Chapter Twenty-Eight

So remember a while back when I said I’ll never figure girls out?

Add today’s unexpected series of events to that list.

I awake to a series of messages from Zahra, saying that she overreacted in the moment, and she really would rather ride with me to the party. The other messages are a string of “I didn’t mean what I said,” and “We need to talk this through,” among other things I’d rather not talk about because it’s liable to make my head hurt and my heart ache.

The minute I finish reading the texts, I almost throw my phone against the wall.

Between the lack of sleep from feeling disconnected from her all night and making a surprise run with Unk to pick up some extra inventory for the shop because it’s a holiday weekend, I’m completely exhausted before noon.

Oh, and of course it’s a holiday weekend, which makes all the sense on the planet over why Ian would throw a party on a Sunday night. No school on Monday, which means all types of shenanigans are possible, with enough time to recover before school on Tuesday.

Now, I have to balance whether I want to ask for… What the hell am I asking for? To be forgiven? I didn’t do anything. One minute, she wants to be friends because she’s scared of how she feels, and the next minute, she’s not scared and wants to find a way to figure things out.

Just throw the whole damn weekend away.

I still don’t have a clue over what to do about my—former?—Squad in the A. Dante wants to act like I’m the bad guy when I know for a fact that Ally twisted the whole situation to keep from going out bad. She caught feelings, I didn’t do anything for her to get caught up, and because I didn’t handle things well—yeah, that’s on me, real talk—I get labeled a traitor.

I’ll have to deal with that later.

The more important matter at hand stands about five foot six with hazel-green eyes that take me prisoner every single time I gaze into them.

My challenge…resisting her charms. She’s the one who needs to get back on my good side, not the other way around. I gave her my truth, and she chose to break things off.

My other challenge? Trying my best to not make it easy for her. Yeah, I want us to be together, but she doesn’t need to know all that so soon. If the roles were reversed, she’d be putting me through it.

I step out of the shower, then towel off so I can get my oils rubbed into my skin. I think about what I want to put on for tonight. The petty in me rages to the surface, and I remind myself that, while Zahra and I are trying to figure out where we stand, she and I aren’t together, together. She made that decision for the both of us.

Laid out on my bed are two distinctly different outfits, and as I consider my options, I have a YOLO moment.
