Lindy

What the hell, Kenz?

Kenzie

I’m in my final semester of med school. I haven’t had a date since tenth grade. AND my vibrator died a slow, sad, painful death before I was done with it last night. Do you think Amazon offers same day deliveries?
