Then the bed shifted. I felt Dylan move beside me, his weight pressing into the mattress. I assumed he was moving in to take his turn with Faye, but when I opened my eyes, he wasn’t reaching for her. He was propped up on one elbow, looking down at me. His expression was serious, his eyes darker than I’d ever seen them.
“Jase,” he whispered.
“Yeah?”
He didn’t answer with words; he just leaned in and kissed me hard.
It wasn’t tentative.
It wasn’t a question.
It was a statement.
I jerked back as if I’d been burned, my hand coming up between us to push at his chest. “What the hell, bro?”
Faye stopped. The room went silent except for our ragged breathing.
He backed away, his face flushed. He looked scared. He looked like he’d just jumped off a building with no safety net. “I … Sorry. I don’t know why I did that.”
“You kissed me,” I stated, the words flat and stupid in the air.
“I know.” He dragged a hand over his hair, his gaze dropping to the sheets. The confidence he always carried was gone.
“Don’t you dare be sorry,” Faye told Dylan, her voice soft but firm. She crawled up the bed and positioned herself between us, looking back and forth. She put a hand on Dylan’s cheek, turning his face toward hers. “You want to kiss him?” she asked, like she was asking if he wanted a glass of water.
He swallowed hard, then his eyes flicked to me for a second before going back to her. He gave one slight nod.
Faye turned to me, her hand came to my face, her thumb stroking my cheek. “Jase,” she said, her voice dropping to a murmur. “Look at him.”
I did. Dylan looked wrecked.
“He wants to kiss you, and I really, really want to see it.” She leaned closer, her lips brushing my ear. “We’re together, so why not all of us be together?”
Because this was Dylan.
My best friend.
My stepbrother.
