"He only ties me up sometimes," Lilah mumbles.
Jazz spins midstep, squealing. "I knew it!"
Lilah turns beet red before giggling. "Can we please stop talking about my sex life now?"
"Hell no. Unless and until one of us is getting tied to the bed and railed regularly, you're the only one here who has a sex life," Jazz retorts. "Who else are we going to talk about? Loralei doesn't even have a sex life."
I do not miss the way Sarah turns red, fidgeting.
"Olive could have a sex life," she mutters when she catches me staring at her.
Dammit. She's playing dirty.
Lilah and Jazz immediately turn to look at me.
"Was your hot neighbor back again?" Lilah asks me.
"Hot neighbor? What hot neighbor?" Jazz wants to know.
"He was," Sarah says, smirking at me. "He asked her out. Guess what she said?"
"Hold the phone!" Jazz cries, stomping her foot. "When did she get a hot neighbor? Why am I always the last to know thes things?"
"Because you haven't been here?"
"I've been at the library, helping Loralei."
"Badgering her into helping you run the book club is not helping, Jazz," Lilah retorts.
Jazz just waves her off, pointing at me. "Spill."
"Uh…"
"He moved in last weekend," Sarah says when I don't answer fast enough. "He's been coming here to see her."
"He might be a serial killer," I quickly add before Jazz can join the hate train heading my way.
"What the fuck?"
"He is not a serial killer," Lilah says, spluttering laughter. "He just likes you, Olive."
"See?" Sarah crosses her arms, smirking at me. "Told you."
"What did she say when he asked her out?"
"She is right here," I complain, but they completely ignore me.
"She told him that she has to wash her hair."
Judging by the way they gasp, Lilah and Jazz are scandalized.
"You didn't!" Lilah groans.
"See previous statement about him being a serial killer," I mutter, turning to straighten books on the shelf behind me. "I cannot date a serial killer, Lilah."
"So…find out if he's a serial killer," Jazz suggests.
This time, Sarah groans. "Do not encourage her! She's already planning a stakeout."
