“Blair… what are you doing here?”
Blair looked between us confused, which told me she hadn’t heard what I’d said, thank fuck.
“Rylee said you two were wasted and screaming, and asked me to come get you,” Kaia answered.
Blair scowled, looking between us. “What is wrong with you two, fighting in the middle of a bar?! What is going on?”
“Don’t come in here acting all high and mighty. When were you going to tell me you were fucking her?!” Cara stammered out, pointing at me.
Blair blinked. “What… What are you talking about?”
I turned to Kaia. “Why the hell would you bring her here?!”
Kaia frowned and opened her mouth, but Cara interrupted. “Don’t change the subject. When were you going to tell me you two had been fucking for months? Everywhere, according to Drea. I cannot believe she was there the night I stopped by, and you hid it from me!”
“Cara, I’m so?—”
“I’m supposed to ask what strap she uses, but I really don’t need to know that. And Idefinitelydon’t need to know the sounds you make.”
Blair gaped at me, darkness in those once soft hazel eyes. “Are you serious?!”
Cara shook her head. “I can’t believe you, Blair! I expected this from Drea, but not from you. I really thought you had more self-respect than this.”
“Excuse me? What is that supposed to mean?” I glared at Cara, trying to ignore the anger in Blair’s eyes while my own was boiling to the surface.
“It means that fucking around and disrespecting the people who care about you is kind of your thing. Look what happened to Skylar. She?—”
“That was a long time ago, and this is different.”
“Different?” She scoffed. “Please, you’re still the same person you were when Skylar dumped you. Crawling into anyone’s open bed. I just didn’t think Blair would be stupid enough to fall for it, but I guess desperation can get the best of us some?—”
“That is enough! You can say what you want about me, but you will not disrespect Blair!” I stood up and took a step closer. I was seconds away from putting my hands on someone I had respected for so long.
“Like you didn’t just do the same thing, Drea! Honestly, you are such a?—”
“Drea, you know I love you, but you guys need to go,” Rylee said in a polite but authoritative voice.
“We were just leaving,” Kaia spoke out, grabbing me by the hand while Blair tried to get Cara.
“Don’t fucking touch me. I don’t know where that hand has been. I’m going! Goodnight, Rylee!”
“Sorry, Rylee,” Kaia said apologetically.
Once we got outside, Blair refused to even look in my direction. “Blair, please look at me,” I pleaded. This whole night had just taken a twisted turn.
“Kaia, can you please take me home?” she said, completely ignoring me.
“Of course. We can get your bag from the store on the way. Cara, do you need a ride?”
She scoffed. “With those two? Not a chance. I’ll find my own ride.”
“Cara, can we?—”
“No, Blair, we can’t! I don’t even have the words for how angry I am. You’ve been going behind my back and lying to me for months?! Do you have any idea how that makes me look, how that makesyoulook? Were you really out of town when I wanted to get together, or were you two having a fuck fest?!”
Blair blushed and sighed. “Iwasout of town… at Fallon and Mackenzie’s wedding.” She winced.
“They know too?! This is insane!”
