“Jett. I reckon it’s Jett Wilson. She won’t tell me, but he was older than us.”
I studied Gabe as he folded his arms, staring straight at Summer. I frowned, unsure why he wasn’t responding anymore with the gusto he’d had regarding Alice.
“What did he say?” he asked finally, his tone defeated.
I shrugged, “He asked me if I was deaf. Little fucker. Told me to put Summer on the phone.”
Gabe shook his head as he exhaled, glancing at me as he straightened up in his chair. “Bet you can’t wait to see him.”
“The thing is, I know she isn’t interested in him.” Gabe watched me as I turned towards him in my chair, leaning forward so only he could hear me. “She’s not interested in anyone.”
“Hmm…but she’s fucking gorgeous and so nice. There’s no way she’ll be single for long. She just has to meet someone who isn’t afraid of you.”
I tilted my head as I stared at him, realizing the tone in his voice changed when he spoke about Summer. I decided not to press it, but I had a sneaking suspicion my best friend had it bad for my sister.
Maybe I needed to buy her a chastity belt, fuck it.
CHAPTER 9
CALEB
JT had it bad, too.
We were running on the track during gym when he approached me. He had sandy blonde hair and a square jawline, almost like the cartoon character, Johnny Bravo. He smiled as he jogged beside me, greeting me with a shitty “Yo.”
I nodded and picked up my pace, hoping he would get the message and fuck off.
“So, I was thinking…”
“Dangerous,” I snapped, already annoyed.
“I’m going to ask your sister out.”
I stopped running, and he ran into me like the useless lump he was. “Are you kidding me right now?” I huffed as he tried to catch his breath. I folded my arms, glaring at him in sheer disbelief. “You’re fucking with me, right?”
He shifted uneasily, glancing around us, before taking a step towards me.
“I don’t want to just fuck her, Caleb—”
‘So, you’re admitting you want to fuck her,” I growled.
“Dude, the entire school wants to fuck her. She’s hot,” he leered.
“No,” I said firmly, as his eyes narrowed at me.
“I wasn’t asking for your consent,” he spat, and before I knew it, he had pushed me, my instant reaction being to sock him square in his ugly fucking face. My fist connected with his obscene jaw, and I watched with pleasure as he toppled backward, his hands cupping his mouth.
“You fucking dick!” he cried as he lunged towards me, clearly wanting more.
He was bigger, but I was quicker. I stepped aside and hooked my arm around his neck from behind, tightening my grip on him as he struggled against me.
“Listen, you dirty prick. Keep the fuck away from my sister, or I’ll cut your balls off and shove them up your fucking asshole,” I hissed into his ear as the teacher blew his whistle frantically, running up to us with wide eyes.
“Fallon! The principal’s office,now. Go!”
I released JT slowly, and he turned around to face me.
“Her ass is mine,” he smirked before he walked away, giving me a dirty wink, which made me want to gut him like a fucking fish. The teacher was glaring at me as I got to my feet, silently losing my shit.
