I look away from her sinister face to an angry Kevin. A snore from the corner pulls everyone from this intense moment.
“What did you do to her?”
“Roofie,” I admit.
“Nice. That’s how I got her in bed the first time. She’s such a lightweight.”
I stand still, not wanting to agree. Kevin stalks toward me from behind Jessica and catches me off guard with a right hook. I’ll let him have that one. I deserve that.
“You fucked my sister?”
CHAPTER 18
TERMS
Adam
“You fucked my sister?”
The words seem to hit harder than his closed fist. It wasn’t supposed to get to this point. I knew I had messed up the moment I kissed her in front of the food truck. She wore me down, but I, again, did not put up much of a fight. That sweet coffee breath was the beginning of my undoing.
“Conversation for another time,” I try to deflect.
“No, motherfucker! Answer me now!” He pushes my shoulder.
Jessica is snickering, and it is the most awful sound. She is loving the confrontation in front of her.
“Later.” I try to refocus him. “We have a job to do.”
“Now!” he demands.
I huff, realizing he won’t let this go. So badly, I want to calm him down and tell him that everything is going to be okay. That I will always be there for Reese. That would make me a liar, which, ironically, I am.
“I did.” I stand for a moment, waiting.
“Multiple times and—” Jessica intrudes at the worst possible moment. A punch to her face from Kevin cuts her words short. Her head bobbles back and forth. Glad she can take a punch.
“Good shot,” I say. My face receives another blow. Stumbling back onto my ass, I sit watching him. “I didn’t mean for it to go that way. I tried to fight my feelings.”
“Feelings? What feelings?” Jessica laughs.
“My god! Does your mouth ever tire of the shit you talk about?” Kevin asks.
I stand, waiting for her answer. That is a fair question. She rolls her eyes and huffs. Guess she is full of shit.
“Listen, let’s make a deal?” she tries.
We both stare at her, confused. Does she think she is in control here?
“What do you got?” Kevin turns his attention to Jessica.
“Well…” she trails off.
“No, no toying around. I’m on edge to let this asshole end you.” He folds his arms across his chest.
She tries to sit up a bit more in her chair. She clearly believes him, and after that hit, I do as well.
“Now hold up a second!” I attempt to stop them.
