“No,” I say.
“No?”
“I want to talk about you.”
“What about me?”
I close the textbook.
I stare at Willow.
As she stares back, she blinks a few times. “Look, Jax, I don’t know what you’re thinking right now… but this stuff is important. This is just the business class. We still have other classes to get through.”
“Then I guess I’ll just fail and get kicked off campus.”
“Yeah, thanks. And I’ll get blamed for it? Just what I fucking need!”
Willow jumps up and covers her mouth.
She turns and runs away.
I grab for her but she’s gone.
Right into her bedroom.
The door slams shut.
And I’m sure she’s locked it.
I take a deep breath and slowly stand up.
This is a good time for me to just leave, you know?
But Willow… there’s something there between us.
She’s like a little sister to me for some reason.
I walk to her bedroom and turn the knob.
“Unlock the door, Willow,” I say. “I’m not leaving until we talk. You’re not going to hide from me. You’re not going to win this.”
“You won’t understand!”
“Give me a chance…”
There’s silence.
Then I hear the lock twist.
I turn the knob and open the door.
“So are you fucking Mila regularly now?” Willow asks.
My jaw tightens.
That’s what this pissy attitude is about? Why does it matter? Are you jealous that I’m fucking Mila and not you?
“Just say it, Jax. Go ahead. Tell the truth.”
