Me: Wow. Some would be offended by that.

Avery: But you’re not part of that some, which means you’re still coming?

Me: I wouldn’t miss it for anything.

Avery: …

Grinning at her little dots, I look up to find Markus playing Xbox.

“Hey, Sleeping Beauty,” he says after looking back at me and I glare. What the hell is up with all this Sleeping Beauty shit? “Did Jacey have a nice nappy?”

“Screw you,” I bark at him before standing and stretching. “What are you doing?”

“Nothing, just killing some aliens and shit. You? I thought you were out for the night.”

“I’m going to Avery’s gig.”

“Oh, cool.”

“Yeah, you should come.”

“Eh, maybe.” His eyes don’t leave the TV as I pass by him to go shower.

“Whatever, it’s gonna be fun.”

“Fun watching you geek out over some chick? Comical, yes. Fun, no.”

“I’m sure there will be smart chicks there you can hit on,” I suggest, waggling my brows at him

He makes a face, his eyes still trained on the TV. “I won’t have my right-hand man to make an ass of himself with some corny-ass lines.”

“This is true.”

“Plus, smart chicks don’t like me for some reason.”

“’Cause they are smart enough not to fall for your shit,” I laugh and he smirks.

“Maybe.”

Laughing, I head into the bathroom and I kind of hope he goes with me tonight. I don’t need him to go, but it would be nice to have someone with me. Maybe I won’t look like a total loser in the front row, cheering her on, if my boy is right beside me.

Probably not. We’ll probably look like two losers together.

After showering and shaving a little bit, I come out in a towel to find him still in front of the TV, playing. Heading to my dresser, I get a pair of jeans and a thin tee before getting dressed quickly since I took a little longer than I meant to in the shower. Combing my hair back, I decide I should really get a haircut. It’s falling in my face all the time now, which I guess is cool since man buns are all the rage, but I can imagine the shit I’d get from Markus, Jude, and Jayden. They would rip me apart. Shaking my head, I pull on a gray beanie to hold my hair back before looking over at Markus, who is still playing. Rolling my eyes, I reach for my phone and check the time. Then I open my texts.

Me: You on your way?

Avery: Did you beat me? Stalker.

Grinning, I chuckle as I write her back.

Me: No, weirdo, I’m about to leave now.

Avery: So…we’ll get there at the same time?

Me: Or I will beat you.
