Dig

"Are you going to be trouble tonight, Aria?" "Pfft… Why would you say that?" I take a long pull from my beer, trying to act unaffected when, in all honesty, Tony will always make me nervous. Boyfriend or not. "Well, for one, you came out of the house looking like that," He rakes his eyes long and slow up my body until his eyes are on mine again, "and I don’t think Spencer can keep us all back, on top of the random guys that will no doubt hit on you tonight." My brow furrows at his insinuation. "What do you mean ‘keep the guys back’?" He takes another drink of his beer before saying, "Every guy in the school knew you were off-limits growing up. The problem is, you're all grown up now, and very much a woman." I nod as if what he’s saying is obvious when, really, I’m stunned. For years, I thought all the guys viewed me as Spencer’s little pain-in-the-ass sister. Not his hot sister, who was off-limits.
