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???
