Honestly impressive at this point.
ROWAN
“This is exactly why I don’t go to parties,” I muttered.
Tessa pointed at Mason. “No, this is why he goes to parties.”
“I didn’t even want to come,” Mason said.
“Bullshit,” Jace cut in, appearing again out of nowhere.
“You literally texted me asking if Rowan was going.”
Silence.
Complete fucking silence.
I turned slowly toward Mason.
Mason looked ready to kill Jace with his bare hands.
“You did what?” I asked.
Jace’s face lit up. “OH, this is incredible.”
“I’m going to murder you,” Mason told him calmly.
“He absolutely texted me first,” Jace continued. “I have screenshots.”
“Jace,” Mason warned.
“No no, keep going,” Tessa said immediately.
Luca was fully grinning now. “This is getting good.”
I looked back at Mason.
And suddenly he looked… caught.
Actually caught.
Which almost never happened.
“You asked if I was coming?” I said.
Mason dragged a hand down his face. “It sounds worse out loud.”
“That’s because it’s weird.”
“I was curious.”
“You hate parties.”
“I know.”
Jace looked emotional. “Guys, I think he has feelings.”
“Jace,” Mason said flatly.
