> He then sends me a screenshot of Jace’s post and I’m confused. What the hell?

Me: Stalker much? Why does it matter?

Matty: Because that’s the dude I’m fighting first draft spot for. Are you fucking him?

Me: What the hell? That’s none of your business for one, and two, why do I care who you are going against in the draft?

Matty: Because I’m your brother. Stay away from him.

Me: Yeah, okay. Where do you get off?

Matty: I’m not kidding, Av. Stay away from him.

Me: Can you give me a reason?

Matty: Because he’s a dick like his brothers.

That confuses me. What the hell is he talking about? How does he even know Jace? I mean, I get that they are probably in the same division for tournaments and shit, but I doubt he knows him personally. I’ve never heard him mention his name, and Jace and I had no friends in common. Which means one thing: Jace must have beaten him at something.

Me: What, did he win a tourney over you?

Matty: Shut it, Av, and do what you’re told.

Me: Lol. Please. Get over yourself. If you were smart, you’d encourage me to be with him so it would be a distraction and you could win. Because God forbid, you don’t win everything.

Matty: You’re no distraction, Av. Just a constant pain in the ass.

Rolling my eyes, I shut the messaging app and shake my head. God, he is such a dick, and I really don’t understand why he is so mean to me. Isn’t he supposed to love me? What did I ever do to him? I almost want to ask him, but I feel like I know the answer.

Caleb.

Not wanting to open that can of worms, I go back to Facebook. I won’t do what Matty wants. I’ve always had to sacrifice my happiness for him, and I won’t do it any longer. This almost makes me want to pursue things with Jace more, just to spite him. But I wouldn’t do it for that reason. I’d do it because I want Jace, and I do. I just wish my brother wasn’t such a dickwad.

When my phone dings, I notice I have a message on Facebook. From Jace.

Jace Sinclair: You’re just gonna leave me hanging?

Grinning, I hit his name and go to the chat.

Avery Rose: Can’t confirm or deny your allegations.

Jace Sinclair: Oh you can, it’s just will you?

Avery Rose: No comment.

Jace Sinclair: I’ll shoot you some disgustingly corny lines until you do.

Avery Rose: Is that supposed to be a punishment?

Jace Sinclair: Baby, if you want punishment, I can give you some. Just ask.

Avery Rose: Ew, you just went full 50 Shades of Grey on me.

Jace Sinclair: I did, so bend over, let me spank ya a bit.

Avery Rose: I will cut you if you try.

Jace Sinclair: Challenge accepted.
