Integrity.

She was also incredibly nice, and turned out I liked that about her. A lot.

Go fucking figure.

“I never would’ve pegged you for a George Michael fan,” she said.

I glanced up. She was still standing in the living room, watching me as Summer’s music played.

“I’m not.”

I went back to my phone, and finally I heard her get back to work. Summer had texted again, asking for my playlist.

Me:Working on it

Me:Do I have you or Dylan to thank for the photo of my mom?

Summer:That was me. You like?

Me:Yeah I like

Summer:Good. How r things with new girl? Danica…

Summer:Love her name by the way. Sounds like a snack.

Me:You talked to her on the phone?

Summer:Yeah. She’s adorable.

Me:Shes here now, hanging pictures

Me:Jesus what is this music

Summer:What?

Me:Your playlist

The song had switched and I checked to see what was playing.

I glanced over at Danica. She was in the front hall, and I could just see her ass twitching to the beat as she hung the concert photo.

Me:This song is called Throb. You trying to get me laid?

Summer:Is it working?

She punctuated that with a devil face emoji.

Me:I took your advice and went alpha rock star on her the other night. In a bar. Backfired, baby

Summer:Maybe you were doing it wrong.

Another devil face emoji.

Me:Think I scared her

Summer:Why?

I sighed and considered how to put it.
