Dear best friend's brother, kiss me while you can 86.
♡♡HAYDEN'S POV♡♡Jake’s laugh clawed at the walls. I kept my hands open, empty.“Who did you kill this time, little brother?” I said it like a whisper I wasn’t sure I wanted answered.His eyes flared. “Don’t call me that.”Mom’s chair whispered against the rug as she stood. “Boys—”“Save it,” I interrupted her, still watching Jake. “You’ve curated enough silences for one lifetime.”Jake stepped into my space, jaw knotted. “You think naming me fixes me? You think saying ‘brother’ makes me kneel? After all you’ve done to me?”“I think you’re only trying to dodge the question here, brother. I’m well aware of your tactics. You want me to hit you because punishment is simpler than memory. But it won’t stop me from asking again. Who. Did. You. Kill?”Jake’s mouth twitched. He smelled precisely like old fear even though he tried hiding it behind forced laughter. It was as if I’d dug something in his mind, something he had promised himself to forget. “This isn’t about Summer,” I added. “It’

♤♤JAKE'S POV♤♤ I shouldn’t have come here. I shouldn’t have slipped that stupid envelope into Celeste’s hand. But it felt like the only way to stop hearing Summer’s voice in my head. The only way to stop seeing her blood on my hands, even though it wasn’t hers. That dreadful morning, Mom came in like she always did—private jet, black SUVs, gloves. She didn’t even flinch when she saw the mess. She saw me crouched on the floor and touched my face, not the body sprawled on the couch. “I killed her, mom. I killed Summer.” “Jake. Look at me,” she said. “You didn’t kill Summer. You didn’t kill anyone you loved. You made a mistake, but we will handle this.” “She was her. Don’t you get it? She was Summer in my head. I killed Summer.” “No. You didn’t. And no one will know what you did today. You’re my son. You’ll be fine. This dead girl doesn't exist. You never knew her.” Kat. Poor Kat. She had to die because of my fucked up mind. I didn’t even know her full name or anything about her.

☆☆SUMMER’S POV☆☆I tugged the sheet around myself, trying to cover the lingering warmth of Hayden’s skin pressed into mine. My head still buzzed from the storm of him, and my heart was slowing from the chaos he left behind. Yet the thought of Jake—and the text from Celeste—gnawed at me. I couldn’t just stay here.“Hayden…” I bit my lip. “Can you… drop me off at the dormitory? I need to go back. Right now.”He paused, eyes locked on me. “Why?” “Jake… he’s at the dorm.” I showed him my phonescreen. He saw the same thing I had just seen. He didn’t argue. He just nodded.“Let’s go.”The drive to the dorm felt like my chest was a drum being beaten too hard. Hayden didn’t say much, just kept his hand brushing mine occasionally. That small touch should have been comforting… but instead it made me ache. “Why does he feel the need to see you now?” he finally asked. It sounded like he was asking himself and not me. His eyes didn’t leave the road.I swallowed hard. “I really don’t know why. B

☆☆SUMMER’S POV☆☆I was stretched across the bed, the sheets barely covering me. Naked, just like I promised. I could barely hear the bass from the club. And my heartbeat was louder than the voices in my head, each beat dragging the minutes out.I’d lost count of how long Hayden had been gone with JT. Every creak and muffled voice from my head made my heart hitch. What if something went wrong? What if something terrible had happened to his mother?What if’s! Just shut up, Summer. God. I bet fifty bucks that my mind was wired to think of the negatives. I hated not knowing things. Almost as much as I hated knowing things I couldn’t unhear.The door finally opened. I exhaled like I’d been holding my breath since he left. Hayden stepped inside. The click of the door locking made me reposition myself. His gaze cut through the red blue lights. He saw me. And stopped. I laid naked. Breasts perky and nipples pointing at his direction. Legs crossed over the other. Lips stretched in a seductive

♡♡HAYDEN'S POV♡♡🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥The cuffs were still warm where they’d bitten into her wrists. I should’ve taken them off before I stood. Should’ve given her back her shirt. But I’d already torn it up. I’d have to give her mine. I should've done a lot of things—none of which included opening that door to JT.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥The knock came again. Too sharp this time around. JT always knew how to make an entrance. Of all 24 hours in a day, he chose now to invade my privacy.I carried Summer to the bathroom to wash off. She was shaking like a leaf. So small and so fragile. I could keep her here forever with me if it were possible. I left my shirt on the towel hook.I walked back to the room to find a new shirt in the wardrobe. I buttoned slowly, pretending I couldn’t hear the banging on the door and Ernesto’s voice underneath JT’s hollering.“Boss, he said he wouldn’t leave,” Ernesto said out loud when JT stopped hitting the door.“I can speak for myself,” JT countered.BANG. BANG. He slammed his

☆☆SUMMER'S POV☆☆Hayden stepped away from me. He moved in circles. Each step made my heart beat faster. His voice came from behind, startling me.“Will you be my girlfriend, nugget?”I froze. That was not where I thought this was going. Not here. Not now. I never could have thought Hayden would ask me out. I’d wanted this since forever. Since the first day I saw him last summer, but now I just.. I didn’t know what to say.“I—” My throat tightened.He stepped closer until I felt his chest against my back, his mouth brushing my ear.“Hayden, I don’t know what to say.”“Say yes,” he murmured.“What happens if I say no?”His hands slid down my arms and stopped at my hips. He traced the cuffs with a finger.“You won’t say no.”“How are you so fucking sure?”I should have stalled. I should have laughed it off. But my head was swimming. My body shuddered as his hands glided up and down my arms again. I wanted to turn to him. But I couldn’t. I just felt stupid. Shitty. Jake was suffering and
