"Only if you want me to. Otherwise, this can be our dirty little secret."

Use any perk you’ve been given.
"We kissed. Not just kissed. She had my tongue down her throat and loved it." Koi burst into our cabin, looking pretty fucking proud of himself. A pit dropped in my stomach as he walked around the room with his chest high and smile wide. "She told me not to tell you, but fuck if I don't like a good brag."
I swallowed down my pride and forced nonchalance. "So? I kissed her too. I was her first kiss."
Koi went to the mini fridge and pulled out a beer. He offered one to me, but I refused. I just wanted to go to sleep. I thought we'd had a moment—Domino and I. She softened in my arms. Her lips and tongue were moving with mine. She felt something, I knew that. He tossed his Jason mask on the table and propped his feet up.
"So she's safe in her cabin then?" I lay in bed. Despite wanting to sleep and get this night over with, I wasn't even slightly tired. I was wired, full of energy and silent rage.
"That she is. I didn't try to go in with her. I figured I should take the gentleman approach and thank her for the lovely evening and leave it at that."
"You're no gentleman." I laughed dryly. "Did you really wear that thing into the woods?" I nodded to the mask.
"Nah, I mean, I did, but took it off way before I got close to her. If she knew it was me in the mask, she didn't say anything. Maybe she liked it."
I huffed. What a fucking asshole.
"Why are you so pissed off? I thought we were sharing her." Koi grinned, knowing exactly why I was angry.
"Why doesn't she want me to know?" I asked, but before I could get an answer, my phone dinged with a text, and then both of our phones went off at the same chime. Domino was using her cell phone. We stared at each other for a long moment before I pulled out my phone.
Domino: Are you still up? Can we talk?
"What are you going to do?" Koi asked, reading the message from the app on his phone. "Have you ever been shot down this fast before?" He teased.
"We'll see about that." Knowing full well he would see anything I text her, I quickly responded.
Me: Somewhere private. I'll be at your cabin in 5.
I shoved my phone in my pocket and started out the door.
"What does that even mean?" Koi called after me. I ignored him, storming out into camp and darting directly to her cabin. The light was on, and before I could knock, the door opened and Domino stood before me in a hoodie and loose sweat shorts. Even in lounge clothes, she was hot as fuck.
"Hey. You want to go for a walk?" She smiled at me. I studied her face. There was no guilt or shame, just... kindness. Fuck, Ihated how nice she was. It was hard to hate her.She was going to let me down and I was about to thank her for the privilege.
"Sure, where to?" I offered her my arm, and she looped hers through mine.
"I don't know." She motioned around us. Camp was still populated with people partying. It would be until morning. "Is there any place that isn't within the prying eyes of park staff?"
"The park." I raised my shoulders. "You want to head over there?"
She jerked her head up in surprise. "This late?"
"I've got keys. Come on. Maybe I'll turn some rides on or something."
"I don't think my sister will like that." Despite that, she didn't change courses. We reached the parking lot full of golf carts, and I helped her into mine. She fiddled with her camera as I drove.
"You wanted to do a night shoot? It might be difficult with no lighting." I teased.
"No, just... it's a comfort thing."
"I've gathered that. I remember the camera back then. When you left." We'd never actually addressed that it was Koi and I who had watched her run away. "It's kind of neat to see that you held on to it all these years."
"I capture a lot behind the camera," she said flatly. The sentence was short and quick, but I heard the words she wasn't saying.
