Three. Plus, she was always a secret glutton for the bad boy.

Noel

Absolutely not. No men, remember? Maybe I’ll follow Vallie’s lead and give women a try.

Josie

I don’t think it works like that.

Brexley

Would be nice if it did tho.

Just wake up one day and swing the opposite way. Guys are assholes.

Josie

The worst.

Brexley

Total pigs.

Vallie

Says the woman who landed a ten out of ten.

Brexley

Rhyett doesn’t count. I’m actually not convinced he’s human.

Noel

Judging from the sounds I hear at night, he’s plenty of man for you.

Brexley

*blushing emoji* eww. Come on, I bought you noise-canceling headphones.

Vallie

LMFAO

Josie

It’s about damn time. Brex is no longer the reigning champ of the dry spell.

What I was mostgrateful for in all of this was the way they all refused to treat me any differently after Eric. There had been a few initial days of concern, helping me navigate the legal process of getting a restraining order and pressing charges. Then, Vallie stepped up to take on the case when his slimy family bailed him out. Josie leapt into action, compiling a spreadsheet of different online therapists and who took what kind of insurance, insisting I’d need somewhere safe to talk through all the shit he put me through. But when the bruises faded, so did the kid gloves, mercifully pretending everything was business as usual. No walking on eggshells like my family. No pity in their eyes like our regulars at The Cracked Corset. I fucking loved them all the more for it.

Vallie

SO.

Tell us about the Rhodes. I need the dirty deets.
