She giggles, looking at Reed. “Cause all the guys are wearing togas.”

“I’m not,” Hunter mumbles.

“This is the first I’m hearing about a toga party,” I tell her, then take a bite of my fries.

“It’s part of the Spirit Week parties.” Reed takes a drink from his bottle of water.

Ah, right.

The ‘week’ of parties.

“We’re not going,” Hunter tells them.

I turn to him, narrowing my eyes.

Wearen’t going?

“I might want to go,” I counter.

Hunter turns his green eyes toward me. “Well, you can’t. Not tonight.”

“Coco can do whatever she wants to do, Hunter.” Harper sits up straighter, narrowing her eyes at my bodyguard.

“We have something else to do tonight.” He nudges me with his elbow.

I nod. “Right. Of course. I forgot. Thething.”

“The thing?” Harper looks between us. “Please tell me the thing is you two going on a date. Because I can forgive you if you two havefinallystopped with the whole we’re only friends lie.”

Hunter slings his arm around me.

I glare at him.

He better not even try it.

He smirks. “She’s still breaking my heart and telling me no.”

I rub at my head, willing the Hunter induced headache to go away.

How am I going to survive high school with Hunter Duran as my bodyguard?

Harper pouts. “Ah, I really want you two to be happy. Like Reed and me.”

Reed beams at her. “Nobody can be as happy as us.”

It’s sweet but also kind of gross.

I groan. “It sucks watching somebody with a boyfriend when I’m single.”

Harper smirks. “He’s not my boyfriend.”

“Yet,” Reed says.

“Yet,” she agrees, her grin widening at him. She glances at me. “But you could have a boyfriend. You have two boys vying for your attention.”

I wouldn’t say Griffin is vying for my attention. In fact, he hasn’t texted me since earlier this morning. He will eventually get tired of chasing me. Honestly, it’s probably better that way anyway.

“I don’t want a boyfriend,” I mumble.
