"No. My name is Luna Anushka Locke," she says. "And it might mean Moonlight, but only people I like can call me that."
"Even then." Oliver makes ayou're deadmotion.
"Just kinda redundant, naming you Luna Moonlight, you know," Dare says.
"I think that counts." She jumps into a fighting stance.
"I can take you." But Dare still pulls his cell from his pocket and discards his muscle tank.
And he's actually… hot. Like really hot. It's hard to see past theomg look at me starting shit, playing dumbattitude, but without all those clothes covering his muscles—
Damn.
He looks good in those blue board shorts. A little more built than Patrick, with slightly darker skin, and a massive dragon curling around his torso.
He doesn't notice me staring. He moves to the pool and stands at the edge. "Let's go."
"You're ruining the fun." Luna shakes her head.
"Am I?" he asks.
She nods. Then, when he drops his guard, and looks at the water, she charges.
They both tumble into the pool with a splash and emerge with a laugh.
"That doesn't make you jealous?" Patrick asks Oliver.
"Dare? Are you kidding?" Oliver lets out a low, throaty laugh. "Yeah, right."
"'Cause he's into Val?" Patrick asks.
"'Cause he's Dare," Oliver says.
"He's conventionally attractive," I say.
Patrick laughs. The people on the lounger too.
Oliver shrugs, unbothered. "And my dad is hot. I'm not jealous Luna notices."
"Gross," the blonde, Daisy, says.
"His sister," Patrick explains.
"So her dad too?" I ask.
"He is hot though," Patrick says. "It's pretty much science."
"How can a subjective attraction be science?" Daisy asks.
Patrick looks to me.
"There are metrics of attraction consistent in different cultures," I say. "Facial symmetry, mostly. And waist/hip ratio for women."
"She's a scientist." Patrick beams with pride.
"Oh, so that's why she's with you? It's an experiment?" Oliver teases.
"An experiment to see how much fun we can have together, yeah," Patrick says.
