Darrin said, ‘‘Troy wants to know about your new girlfriend.’’
‘‘She’s not my girlfriend,’’ I said, looking up. ‘’And how did he hear about that?’’
‘‘Because I’m talking to him right now.’’
I frowned. ‘‘Don’t give away my secrets, Darrin.’’
Darrin stood up. His hair was wet from a shower, and he was wearing only boxers. ‘‘It’s Troy. Our brother. He’s not going to tell anyone.’’
I looked down at my phone and re-read the texts Megan had sent me: the conversation between her and Hadley Strong. A second later, Sasha ran upstairs and said, ‘‘You’re freaking out of condoms, Darrin.’’
‘‘Cody’s got some.’’ Darrin shrugged. ‘‘Cris?’’
I sighed, put my phone in my pocket, grabbed my keys, and took Sasha and Darrin in my truck. Halfway to Cody’s house, they started making out and were both naked by the time I stopped, so I stepped outside and walked home, leaving my brother and his girlfriend to make love in the back of my truck.
What’re you doing? Megan texted.
Screwing up.
