Summer’s Pov

We settled into the car and Crew connected everything so we could both hear clearly through the earpieces, and then he reached into the back seat and pulled out a paper bag.

"I brought snacks," he said.

I looked at him. "That's actually really thoughtful."

I hadn't eaten properly since yesterday and my stomach had been too knotted with everything going on to remind me. But when I opened the bag and saw the pizza slices and juice boxes something in my body just gave up being dramati

  • My Hockey Bully Stepbrother    Chapter 109

    Tyler’s PovForty minutes in that room and I had a headache.Not a stress headache, not a tired headache, the specific kind that developed when you were surrounded by two people whose entire energy was a live wire pointed at each other and you were standing directly between them. I did not know how Summer survived this on a daily basis. I did not know how she had not simply walked into the sea.Crew was heading for the door, which was the first piece of good news in a while, when he stopped and turned to Gray.“Are you not coming?”Gray looked at him. “Do we share a schedule now?”“I’m asking a simple question.”“And I’m pointing out that we did not arrive in this room together, so I don’t see why we would need to leave together.”“I didn’t say together, I said—”I had a fully formed sentence ready to go. Something along the lines of: you two did not come into this world at the same time either, so by that logic you can both leave whenever you individually decide to. I kept it behind

    Crew’s Pov“You will not,” Gray said.I turned to look at him.“May I remind you,” Gray said, with the particular calm of someone who had been waiting to say something and was now enjoying the opportunity, “that you are the worst cook in this house. Possibly in this neighborhood. Possibly in a wider radius than that.”“I cook fine.”“Summer, has my brother ever cooked for you?”Summer, lying on the bed with her eyes half closed, said nothing.“Summer,” Gray said again.“I am sick,” she said. “I am not getting involved in this.”“That is not a denial,” Gray said, looking at me.“I have cooked before,” I said.“For who?”“For myself.”“And how did that go.”I said nothing.“Right.” Gray straightened up. “I have cooked for Summer before. She has eaten my food before. Her stomach did not stage a protest afterward. Given that her stomach is currently the subject of everyone’s concern tonight, I think the logical choice is clear.”“The logical choice,” I said, “is not the person whose food

    Crew’s PovI did not want to leave her alone for even five minutes.That was the problem with going to get Gray. It required walking down the hall, knocking on a door, waiting for someone to open it, having a conversation, walking back. That was too many steps. That was too much time away from a situation I did not fully trust to stay stable without me in it.I walked fast anyway.Gray’s door opened before I had finished knocking, which meant he had heard me coming.He looked at me. “Not again.”“Summer’s not feeling well,” I said.Something shifted immediately in his face. “What do you mean not feeling well.”“I mean she started coughing during our session and then she coughed up blood and I’ve already called the doctor who is on his way here right now, so—”I did not finish the sentence because Gray had physically moved me out of his own doorway, stepped past me into the hall, and was already walking toward Summer’s room at a speed that was almost a run.I stood there for half a sec

    Summer’s PovThe thing about stomach ulcers is that they give you warnings.Little ones, small enough to ignore, a sharp twinge here, a burning there, the kind of thing you file away under I’ll deal with it later and then forget about entirely because later never feels urgent enough. I had been doing that for weeks. Maybe longer. The stress of everything, the house, the situation with Crew, the blackmail, the cover-up, the birthday chaos, all of it stacking on top of each other like weight I kept redistributing instead of actually putting down.I had known. I had felt it building. I had done nothing about it.And now I was sitting on my bed with blood on my palm, and Crew was standing over me looking like someone had just pulled the floor out from under him.He was back in under a minute with a bottle of water and his phone already in his hand.“I’m calling Dad and your mom,” he said.“No.” I shook my head immediately. “No, don’t do that.”“Summer—”“Crew, please.”He looked at me wit

    Summer’s Pov“Did you use the perfume I got you?”“Yes,” I said, and then heard how flat that came out and added, “Thank you for the gift. I actually really like the scent.”Something in his expression settled. “I’m glad.”“How did you know I’d like it?”He looked at me for a second. “I just knew.”I decided not to pull on that thread.“I got you the same one,” he said, almost conversational, reaching forward to flip open the gift box that was still sitting on the desk between us. Inside, nestled in tissue, were two more identical bottles. “Three total. So it lasts you a long time.” A pause. “And so we’re twinning. In a way.”I looked at my hands.Then I looked at him.His hair was still damp from a shower, pushed back slightly, falling forward in a way that was doing things it had absolutely no business doing, and he was wearing a black vest and sweatpants like he had made zero effort and somehow still managed to show up looking like that. I had a very clear and very unwelcome though

  • My Hockey Bully Stepbrother    Chapter 104

    Crew’s PovThe walk down the hallway after leaving Summer’s room was the most uncomfortable thirty seconds of my day, and my day had already included Gray and me standing in a doorway arguing about who knocked first.Gray walked beside me in silence, which was somehow worse than if he had said something. The silence had a shape to it. I could feel him thinking and I did not want to know what about.“Gray,” I said.“If it’s about Summer,” he said, without looking at me, “I don’t want to hear it.”I looked at the side of his face. “I can’t talk to my own brother now.”He stopped walking. Turned to look at me. “What is it.”I had rehearsed this in my head approximately zero times, which was probably obvious. “I haven’t apologized,” I said. “For last night. For what I did.”Gray waited.“I want to be clear that you still had no right to kiss her,” I said.He opened his mouth.“Let me finish.” I held up one hand. “That is not the apology part. The apology part is this. I should not have pu
