I can’t wait to see your new car. Maybe you could take me for a drive… I mean, I’d love to ride you too.

“Julian, some girl named Katie wants you to take her for a ride in your new car and she said she’d love to ride you too.”

He choked on his drink, and Christian’s eyes widened. I could see the expression on his face through the rearview mirror.

“Are you okay?” I patted Julian’s back to help.

He cleared his throat and coughed a few more times, snatching the phone out of my hands.

“Hey! I wasn’t done.”

“Yeah, you were up to no good.”

“I was not! She texted you as I unlocked your phone.”

He texted her back, and I glared.

What did he reply?

“Are you going to give her a piggyback ride?”

He chuckled, and Christian smacked him on the chest. I was the only girl he ever gave piggyback rides to, and I couldn’t help but feel jealous.

“This conversation is over, Autumn. Hey, dickwad!” Christian smacked him on the chest again, harder that time. “Don’t let her use your phone anymore.”

“I didn’t know she’d be texting me.”

“Since when did you start talking to her?”

He grinned. “Talking isn’t exactly what I’d say we were doing.”

Before I could ask if she was his girlfriend, my brother pulled into a gas station and got out of his truck to fill his tank.

“Kid.”

“What?”

Julian laughed. “What do you mean what?” He rustled up my hair with his fingers, making me giggle. “What’s your problem?”

“Nothing.”

“Then why aren’t you looking at me?”

I shrugged. “I don’t know.”

“You mad?”

“No. Why would I be mad?”

“Do you want my phone?”

“No. Katie might text again, and Christian will be mad that I’m reading messages I don’t understand.”

“Autumn.”

I deeply sighed, hating when he used that low tone with me.

“I’m not giving her any piggyback rides, okay? Those are only reserved for you.”
