CHAPTER TWENTY

KENZ’S POV

The door shut behind her and I just stood there for a second my heart still going a mile a minute. Part of me had really hoped it was Dan coming back even if it was just to yell at me or call me out for everything. Anything would have been better than him walking away without another word like I did not matter at all.

Downstairs the kitchen light was on casting this soft yellow glow across the counters. Aunt was already there pouring two glasses of red wine. She slid o

    CHAPTER FIFTY SEVEN KENZ’S POVMy head was pounding.I let out a low groan and pulled the blanket over my face.“ I'm Never Drinking again.”A quiet laugh came from somewhere beside me.“You’ve said that before.”I frowned.Wait…Beside me?I slowly lowered the blanket and cracked one eye open.It was Fiona.She was sitting against the headboard with one of my hoodies thrown over last night’s dress, rubbing sleep from her eyes.For a second, I just stared at her.Then I looked around the room.“Oh.”Now I remembered.Jason had practically kicked us into one of the guest rooms after midnight because neither of us could walk in a straight line anymore.Apparently, we were “too drunk to be trusted around the stairs.”I laughed under my breath.“What?” Fiona asked.“I was just remembering what Jason said .”She covered her face with both hands.“Oh my God…”“Don’t remind me.”“ He literally called us children.”“To be fair…” I smiled.“We were acting like children.”She sighed dramatica

    CHAPTER FIFTY FIVEETHAN'S POVI watched Dan from across the backyard. Not constantly. Just enough to keep track of him. The party had gone back to normal after Truth or Dare. Music came through the speakers while people moved between the pool, the barbecue, and the area someone had cleared for dancing. Laughter mixed with the bass every few seconds the way it always did at these college parties.Nobody else seemed to notice anything. Why would they? To everyone else Dan turning down the dare just looked like a guy who did not want an awkward kiss. To me it felt different.My eyes stayed on him as he adjusted the crutch under his arm and sat back down in one of the patio chairs. A girl in a burgundy dress walked over a minute later and handed him a bottle of water before she sat next to him. She smiled. He smiled back. Small. Comfortable. Easy. Interesting.I took another sip from my drink without looking away. Kenz walked past them a few seconds later and said something that made the

    CHAPTER FIFTY FIVEDAN'S POVFor a few seconds nobody said anything. The bottle lay on the floor between us its neck pointing directly at Ethan. Jason looked from him to me then back again."...Well?" he prompted with an amused grin. "Don't keep the man waiting."A few people around the circle laughed."Yeah!" someone called."Give him something good."Ethan rested one arm over the back of his chair his expression unreadable. I met his gaze for a brief second before looking away. The rest of the circle didn't seem to notice anything unusual. To them this was just another round of Truth or Dare. Jason pointed dramatically at Ethan."The floor is yours."Ethan didn't answer immediately. Instead his eyes drifted around the circle almost as though he was looking for something or someone. Then they stopped on Toria. She was sitting beside Fiona absentmindedly twirling a strand of hair around her finger while listening to one of Fiona's cousins complain about losing at Beer Pong. She had no

    CHAPTER FIFTY FOUR DAN’S POV For a few long seconds Nobody said anything. “Ethan.” My voice came out calmer than I expected. He stared at me, his expression unreadable. “Dan.” “You’ve got to be kidding me,” he muttered. I let out a dry laugh. “I was about to say the same thing.” The silence that followed was uncomfortable enough to make even Toria glance between us. Kenz frowned. “…You guys know each other?” Ethan looked away from me first. “We played against each other in high school.” I nodded once. “A few times.” “Oh.” Kenz blinked. “So that’s how you know each other.” “Yeah.” Nobody spoke after that. It wasn’t hostile. It wasn’t friendly either. Just… Awkward. Thankfully, we didn’t have to sit in it for long. “OI!” Jason’s voice practically shook the house. “WHERE’S THE BIRTHDAY GIRL?” Half the room turned toward him. He marched into the living room carrying a stack of red plastic cups beneath one arm. “We’re starting Beer Pong!” A chorus of cheer

    CHAPTER FIFTY THREE FIONA’S POV The first thing I heard that morning was my phone buzzing vigorously. I frowned, keeping my eyes shut for a few more seconds. Who the hell wakes up this early just to text somebody? Still half asleep, I reached over and grabbed my phone. The light pouring from the screen practically blinded me. I squinted, rubbing my eyes as they slowly adjusted. I mean… I was technically blind for a second. 7:01 A.M. One notification popped up. Then another. Then another. Within seconds, my screen was flooded. Happy Birthday!! Eighteen already? Hope you have an amazing day! Have the best birthday ever, Fi! I stared at the messages for a long moment. Honestly… I never understood why people loved birthdays so much. What was there to celebrate? Growing older? Watching another year disappear before you could even hold onto it? People always called birthdays special. I never saw it that way. To me, they were just another remi

    CHAPTER FIFTY TWO DAN’S POV I was beginning to think Toria enjoyed bossing me around. “Sit.” “I’m already sitting.” “Good. Stay there.” I watched her disappear into the kitchen before shaking my head. Three days. I’d only been stuck at home for three days, yet somehow she’d already turned the entire house into her kingdom. Every time I reached for my crutches… “Where are you going?” Every time I stood up… “Sit back down.” Every time I even looked toward the front door… “You are not sneaking outside.” It was exhausting. … “Toria.” “What?” “I think you’re enjoying this.” She walked back into the living room carrying two mugs before handing one to me. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.” “You absolutely do.” “I don’t.” “You smiled.” “I always smile.” “Not like that.” She rolled her eyes. “Drink your tea before it gets cold.” I took one sip. “ This is actually good.” She looked almost offended. “What did you expect?” “

    Kenz's POV Chapter THREE “Shit,” I muttered under my breath. Jeremy pulled away from me so fast it almost made me laugh, but it would be stupid to do that with my situation right now. “Kenz?” my sister called again from outside my door. My stomach dropped. I was as good as dead. Ellie was

    Kenz’s POV Chapter TWO I stared at the text for so long, not knowing what to do. Why the hell was Jeremy texting me? He had ignored me completely after spending the entire summer together, yet those few words he sent shifted something in me, and I really hated it. I finally decided to reply,
