Luke dropped his hands. “Yes, that’s what I’m talking ’bout. A guy who knows what the hell he wants.”
That was when it happened. I saw Libby walking up. She went to move around Luke to avoid him, and he quickly turned to look over the small bank. In the process of doing that, he ran right into Libby, who took a few steps back and began losing her balance.
I quickly jumped down to try to grab her before she fell over the edge, but Luke was in between us. Instead of helping her, he pushed her more by mistake. Libby screamed and grabbed on to Luke’s T-shirt, pulling him right into the river with her.
“Shit.” I looked at both of them in the water.
Libby was screaming as Luke was laughing his ass off.
“Lib, here, take my hand,” I said.
Colt attempted to help Luke up.
“Nice going, you drunken fool,” Libby said. “I have to go back now and change.” She glared at Luke.
“I have a change of clothes in the clubhouse, Lib, if you want to go there,” Lex said.
“Luke, I’ve got a pair of jeans and a T-shirt there, too,” I said.
Colt started laughing. “Libby, you can take my truck, so y’all can change.”
Libby looked at Luke and shook her head. “Fine.”
Colt handed her the keys, and she began walking to his truck.
Luke followed behind her. “Libby…Libby…shit, don’t run so fast. Everything is spinning.”
Libby stopped and looked back at Luke. “Oh my gosh.” She walked up to him and took him by the arm to lead him to Colt’s truck. She opened the passenger door and pushed him in, causing him to hit his head.
“Who the hell just hit me on the head?” Luke called out.
I looked at Colt, and we both started laughing.
“Maybe you should go help her.” I looked back at Libby getting into Colt’s truck.
“Hell no. Those two need to get their shit together. The more time they spend alone, the better.” Colt turned and walked away.
I watched my sister drive off with my drunk best friend. “I’ll kill him if he tries something,” I mumbled.
Lex walked up to me and tapped my shoulder. “I need your help.”
I smiled. “Okay.”
I followed Lex as we moved farther away from everyone. “Lex, where are we—”
“Shh!”
I closed my mouth and followed in silence. After Lex pushed our way through some brush, I saw an opening.
“Okay. She hasn’t brought him here yet.”
Lex began peeking through the trees and brush.
“Who? What are you talking about?” I asked as I tried to see what she was looking at.
“Maegan. I need you to record what happens between Maegan and Mike.”
“Wait—what?”
