“That’s exactly what I told her, bro.” Miles laughed, his obnoxiously loud caused few people to turn their heads. As soon as they have realized it’s Miles, they just rolled their eyes – everybody was so used to his over the top behavior. It was part of his charm. Unlike his siblings, who chose to hide in the shadows after the big scandal, Miles held his head up and showed his face in public. He still stood by his father even though he pretty much robbed everybody. Family was important to him, he was proud to be a Graham. 

Rory’s first year in New York had been nothing short of a whirlwind. She’d been living at home with her parents after she had dropped out of college before her senior year. Her parents were disappointed, annoyed, and barely spoke to her (when they were home), and Rory had found herself fairly aimless in where she wanted to go in her life, and it stayed that way for a bit over a year.

You know why I care. Don’t play dumb Rory.

“Since you’re so desperate to know -- No, I haven’t slept with ayone else recently. Can you say the same?”

“I am offended. I would never lie to you. And, by the way, you are amazing at math.”

“Nah, you can keep it. You seem too attached to it.” Hugh laughed. “And it looks better on you than it does on me anyway.”

“I really am, I like how long the sleeves are,” Rory admitted, showing him how the sleeves flopped over the ends of her hands. “Thank you, I appreciate the chivalry.”

“Awww Rory!” She smiled. “Thank you, thank you. I decide to embrace my natural hair colour for a while.”

“I had no idea you were naturally blonde!”

“Surprise! Did you like it? I decided to be blonde for a while.”

“Oh my goooooooood, you look so super cuuuuuute!”

“Oh, come on, if anyone could make it look good, you could.”

“No, I am not jealous. We both are single people.” Miles forces himself to lie. “I mean.. Have you slept with him recently?”

“Why do you care? I’m single.”

“That is the only exception i shall make. That and all the times I’ll be watching that movie. Not even for Pokemon Go I’ll leave again.”

“Holy shit, that’s serious talk.”

“Do you want to trade for one of my sweatshirts and have Juicy written across your tits?”

“I’m pretty sure we didn’t… Ugh, Miles.” Hugh shook his head. “He must have stolen it from me.”

“Well, um... Jesus Fuck, this is awkward. Erm, do you want it back?”

“Listen, it’s not my fault that they make men’s sweatshirts way more comfy than they make women’s.”

“I don’t think a semester wouldn’t be enough for it.”

“Well, I guess it will have to go on unsolved then.”

I am not jealous. Why would I be jealous?

“What? You’re not jealous that I’m wearing a sweatshirt that I stole from some other guy I’ve slept with?” Rory playfully taunted.

“Definitely. Too many people, it must be hard to find out, huh?”

“Oh god, it’s going to take me the entire semester to puzzle it out,” Rory said sarcastically.

“Hmmm that one is mine.”

“Oh god, I totally forgot bout that.”
