“What exactly were your Christmas wishes?” asked Silas.
“That there would no longer be homo things happening under this roof.”
I tried to hide my laugh.
Mr. Frost leaned closer and I could feel his hot breath in my ear. “It’s not funny.”
“It’s a little funny,” I whispered.
“I told you she was inappropriate.”
“I think she’s amazing.”
He smiled down at me. “I think you’re amazing.”
I knew it was just pretend. But it felt good to be appreciated again. Even if it was fake.

“The boys used to share a room growing up,” said Adriana as she sat down on the bed next to mine. “So I had the silly idea that they could share again. And that we could share. So that we could get to know each other. A slumber party of sorts.”
“Yeah, of course.” I stared at the bathroom door in horror. So Silas was in that other room too. It could have easily been him in the shower.... But no. He wouldn’t have done that. Right?
“So what is Xander like behind closed doors?” she asked. “I’m so used to him being stuffy.”
I pictured him in the shower. It was definitely my Mr. Frost. Not hers. It had to be. “Very domineering.”
Adriana laughed. “I should have guessed. Silas is the same way.”
Yikes.
She laughed again. “It’s so strange dating twins. Sometimes I see Xander and almost kiss him by accident. Luckily they have a few different mannerisms.”
“Have you ever accidentally gone through with it? The accidental kiss?”
“Of course not!”
“Right.”
Adriana filled me in about how she and Silas had met. It seemed like a whirlwind romance. It reminded me of always hearing about Rosalie’s latest flings. Actual hanging out with her like this reminded me of hanging out with Rosalie when we were in high school.
“And I got in so much trouble,” Adriana said. “It was like a pre-bachelorette party thing.”
“Pre-bachelorette party?” I asked. Was that a weird rich person thing?
She shrugged. “Maybe it was technically more of an engagement celebration with friends. I don’t know. It got completely out of hand. And I didn’t know fucking strippers was against the rules.”
Now she sounded like Chastity. I smiled.
“So I had to give Silas a free pass. But you don’t actually think he’ll use it, do you?”
“Um...no?”
She nodded. “I agree. As long as I keep him satisfied. Which is why I brought this.” She pulled a sexy elf costume out of her bag. “You need to dress up too. I want to surprise the boys.”
“Oh...I’m not sure that is a good idea.” What if ithadbeen Silas in the bathroom earlier? That meant my Mr. Frost hadn’t done things to me. And it meant he certainly didn’t want a sexy surprise...
“Come on. Please. It’ll be fun.” She stood up and started changing. “I’m so excited to finally have a sister.”
