Also, Rupi’s and Brenna’s cycles somehow synced up so now they get their periods at the same time. They’re really mean when that happens.

“But if you need me to knock some sense into him, let me know. I’ll get my boyfriend to beat him up.” “Wait,” Dean balks, channeling Mike Hollis. “I’m your boyfriend.” I snicker. Dean sets his jaw. “I’d never beat up Logan for you, Allie-Cat. He’s my BFF.” “I thought Garrett was your BFF,” she taunts. “I thought I was your BFF,” I whine. He sighs. “Jesus fucking Christ, you’re all my BFFs, okay?”

“Excuse me—sir?” She hops up and approaches the bars. “What’s the punishment for lewd behavior? Is it death?” Once again, he seems to be fighting a smile. “For first-time offenders, usually a fine.” “Perfect,” she chirps. “My co-conspirator is filthy rich. He can write you a check.”

“Was that your move?” Delight dances in her eyes. “Licking the lips, brushing hair off my face, that little thumb rub. That’s totally the move. Right?” I flash a cocky smile. “Depends. Did it work?” “Yes,” she says frankly, and now it’s my breath that hitches.

“That’s Dean,” I tell Demi, who for once is speechless. “Oh,” she finally remarks. “Wow.” I narrow my eyes. “What does that mean?” “It means he’s insanely attractive.” “Yeah, and he knows it,” Garrett says with a sigh.

“Are you sure you have time to hang out?” I ask. I’m standing awkwardly at the foot of the bed, because there’s no room for me on there. “Should I even be here right now?” Demi glares at me. “I’ll kill you if you leave.” I can’t tell if she’s joking. That’s the problem with being into a chick who’s into murderers.

That’s where my idiocy comes in, because how could you cheat on me if we’re not even officially together?” “Sure we are.” I falter. “We are?” “Of course. Just because we haven’t labeled this doesn’t mean we’re not together. When anyone asks, I refer to you as my girlfriend.”

But this girl, the gorgeous woman in my lap—I’m definitely in love with her. I love everything about her. Her intelligence, her sassiness, her craziness. She has the most dynamic personality. There are so many different facets to Demi Davis, and the more I learn about her, the more I love her.

ten chicks could walk in here right now, buck naked, and I’d still only have eyes for you. Even with your face all puffy like that.” “Who are you calling puffy?” she objects. “You. You’re a terrible crier, Semi. You don’t look good crying.” She punches me in the shoulder. “You’re supposed to be acting romantic right now.” “I just told you I loved you! Trust me, I’m fucking romantic.”
