Status Updates From Perfect Cover (The Squad, #1)

the mc is so unbearably rude

So we are meeting the bad guys

That was so funny

We get it you hate them

That's interesting that they made her move

So we have met Chip

What was a girl to do? I kicked him in the shin, and nor one of the other cheerleaders glared at me. They were too busy trying to figure out how I'd managed to get a date with Jack "Unattainable" Peyton in under two minutes.

"Chip, if you try to look down my shirt one more time, I'm going to have to hurt you."

Chip, student body president and generic hottie, grinned. "Would you please?" he asked. The rest of the guys grinned lecherously at Chip's wit.

I was too busy pondering this turn of events to answer Jack, and someone (my money was on one of the twins, who’d arrived just in time to put in an appearance and pick up on the fact that I'd defaced my shirt) kicked me sharply under the table.

"Ow!" I shrieked.

"I'Il take that as a yes, then," Jack said. "Pick you up at seven."

"You know, Ev," he said, "a little sparkle never hurt a girl."

"Bite me, Peyton."

"Love to, he said. "Does that mean we're on for tonight?"

The other girls gawked at me. I'd done more or less nothing but insult him, and he'd asked me out.

I couldn't stand the look on his face. "Congratulations," I said, sarcasm dripping from my voice. "It must be a great honor."

He broke into a grin then, and it changed his face in a way that I had to admit wasn't entirely unpleasant.
