I close my eyes, biting my lip. I do not want my sister parading around the house in a bikini, though I do want Sofia doing just that. But I’m a brother before a horny horndog, and if things go well, I can have Sofia in my room in a bikini. I don’t like that party anyway. Something always goes shitty, and then I’m cleaning up someone else’s mess. Last year, there was a sexual assault claim that almost got the house shut down. The guy wasn’t from Bellevue, so we’ve had to step up security. “No way.”
“Then no deal.”
She tries to move around me, but I stop her. “It’s a shitastic party. I hate it, and I refuse to have my baby sister there. Or even the girl I’m attracted to. So, no.”
“How sweet,” she says dryly. “But no.”
“Amelia,” I stress, and she looks up at me, bored.
“What?”
“I’ll introduce you to Moon.”
Her eyes light up. “Really?”
I can introduce her to my roommate with no problems, and he’ll be nice, but then he’ll stay clear of her. Forever. Or I’ll kill him. Amelia doesn’t need to know that, though. So with a nod, I say, “Yes.”
“Great! I’ll bring her to the party tonight!”
Oh, thank God. “Awesome.”
Now it’s time to put on the charm.
