Madison and Rory gasped.

All the guys at the table rolled. Jamie and Ryan were the first to quiet when they became the subject of intense glares.

“Now, baby,” Ryan tried to cajole. “Ilikehandling you on the daily.”

“Ryan Steven Walsh, I never asked you tohandleme.”

“You sure?” His eyes became heated, and her cheeks turned bright pink.

“Stop that,” she admonished.

Win snickered and forked up a huge bite of eggs, jamming it into his mouth. “Fill me in,” he told me, smacking my arm as he chewed.

I sighed. “I told her I was gay, and she argued that I wasn’t.”

Win paused chewing. “Excuse me?”

I nodded and lowered my voice to repeat her words. “How do you know you’re gay if you’ve never been with a girl?”

Kruger made a rude sound. “How come women never hit on me like this?”

Jamie whistled. “I mean, we all knew she had it bad, but, bro.”

“You’re sure you made it clear?” Rory asked, brow furrowed.

“I literally told her I wanted to be upfront so I didn’t lead her on.”

“So have you?” Jamie asked around an excessively large bite of waffle. Dude ate like a goat.

“Have I what?”

“Tried it with a girl?”

Madison elbowed him, and he choked a little. “Jamie Michael Owens, what kind of question is that?”

“A curious one,” he said, going back to eating. “Just keeping it real. Can’t a guy wonder?”

One of the reasons I liked Jamie so much was that he just said whatever he wanted. Gay jokes, inappropriate comments. It didn’t bother me because, as I told him before, I’d rather us joke and be real than tiptoe around the fact I like men. Besides, his intentions were never bad. Moronic at times but never mean.

“You ever tried with a dude?” I asked, thinking maybe I’d make my point. It didn’t work with Veronica, so I had no idea why I thought it would work with Jamie.

Jamie sighed dramatically. “Ryan wouldn’t have me. Crushed my heart.”

Ryan laughed. “Fuck off.”

Jamie chuckled, then looked at me. “No. No desire.”

“That’s how I feel,” I said.

“You should have asked her that,” Ryan mused.

“I did,” I admitted. “Said she tried it once and didn’t like it.”

Kruger spit out the coffee he was sipping. “You got hit on by a girl who’s willing to have a threesome?”

“Pretty sure that’s not what I just said,” I deadpanned.

“You guys are entertaining as shit,” Win mused, shoveling in more eggs.
