“Oh my god,” I choked out. “You didnotjust say that.”

Chuckling softly, he moved to roll back under the car.

“Wait.“ Stopping him from disappearing under the car by pressing my foot to his stomach, I wheeled him back out, unwilling to let him win this particular round of banter. “So, you like the color yellow?”

“It recently became my favorite.”

“Is that so?”

“That’s so, Molloy.”

“My favorite color is yellow, too.”

“It’s a good color on you.”

“I look even better when I take it off.” Feeling mischievous, I purred, “You’re so sure of us being incompatible, but I wonder if that might change if I sat on your lap? Hm? Do you think we’d find common ground there, Joe?”

“Why don’t you take a seat, and we’ll find out.”

“Wh-what?” Thrown off kilter by his flirtatious attack, I frowned at him. “What are you doing?”

“What areyoudoing?”

“You’re flirting with me.”

“You’reflirting with me.”

“So?” I huffed. “I always flirt with you.”

He grinned. “Well, maybe I’ve decided to change tactics.”

“By flirting?”

“Well.” He shrugged. “Being an asshole doesn’t seem to be working in my favor, does it?”

“But you’re sogoodat being an asshole.”

“Come closer and I’ll show you how good I can be in other ways.”

“Okay, now you’re freaking me out,” I choked out, springing away from him. “Stop this right now and give me back my asshole.”

Laughing, Joey wheeled himself back under the car. “You lost that round, Molloy.”

“I didn’t lose,” I huffed. “You changed the rules.”

“Yeah, yeah,” he called out from under the car. “Go and buy your shoes, princess.”

MY COSTUME IS BETTER THAN HIS

OCTOBER 31ST 2001

JOEY

“One more street, Joe,”Ollie begged, hands clasped together, as he stared up at me with those big brown eyes that usually made me cave in and give him whatever he wanted.

Not tonight.

There was an underage disco happening at the GAA pavilion tonight to celebrate Halloween, and as soon I got these two fuckers home to bed, I had every intention of attending – and getting shitfaced.
