When we were alone, Ashton continued, “I mean it, Luna. You’ve had a crush on the guy since we were kids. And he hasn’t made a move. I don’t know what his deal is but he better do something before it’s too late.”

I wasn’t sure if I should be pissed at Ashton’s honesty or agree with him. I sighed, pulling the label off the bottle.

“I heard he’s going on a date,” I murmured.

“What?” Ashton’s head whipped around. “Where did you hear that?”

“I overheard people talking about it.” I shrugged.

“I think you should talk to Zach about that before you start believing what everyone else is saying. Whatever you’re thinking, Luna, it’s not true.” Ashton stood from the couch just as Aiden came toward us. He greeted his brother, then both of them headed over to where Zach stood with a few other guys.

Could Ashton be right? Was there no date at all?

“I think he’s checking you out,” Gigi said, rejoining me on the couch.

“What?” My cheeks burned. “He’s not.” But Zach was staring our way.

“Well let’s find out.” Gigi stood from the couch and held out her hand.

I took it, letting her pull me to my feet.

“Do you trust me?” she asked, her gaze landing on another group of guys that I had seen before at previous parties.

Brody Davies was included in the bunch. Being the mayor’s son, I hadn’t seen him in a while. He caught my gaze, giving me a little wave.

I waved back.

He ran a hand through his short brown hair, turning back to the guys he was standing with.

“I’m surprised he’s here,” I told Gigi.

“Who?” She followed my line of sight. “Oh yeah. Brody needed a break from whatever it was that his father was trying to get him to do. Anyway.” She tugged me along. “Do you trust me?”

“That’s the second time you asked me that,” I said, following beside her. “Of course, I trust you. But what are you—”

Gigi pulled me to the group of guys I had only met in passing because of her.

“What are you doing?” I tried tugging my arm from her grasp but her hold only tightened.

“Hey guys,” Gigi said sweetly, stepping up beside a tall blond.

“Hey, Angelica,” he crooned, licking his lips.

“This is my girl, Luna.” She tugged me beside her, ignoring him eye-fucking her. “She’s shy.”

I snorted.

Gigi winked at me.

I had no idea what kind of game she was playing but I caught movement out of the corner of my eye.

Zach left the twins, coming toward me, his hands clenched at his sides. While he stalked toward us, he stared me down.

My heart jumped to my throat.

Oh. Crap.
