Still, I shrug. "Eh, you're just okay. No Chris Hemsworth."
"You want to play with Thor's hammer, huh?"
"Oh my God, please do not tell me you're into that."
"I won't tell you." He wraps his fingers around my wrist. Pulls me toward the boardwalk. Hard. And fast.
Way, way too much information.
Gross.
So gross.
I try to push that mental image away as we cross the basketball court and approach a group of twenty-something girls, but it doesn't go.
Griffin in a blond wig and a red cape. Only a red cape. Pointing to his cock and whispering, ‘baby, you want to play with my hammer?'
That's so wrong.
And I'm so curious if he's as big as—
He had a reputation for being well-endowed. Not that I care. I totally don't care.
It's just, I like knowing if gossip is accurate.
In a sociological kind of way.
"Excuse me." Griffin steps forward. "My friend and I want to settle something."
A cute brunette bats her eyelashes. "Of course." She steps forward. Arches her back to show off her massive boobs.
Women are always like this with Griffin. It's the tattooed arms that do it. Or maybe the shoulders. Or the chest.
Griffin flashes a cheeky smile. "She says I'm just okay. I think I'm—"
"God's gift to women," I say.
"Men can enjoy beautiful men too," Griffin says.
The brunette giggles. "You don't think your boyfriend is cute?"
"He's not." I break our touch. Press my hand to my side. "We're just friends."
"Really?" She chews on her lower lip. Stares at me with disbelief.
Which is ridiculous. "Do you think he's hot or what?" I ask.
"Well, yeah." She gives Griffin a long, slow once-over. "But I'm not really into being a third wheel."
Griffin's eyes light up. His smile widens. "Damn, Jules. That ruins our plans. I was really hoping—what's your name sweetie?"
"Alex," she says.
"Was hoping Alex could watch us come together. Maybe another time, Alex." He winks, takes my hand, pulls me away.
"I hate you so much," I whisper under my breath.
"You should hate slower and move faster. The way she's watching—she's totally into it."
