My Hockey Bully Stepbrother Chapter 90
Summer's Pov I stayed out longer than I planned.It started as a quick stop, just one or two things, and then I was walking through the store and the money was sitting in my account and for the first time in my life I thought, why not. I had never really shopped for myself before. Not properly. My mom had always been practical about money in a way that made me practical too, even when there wasn't a reason to be anymore.I bought things I actually wanted and it felt strange and good at the same time.By the time James dropped me back at the house the sun was already going low and the driveway was empty. No Crew's car. No Gray's car. Just the quiet house sitting there with all its lights off.I stood at the door with my bags and looked at the empty driveway for a moment.I almost called Crew.The impulse was there before I could stop it, that automatic reach, and then I remembered the cafe corridor and his hand in Brianna's and good night Summer said from across a desk with nothing be

Crew's Pov Ruby's plan was not bad.I sat in the car after she left and turned it over in my head and the bones of it were solid. Surprise party, gifts, get Summer out of the house so everything could be set up, bring her back to something she wasn't expecting. Simple and clean. Summer had mentioned about never actually celebrating her birthday.That last part sat with me more than I expected it to.Eighteen years and nobody had thrown her a proper birthday. Not once.I drove home and changed out of my uniform and went to find Gray.His tutor was just leaving when I got upstairs. I knocked and pushed the door open and Gray was at his desk, sketchbook open, pencil in hand, still in his school clothes which meant he had gone straight to the session the second he got in.He looked up."You're still in uniform," he said. "That means something happened.""It can wait two seconds." I leaned against the doorframe. "Why don't you come to school? Genuinely. You just stay here and get tutored

Crew's PovThe test was not as bad as I expected.I sat in that classroom and worked through every question and I knew my answers were solid. Not perfect maybe, but solid. The kind of solid that came from actually sitting down and reading the material instead of cramming the night before, which was not something I had historically been great at.Summer's tutoring sessions were doing something whether I wanted to admit that or not.I put my pen down when time was called and leaned back and Marcus immediately leaned forward from the row behind me."Bro. You were writing like your life depended on it. When have you been studying without us?""When was he supposed to study with us?" Jason said from beside him. "We don't even live together.""That's not the point.""That is literally the point."I laughed and it felt good, easy, the kind of laugh that didn't require anything from me.Brianna was beside me gathering her things and she smiled at both of them. "My boyfriend is going to top th

Summer's Pov Lunch was supposed to be just us.That was the thing. Tyler and I had a whole system, a whole routine, and it had always just been the two of us and that was exactly how it worked. We didn't need a third person. We had never needed a third person.But Tyler was still talking to Susan when I picked up my tray and he looked at her and then at me and said, "Susan can come with us, right?"It wasn't even a question really. It came out like it was already decided.Susan turned to me with this carefully polite expression, the kind that was leaving the door open for me to object if I wanted to. "I hope that's okay? I don't want to intrude."Every reasonable part of me knew the correct response."Of course," I said. "I don't mind at all."I minded enormously.We found our usual table and I set my tray down and looked up to find that Susan had sat down beside Tyler, which meant Tyler was now beside Susan and across from me, and the geometry of the whole thing felt like something

Summer's PovI thought about it the whole way home.Which was embarrassing. Tyler had just told me he had feelings for me, which was the actual significant thing that had happened today, and instead of processing that I was sitting in the back of the car while James drove, thinking about a girl I had never seen before in my life and the way she had walked up to Tyler like she already knew exactly where he would be.It wasn't my business.Tyler didn't owe me information about every person in his life. He had friends I hadn't met. That was normal. People had lives outside of the people who knew them.I stared out the window.She had hugged him though.Gray had texted while I was still at the ice cream place saying he had gone out to handle something and would be back in the evening. I read the message and looked at the little bracelet on my wrist and felt something soft and quiet move through me.Crew's car was in the driveway when James pulled up.I registered that the way I always reg

Summer's PovI didn't have a good reason for lying to Tyler.That was the thing that bothered me most walking back to the car with Gray. Not the lie itself, which was small and stupid, but the fact that I had done it so easily. Tyler called and the lie just came out, smooth and automatic, like I had been practicing.I didn't like that about myself.When we got home Gray made food and I helped without either of us talking much, just moving around the kitchen in that comfortable way we had developed without deciding to, and by the time we sat down it felt almost normal.Then Crew walked in.He looked at the two of us at the table and something moved through his face that he shut down fast. He got his own plate and sat down and the three of us ate and the silence was the specific kind that had too much inside it to be comfortable.I broke it because I needed to say something that wasn't about any of us."When do you think our parents are coming back?"Crew looked up. "You mean my dad and
