Chapter 38: Rose
Leaving the Mactire’s was a quiet affair, at first. Sarina was fuming at Susan, and she wasn’t up for a lot of talking. Not after avoiding Nate’s cousins. Octopus arms must be a family trait. I couldn’t help but grin at the memory of Saoirse trying to help Sarina undress.
“What are you grinning at?” Kamron whispered in my ear.
“I was just remembering Saoirse trying to help Sarina strip. Rina wasn’t appreciative,” I whispered back.
Kamron chuckled. “I imagine she wasn’t. At least not after the bombshell we got at dinner.”
“I’m assuming you warned Ray that he’s in deep shit?” I snuggled closer to Kamron. We were in the very

The news about Sue knowing our secret, and the fact she’s been secretly dating Ray, was huge. Not that her knowing, or them dating is something that Mom and Dad would care about, if they were told about it. Since they weren’t told, they’re annoyed. I swear, they were up half the night thinking up ways to torture Ray. It’s going to be hilarious when the lovebirds come home for summer.History reminded me that Jeremy was still having a rough go. We’d hung out over the last weekend, and I managed to annoy him enough that he told me what was going on with him. His parents are splitting, and his mom is planning on moving a few towns away. If he went with her, he’d only see his dad on weekends.He’s not a big fan of his dad. His dad is one of those macho guys who expects his son to be into sp

I could have danced with Kamron for hours. He was such a great dancer, and Saoirse was a decent DJ. We made it through four or five songs before I signaled I needed a drink, and we went looking for Nate.He was still at his makeshift bar, and was smiling and flirting. He’d put out a tip jar since we’d last talked with him. “Nate!” I shouted over the crowd to get his attention. Kamron was behind me holding my hand.“Rose! Water or mocktail?” he asked.“Water, please,” I said, holding up two fingers. He nodded and grabbed two water bottles for us.“Having fun?” he asked.“Saoirse’s

I was going to find my sister, kill the guy in bed with her, kill the person who took the picture, and then kill Simon. I shouldn’t have trusted him to keep Kimi close. Who would kidnap my sister anyway? She hasn’t hurt anyone! What would someone gain from that?After scenting everyone who was leaving the party, and not smelling my sister, Nate, Saoirse, and I shifted in Nate’s room. He’d opened his window, since his house was only one story, and the three of us used that as an exit so Simon wouldn’t get suspicious.I led the way into the yard, and followed from where I found Kimi’s scent earlier. We were fortunate the kidnappers walked where they were going. If they had used a car, we would have been in serious trouble. We almost lost her trail a few times, but between the three of us, we we

Kimia was completely out of it. All I could do on the way to the hospital was stroke her hair from her face, and try to soothe her. “How much longer before we get to the hospital?” I asked.“Another twenty minutes,” Mrs. Graycort said grimly. We ended up sitting in silence for that time listening to Kimia’s occasional moans.When we finally got to the emergency entrance, Nate and Kamron helped Kimia get out of the van, and Kamron carried her in his arms through the doors. The rest of us followed him and his mom as they went to the receptionist.“What’s the emergency?” The guy behind the desk was calm, and almost bored.“My daughter was abducted, possibly ra

Everything was dark, but I could still hear sounds. There was a beeping, and my mother was there along with Rina. I just couldn’t move. They were talking to someone. Kam? Rose? No. Nate. Why is my mom talking to Nate? Where was I?Okay, I needed to think. I couldn’t move, my family and Nate were around me, and the last thing I remembered was what? Argh. My brain was not working. I could feel myself slipping away and back into where? I’d been floating. I remember the feel of vines. No, not vines. I really needed to open my eyes.“When do they think she’ll wake up?” Rose. Rose was here.“She could wake up anytime, but they said that rest and fluids would help her the best,” my mom answered. So I was asleep. Ish. Well, I was

The ride home was quiet. I don’t think any of us knew what to say. Nate was up front with Rina while I was in the back with Rose nodding off on my shoulder. I knew I was exhausted. Seeing Kimi open her eyes and swear at everyone was a massive relief. I knew she’d be okay after that. My anger had gone down to a simmer, and I just didn’t want to think about it for a while.“She’s going to need a lot of unconditional love, and no egg shells,” Nate’s voice filtered from the front.“How do you know so much about this?” I asked him. It was weird. Just being a bartender wasn’t enough to give someone that kind of empathy.“I just know people who had similar experiences, and I saw them deal with it,” Nate went si

“We’re back!” It was after lunch when Mr. and Mrs. Graycort brought Kimia home. They came to our house because they knew we were anxious about seeing Kimia looking alright. Mrs. Graycort gave my mom a hug. “Thank you so much for taking the kids in a pinch, Harold and Georgia.”I practically tackled Kimia when I saw her. “Can’t breathe,” she gasped.“We are always available to help, Lus,” Mom said, hugging Mrs. Graycort.Dad gripped Mr. Graycort’s shoulder. “You are family. Mi casa, es su casa.”“Coffee?” Mom asked.“Please!” Mr. and Mrs. Graycort answered.&

I got a text from Kimi to meet her in the main office. I was a bit confused as to why she’d be there. It wasn’t till I opened the door to the office, and saw my sister and my girlfriend in their gym clothes that it clicked. The evil bitch is in their gym class. Fuck.“What happened?” I asked them.“Rose punched Kirsten,” Kimi whispered. I looked over at Rose, and she was angry. Angrier than I had ever seen her before. I could almost feel the hostility radiating off of her. It was kind of sexy.“Seriously?” I asked in awe.Rose glared at me. “The bitch had a video, and she was showing it to her bitchy friends.” Just like that, my hardon went soft.
