I stare at Christopher, mouth agape.
"So you were getting to her through...me?"
"Yes and I am so, so sorry"
"It makes sense, weirdly"
"It does?" He raises an eyebrow
"Yeah"
The air in the room has shifted to awkward.
"Peyton" He says softly.
He leans in. I don't move. I don't know what to do.
The sound of the bell ringing makes me jump and him to pull away.
I'm disgusted with myself. I can't kiss him.
What AJ told me echoes through my mind.
I can't do that. I'm no temptress and I am sure as shit not going to use seduction as a weapon.
"Hello, pendej-oh!" Richards eyes widen as he notices me
"Great to see you too, Camacho"
Richard gives me a once over, softly whistling.
"Hello, grown up Pey-Pey"
I see Christopher's jaw tick from my peripheral.
"Hi" I saay.
"Chris" Richard entirely ignores my response "We gotta go Renato wants us to change the song for the wedding"
"What? Why?"
Richard shrugs.
When both boys are out of the room, I sag against the door.
What would've happened if Richard hadn't walked in?
"Get up to anything interesting?" AJ smirks at me as I put down my breakfast plate next to her.
Its 9 am and its the day of Katlyn's surprise bachelorette party.
"No" I reply and my sister leaned closer "Get the D, yet?"
Oscar, who just happens to be sitting near us splutters and Katlyn raises an eyebrow.
"Did you...?" AJ prods and my face heats up
"No" I hiss "Shut up"
"Mhm"
"I'm not gonna go along with that mundane scheme of yours" I whisper
"What scheme?" Katlyn joins in, pulling her chair closer while Oscar pretends to turn away.
"Miss Peyton over here is-holy fuck, who is THAT?" My sister's predatory gaze follows a tall blonde male as he walks out of the dining area.
"That" Katlyn smirks deviously "Is Tanner , Oscar's best friend"
"Ooh la la" My sister sighs dreamily and I snort.
The jovial mood is instantly ruined by my mother strutting up to us.
"Hello, girls" She smiles at us.
I bite my cheek until I taste blood in order to withhold the nasty things I want to say to her.
"Can y'all come dress shopping with me?" My mother looks hopeful.
"Sorry, no, I've got a date" AJ walks out before Mom has the chance to enquire.
When my sister is set on something or someone, there's no stopping her. Poor Tanner.
"Can you come?" I open my mouth to say no but my mother's eyes glisten with hope.
"Okay" I grit my teeth, forcing a fake smile.
