WHEN I GET UP IN THE morning, I feel sore. My thighs, my p***y, my breasts. The tension in my legs reminds me of the morning after I ran a 5k last summer. I waddle to the bathroom, and during my shower I find a hickey on my hip. After the shower, I’m standing before the mirror when I see another one blooming right next to my n****e. Holy s**t, I’m not a virgin anymore. I had s*x twice. With Sawyer. My stepbrother’s best friend. I could destroy their entire relationship if Asher finds out. But that’s for later. They’re leaving today. Today. I get dressed quickly, pulling on a dress that will cover everything. I do my hair, but I can’t find the desire or the time to do my makeup. I hurry down the stairs and get there for breakfast. Mom smiles at me and pulls out my chair. Sawyer and Ashe
