"A few times." When I was in high school. Then college. Once I had my first set of homemade pictures, I didn't want to find the professional thing. "Why? Do you have a video to send me?"
Her cheeks flush. "Do I seem that obsessed?"
"Yes."
"I'm not. I just, uh, I've watched a fair amount. For studies. There's a really wide range. I like the stuff marketed as 'for women,' usually. It's a little more emotional, more subtle."
"There's something left for your imagination."
She nods. "There's mystery." She turns the corner and comes to the fake French bistro.
And there's Zack and Laurel waiting outside.
"It's your turn," she says.
"We'll pick up when they leave," I say.
She offers her hand.
I shake.
Then, I face the metaphorical music. I join my brother and sister at the front.
Chapter Eleven
Jackson
Zack and Laurel are wearing matching hot pink outfits. She’s in a short dress with a sash that saysMaid of Dishonor,and he's wearing a pink button-up shirt and slacks.
His messy hair is cut short.
Her waves are pulled into a low bun, and her makeup is colorful shades of gold, silver, and red.
As always, she looks chic, and he looks like a movie star at a premiere.
As usual, they're wearing expressions that sayI'm going to make your life so difficult and I'm going to love every minute.
"Hey." Laurel nodshelloto me and waves wildly at Daphne. "I think your brother is occupied at the moment."
So Damon and Cassie aren't here. Are they skipping dinner for work or sex? No. I don't want to know.
Daphne's nose scrunches. "Does it not bother you to think ofyour sisteroccupied the same way?"
Laurel shakes her head. "Do I occasionally go 'ick' at the thought of my sister's sex life? Sure. But do I push through itto enjoy this"—she points to my face—"I mean, look at it. He's horrified. The very thought of your brother railing Cassie makes him want to throw up."
Daphne holds her nose.
Zack laughs.
Laurel laughs with him. "You too, huh? I'm surprised you're so traditional."
"Are those the options? Either she's a traditional bore or she wants to hear you talk about her brother's sex life?" I ask.
But, of course, that's what Laurel wants. She smiles with victory. She even motions to me againlook how it bothers him! Isn't this fun?
Zack nods along with herit is fun.
As always, they're in their own universe, where they cause everyone trouble and find it incredibly amusing.
