"I don't keep cash around," Ashton blew out a breath. "But I — I can raid the party funds, just as long as I have it back before anyone checks…"
"That's your business," Logan shrugged. "Otherwise, I'll list them online tomorrow, and you'll have to take your chanceswith the rest of the sneakerheads. You willing to risk the L? Or nab yourself a guaranteed win?"

Good Causes
"What about theBreak Low's Oz is wearing?" Noah asked quickly.
"Four hundred going twice — "
"What about 'em?" Logan replied, distracted as he held up his hand and flashed a four, then a five at the auctioneer.
"Four fifty! Four fifty to the gentleman in the back. How exciting, folks! Now, do I have a five, a five, a five — Yes, sir!"
Damn it. It was Noah's dad again, holding up five fingers as he frowned at something on his phone.
Glancing up, Logan met Noah's smug expression with a glare just in time to catch Noah switching his phone off.
"What d'ya say?" Noah asked, gesturing up at where Oz stood on the auction block, wearing a perplexed and slightly dazed expression on his face. "Two hundred enough for your boyfriend's honor? Or would you rather keep the kicks?"

There was a beat, and then —
"Six…hundred," the auctioneer murmured, peering around the room. "Son, are you sure? That's quite a lot of money at your age."
"He's worth every bit of it," Logan said, fighting to keep from looking over at Oz, fearing he'd only find him wearing a furious expression. "And it's, um… It's for a good cause." Logan shrugged.
"Oh, uh… Yes, it certainly is," the auctioneer agreed, obviously flustered. "Well then! Six hundred to beat. Do I hear seven hundred?"
Logan swore as Noah's dad waved at the auctioneer again, his ear pressed to his phone.
"Who's he talking to?" Noah muttered.
"Seven hundred going once — "
