“No,” Seth says, stopping him with a glare.

Corey backs off, hands raised. “All right. All right. Message received. Off-limits. No touchy.”

He walks off into the hallway and wanders into Devin’s room.

“Go to the what?” I ask Seth.

“It doesn’t matter,” he says. “You’re not going.”

I raise a brow. “Says who?”

“Me.”

“You’re not the boss of me,” I point out.

“No, but I am your brother, and I don’t want you to go, so there.”

I turn to Drew sitting at his desk across the room. “Go to the what?” I ask him instead.

“Greek Masquerade Ball,” he answers.

Seth turns up his hands, annoyed and betrayed.

“What?” Drew asks. “Why would I care what she does?”

“The Greeks have a masquerade ball?” I ask, but only to annoy Seth some more.

“Yes,” Seth answers, exhaling hard through his nose. “It’s the biggest event of the fall semester, I have a lot planned for that night, and I don’t want you there to witness any of it.”

“Oh, I see…”

“So, you’re not going,” he repeats.

“Well, I’m not Greek, so I don’t see how I could.”

“You can go if you’re invited by someone in the Greek system,” Drew says.

Seth twitches his hands up again. “Dude, why?”

Drew smirks. “Because it’s fun.”

“Ahh…” I smile wider. “So, that’s how it is.”

Seth glares at me from his chair. “Heidi…”

“All I have to do to ruin your fun is find a strapping, young frat boy to play with for a night.” I squint into the hallway. “I wonder how hard that would be…”

“Promise me you won’t go.”

“Relax,” I say. “I won’t go. It sounds lame anyway.”

“Yes. It’s lame. Very, very lame. So, stay away from it.”

I show my hands. “I will.”

“Thank you.” He glances into the hallway as someone passes by the open door. “Hold on.” He shuffles to his feet. “That guy owes me money. Yo, Boone!”

I chuckle as he bolts out of the room and into the hallway to chase Devin down.
