I squeezed my eyes shut. Oh, God. Of all people, my brother had to find me like this.

I slowly lifted my head, turning to look at Trent. Seth tried to hold me down, but there was no use fighting this. I knew it was inevitable, and knowing my brother, he’d already found out I was skipping.

Trent glared at me, clenching his jaw. “Get dressed and get the fuck out of that truck, Bailey!” he barked.

I flinched. “You know him?” Seth asked me as my brother stormed away.

I scrambled off Seth’s lap, nodding my head, wincing at the blood on the inside of my thighs. But I didn’t have time to clean myself up.

My brother had just fucking caught me in the aftermath of sex, not to mention, he’d caught me skipping school.

“That’s my brother,” I whispered. I winced as I looked over at Seth. “My very overprotective brother, at that.”

Seth cursed and dropped his head back on the seat.

I was dressed in record time and scrambled out of the truck, wincing at the angry expression on Trent’s face. “Damn it, Bailey!” he shouted. “Have you lost your fucking mind?!” he yelled at me.

“I’m sorry,” I squeaked. I wasn’t used to being on the receiving end of Trent’s anger like this. I mean, sure, we fought a lot, but this? This was something else entirely. I’d actually disappointed him, and it was killing me.

He gripped my arm and yanked me towards his car. “Mom and Dad are going to fucking kill you,” he warned me. I opened my mouth to plead with him not to tell them, but he shot me a look that quickly had me snapping my mouth shut. “Don’t even. This is out of fucking character for you, Bailey.” He looked over his shoulder at Seth. “And you. Follow us because she’s not getting shit on by her fucking self.”

A girl got out of the passenger seat of Trent’s car, staring at Seth with wide, incredulous eyes. “Seth?” the girl asked in disbelief, walking toward him.

Seth looked at her with an almost bored expression on his face. “What, Melanie?” he growled.

“Bailey?” she asked him. “You just can’t leave any girl alone, can you?” she demanded. “Let’s go. Trent’s right. She’s not facing this shit storm by herself. For once, you’re going to face the consequences of your actions, too.”
