I was going to kill every single one of my friends.
Publicly.
Violently.
Rowan was staring at me now with this look on her face like she didn’t know whether to laugh or interrogate me.
Unfortunately, both options were bad for me.
“You’re an asshole,” I told Jace.
“You’re obsessed,” he replied immediately.
Tessa nearly fell into Luca laughing.

Rowan was smiling now too.
Actually smiling at me.
Not teasing.
Not defensive.
Just amused.
Fuck.
I was in serious trouble.

“Oh, it absolutely is,” Tessa said.
Luca lifted his drink. “To Mason Reed experiencing human emotion.”
“Fuck off,” Mason muttered.
Jace was grinning like he’d just won the lottery. “No seriously, do you know how insane this is? This guy once left a date because she said astrology was ‘basically psychology.’”
“Thatisinsane,” Mason argued.
