“Well, we haven’t really spoken and …” I sighed. “I went into town today and I happened to see her car outside Chicken Sisters.”
“Shit, man, why didn’t you bring me back some fried chicken?”
“I didn’t get anything to eat. I went inside because I saw her car there.”
“Okay, and?”
“And she was sitting with the Olivio brothers.”
“Oh, shit. Dominic and Tom?” He chuckled.
“It’s not funny.”
“What? They’re the biggest flirts in town. Was she on a date or something?”
“Exactly!” I exclaimed. “That’s exactly what I thought. I thought she was on a fucking date.”
“Oh, I take it she wasn’t on a date?”
“No, she wasn’t on a date. She said she was in some frickin’ business meeting.”
“Business meeting?” He sounded surprised. “What’d you mean business meeting?”
“That’s exactly my point. I had no idea she was going to meet them to talk about business. I don’t even know what she was talking about.”
“So she didn’t tell you?”
“No, she didn’t.”
“I thought you guys told each other everything?”
“We normally do, that’s what I mean. I fucking have dynamite lips. Ever since the kiss, she’s most probably gotten crazy and she’s probably been daydreaming about being with me and who knows what.”
“I don’t think your lips are that dynamite.”
“Trust me, they are. It’s a curse.”
Chat burst out laughing. “Oh, my God, Wyatt! And people say I’m obnoxious.”
“You are obnoxious.”
“Not as obnoxious as you. You kissed Sadie once, and you think she’s gone crazy because of your lips? Dude, I’ve seen your lips and I’ve seen you kissing other girls, and trust me, it didn’t look very dynamite or explosive to me.”
“That’s because you’ve never been a recipient of one of my kisses.”
He held up his hand. “And don’t you dare even try!”
“Of course, I’m not going to kiss you, you idiot.”
“You’d better not.” He laughed for what felt like a full minute, then finally calmed down. “Is this what’s got you so upset? Because you fucking kissed Sadie, and now you’re worried she’s totally into you, and that’s why she’s not speaking to you?”
“Yeah, I mean, I don’t understand what’s going on. Why can’t she just be normal about this? Why can’t we just be friends that have fun?”
“So you want to be friends with benefits with your best friend. And you really think that’s a good idea?”
“That’s not what I’m saying. Of course, I don’t want to be friends with benefits. I mean …” I groaned. “Look, I just don’t even know what I want. Why do things have to be so complicated?”
“Trust me, I know what you mean.” Chet suddenly sounded serious.
