CHAPTER 61

"It's not what it looks like." Are the first words that come out of mouth.

Of course Beth and Paul aren't going to believe that. I mean who would—Sebastian Harrison is standing in the closet of my room, holding his shirt and shoe in his hands, and they're supposed to believe that it's "not what it looks like?"

"It really isn't," Sebastian adds. "I know it's hard to believe me out of all people but it isn't what it looks like."

Sebastian's words are going in one ear and out the other; Beth and Paul just stand gawking at him like he isn't real. I want to tell them to stop—even though I know Sebastian's used to this type of thing—but I'm rendered a bit speechless right now that this is actually happening.
