"Nobody thinks that," Dean agrees.

Joel laughs. "Right back at you."

Dean nods. "It hurts, being this beautiful. Doesn't it?"

"It's our cross to bear." Joel's shrug is playful. Joyful. He's that kind of guy. One who always cracks a joke. "I'm sure we've got something coming up." He lowers his voice. "Now. Tell me... was it good dirty alley sex? Or fucking amazing dirty alley sex?"

My head fills with every detail. "It was perfect."

Kaylee sets her backpack on the passenger side floor as she slides into the car.

Her eyes light up as they meet mine. "You look like a tool with your sunglasses hanging in your t-shirt."

"This better?" I slide them on and offer her my best cocky smile.

"Much better." She pulls the door closed. Clicks her seatbelt. "First name dropping. Then designer sunglasses—"

"Em gave me these for my birthday."

"I remember."

"That doesn't buy me anything?"

"Not a thing." She smiles as she plays with her seatbelt. "Where are we going?"

"Somewhere you love."

"Which is..."

I put the car in park and pull onto the street. "A surprise."

Kaylee's laugh fills the car. "How long will it take to get there."

"Depends on traffic."

"Hmm. That's not the best hint."

"What if I tell you something else?"

"If it's something good."

"I got tickets to a show."

"Oh, tell me, Brendon the name dropper. Who are we going to see?"

"Hey, if you don't want backstage passes—"

Her eyes light up. "Really?"

"And I'm the celebrity obsessed one?"

She nods.

"Dangerous Noise."

"What?" Her eyes go wide. Her jaw drops. She stammers something incomprehensible.

Kay is actually speechless.
