I smile mischievously.

“Not so loud, girlfriend! Lionel might hear you. But you know I changed pills recently, right? We were stuck in that transition time when I’d be fertile, and the men refused to use condoms. I mean, refused refused, Rosie. I thought guys were modern and evolved these days, but not Scott, Cross and Barrett. I couldn’t get them to use condoms no matter how much I pleaded and begged.”

“So you let them come in your ass instead,” she replies in a deadpan voice.

“Basically, yes,” I say in a cheery voice. “It felt sooo good to get three loads of spunk in my back door, and I was leaking like a waterfall. Literally my asshole was seeping for days and days because there was so much male cream.”

Rose shakes her head, her expression disbelieving.

“I don’t even know what to say, girlfriend,” she murmurs. “Holy shit, this is so crazy!”

“No, it’s not,” I reply with a wink. “Because I’ve signed you up for the next menage, so you’ll get to see for yourself.”

“The next what?” she sputters. “Excuse me?”

I shrug like nothing’s the matter.

“Well, I thought you might like to try it for yourself, Rosie. I mean, it was a lot of fun and the guys are super-hot. Scott, Cross, and Barrett look like Greek gods, and they’re interested in you too,” I say in a sly tone. “They think you’re real pretty.”

“Oh my god, you showed them my boudoir photos, didn’t you?” Rose squeals, covering her face with her hands. “Oh my god, oh my god!”

“I did,” I say in a cheery tone, “and they loved your snaps, Rosie. This is the opportunity of a lifetime! Grab it while it lasts! It’s like an Amazon lightning deal.”

Rose shakes her head.

“No, I can’t, Lils. It’s just not me.”

I give her a pointed look.

“Is it because you have a crush on someone? You’ve been acting so weird recently, and you dodge the issue whenever I bring it up.”

Rose goes bright red, but she shakes her head.

“No, there’s no one,” she lies through her teeth. “I just can’t see myself servicing three men, that’s all.”

“Rosie,” I warn. “I can see through your lies. I know you too well. This is me we’re talking about, and I know what you like and dislike. We’ve been friends for too long.”

My buddy sighs and hangs her head.

“Okay, I do kind of like someone, but he has no idea I even exist. It’s really sad. But that’s not even what’s stopping me. I need to work, Lils. You know we’re still in high school, and I have that ridiculous job at the roller rink. I don’t have the time or energy to hook up with random guys because I’m spraying used skates with deodorant while simultaneously taking orders for stale popcorn. I’m sorry, Lils. I really don’t have the time.”

I squint.

“But I thought your mom just got a new job, so why do you have to work so much? I know she was unemployed for a little, but that’s over now, right?”

Rosie nods, but her pretty features are pulled into a stressed out frown.

“Yes, but it’s not enough. I mean, my mom has a new job, but she was unemployed for about a year, so we racked up a lot of debt just trying to survive. We used credit cards to cover everything, Lils, including food, drinks, our rent, and even medical bills. Now, we’re mired in debt and I need to work to help my mom, Lils. I’m sorry. I’m sure those guys are great but?—”

I cut her off.

“But nothing,” I proclaim. “I have just the solution to your problem. Hold on.”

Then, I reach over and open my bedroom side table drawer. Inside are a bunch of smaller, sparkling diamonds that Lionel purchased from Abad. They’re supposed to be strung together into anal beads, but I don’t think my stepfather will mind if I give one to my friend. He’ll never even know it’s missing.

“Here,” I say triumphantly, holding up a sparkling gemstone. “Use this to get you through the hard times. It’s worth a lot, Rosie, and I don’t want you working your fingers to the bone. Sell this, and use the proceeds to pay your bills.”

Rosie squints through the screen.
