Sunday happened and we all went out for lunch before Zeke was taking off.
My roommates, all of them, and Gavin joined in.
Once we sat down, I glanced at the empty seat by Zeke. He draped a hand over it. “I’m taking off from here. I told Kit if she wants a ride, she needs to get her ass here.”
She came in a few minutes later, her bag in hand with a few other Kappa girls.
She skimmed the restaurant until she saw us. Her face tightened. She said something. The three other girls all looked our way, but there was no more room at our table except for the one seat. I watched as the hostess approached. They gestured to us, and before long, they were being seated at the closest booth to us, which was in the other section of the place.
Kit and one of the other girls came over. Her friend went to the far end of the table, waving at Wade, and Kit slipped into the empty seat by Zeke. “Hey.”
He was watching her. “Hey.”
The two stared at each other, like they were mentally having a conversation before Kit looked to me. “We didn’t talk all weekend.”
“You threatened me.”
“I told you I broke up with my boyfriend, and he cheated on me.”
Again. “You threatened me.”
“Far be it from me getting involved in chick drama, but–” Zeke stopped talking as Kit and I both looked at him. “What?”
Kit said, “You get involved all the time.”
I added, “You start it half the time.”
He grinned. “Both good points, but I want to point out that you took away Mara’s chance to be a friend by first threatening her. I know your man’s been cheating on you for a while, but I also know that you’ve been aware of it for a long time too. Got a feeling Mara knew too.”
Kit’s mouth opened as her eyes snapped my way. “Is that true? Did you know?”
I shrugged. “You caught him, like, four times this summer. Also, I always thought you were in an open relationship until Thursday night.”
Her face got red, and her eyes bulged out. She reached for a piece of bread and began shredding it to pieces. “Would’ve been nice if I knew this was the community outlook on my relationship.”
My stomach shifted. “Why was this latest cheating the final straw? Was it the final straw?”
“He fucked Ria and Penny. At the same time.”
I sucked in my breath. They were both from our high school friend group.
“Damn.” That was from Zeke.
Kit shot him a look. “Sorry, Zeke.”
He gave a disjointed nod, which made sense. He and Penny weren’t in a relationship, but the two slept together a lot. “No. I mean, nah. I never laid claim to her and vice versa.”
Kit let go of her bread, putting it on her plate. It was half torn up. “He fucked them both, for an entire weekend. They were there when I called him. Apparently, he put me on speaker so they could hear the conversation.”
That was the last straw. Not the sex. He let them hear what I knew Kit would’ve never shared with them. Our whole friend group was messed up. Sex was nothing to us, but real emotional sharing, that was precious.
“I’m sorry, Kit.”
Her eyes filled up with tears, but she brushed her hand over her face. “It’s whatever. Done with by now. About time too.”
I pulled my phone out.
“What are you doing?”
I hit send, then turned my phone around to show Kit and Zeke.
Me: Brian, a heads-up. Ria fucked Kit’s boyfriend with Penny all weekend long. Kit told me. Thought you’d like to know.
“That’s very messy of you.” Kit grinned.
My phone buzzed back as I shrugged.
Brian: Thanks for the heads-up, but I knew. Got a steady girlfriend now. Not Ria.
I chuckled, showing Kit and Zeke the phone again.
“Right on. Good for my boy.”
I asked Kit, “How’d you find out?”
“Saw that they were at his college for the weekend and got suspicious. You’re the only one that doesn’t keep in touch. Everyone else is hooked in on a group chat and they tell us where they’re partying. Also, I’m not counting Blaise because he hated everyone except you two in school. But anyways, I called around, finally got his roommate on the phone and threatened him. His girlfriend is a Kappa, and the roommate spilled the beans. Told me everything. They made a video.”
“Wait. What?” I jerked upright.
“His roommate sent it to me.” Her shoulders slumped even farther down. “I watched it. He was fucking Penny when I called, and he put me on speaker as he finished. You can see Ria cracking up in the background, but he stuffs a pillow over her mouth.”
“Is there sound?”
She shook her head. “One good thing about the whole thing, but no. No sound, just video.”
