snapped.
    “Shut up!” Emmy yelled. “I want to hear the movie!”
    “Rent the fucking DVD! Nobody wants you here!”
    “I! Don’t! Care!” Emmy screamed. Then we realized the people below us had heard her. We all held our breath waiting for them to do something, but they overlooked it and turned their attention back to the film.
    “Maybe they’re so bombed they think they imagined it,” Chase laughed. So did I. The word bombed just sounded so funny. It echoed in my head accompanied by the sounds of whistling explosions I’d heard in movies and television.
    “Fuck!” Emmy growled, and glared at Asher. “I hate your stupid friends!” She slung her golden hair over her shoulder before stomping away from everyone.
    “I want her here,” Asher said to Hazel.
    “Bringing her was super shitty of you, but what’s new? You’re great at being super shitty,” she growled.
    Asher shook his head at Hazel, a disgusted look on his face. There was more he wanted to say, but decided to chase Emmy instead.
    Even in my condition, I understood what was happening, and knew better than to ask about Hazel and Asher’s relationship, so I asked about Emmy instead.
    “Why is she like that?” I asked Kasey.
    “She just turned sixteen for starters.” My jaw dropped. “She’s also the baby of her family.” Obviously , I thought. “She’s used to having everything her way.”
    Frederick arrived shortly after Emmy’s tantrum; we helped him load the car before piling inside. Hazel told him to keep going when he stopped to pick up Asher and Emmy, who were about a mile ahead of us. They sat in the front seat with Frederick and didn’t say anything to anyone when they got out at Asher’s a few minutes later.
    “Sayonara bitches,” Hazel mumbled as they walked away.
    “Sorry Kasey, but I can’t deal with them together,” Tosh said. “I miss Asher sometimes, too, but…” she trailed off shaking her head. 
    “I should have known he’d bring her,” Kasey said. “Sorry,” he said to Hazel. She shrugged it off.
    “Asher hasn’t been out with us in a while—Emmy’s why,” Kasey explained to me. Because of the carefree state I was in, I didn’t respond.
    We snuck back into Tosh’s room and Luke flipped on the TV again, making sure Vita was still sleeping. After that, Luke and Tosh went to the closet and Hazel and Chase went to the bathroom, leaving Kasey and me alone.
    Kasey sat down on the bed and patted a place in front of him. “Come lay down,” he suggested. I’m not sure what my face was doing, but my expression had to have been off because he laughed and said, “I’m not going to molest you or anything.”
    “I didn’t figure you for a molester,” I snickered. “I’m sure you don’t have any problems getting girls into bed.”
    Kasey smiled, amused. “Why do you say that?”
    “Look at you,” I blurted.
    “What does the way I look have to do with anything?”
    “Everything,” I sighed. “Girls will put up with a whole lot of shit to be with a hot guy.”
    Kasey grinned, a touch of laughter pushing through. “You think I’m hot?” he asked.
    “Please! The whole world thinks you’re hot. I bet you’ve always known it, too.”
    He shook his head. “I’m not concerned with the whole world tonight. Only you.”
    “Well, I’ve got a newsflash for you, William Oliver Kason Grayson the third. You’re super seriously smokin’ hot,” I whispered, and sat down next to him on the bed.
    “Yeah well, I hope you remember how hot you think I am right now in the morning.”
    “I’ll remember how hot you are for the rest of my life,” I stated firmly.
    Kasey laughed.
    “I had so much fun tonight,” I smiled. “Hazel said I would.” I browsed his face as he studied mine; glad I’d taken Hazel up on her invitation. My brain was way too foggy to figure out why Kasey was looking so intently at me, but I liked that he was. I liked the way it made my insides feel twisted and anxious.
