Page 80 of Fake Shot

Audrey

You good?

Jules

I’m great, why?

Audrey

This is seeming less and less fake each time I see you together.

Jules

You want my honest response?

Audrey

Always.

Jules

It’s feeling less and less fake the more time we spend together.

Audrey

Are you sleeping with him?

I can feel the alcohol coursing through my blood. Not enough that I’m drunk, but enough that my filter is fading fast. It’s the only reason I’m honest with her.

Jules

Not yet.

Audrey

Are you sure this is the path you want to go down with him?

I barely stop myself from making a joke about going down on him.

Jules

We’ll see.

Audrey’s gaze flicks over to the bar, then back to her phone.

Audrey

Are you having a third drink?

She knows about my two-drink limit, and it’s the same one she has. Not because she’s had a bad drinking experience like I have, but because with our family history, she doesn’t want to tempt fate.

Jules

Yeah. Colt said he’d make sure I’m safe and don’t make any bad decisions if I wanted to have more than two, and I’m taking him up on the offer.

Audrey

Who’s going to keep you safe from HIM???
