“With what?”
“Flynn and Lucas!”
“Lucas?” I sit
it up and stare at her. “You still haven’t apologised to Lucas?!”
“I have!” She states, throwing her hands in the air in exasperation. “I just–I wanna do something nice because I’m a terrible. person and I still feel really bad about everything!”
“You are a terrible person.” I agree and she glares at me.
“Thanks, Winnie.”
“You’re welcome.” I grin before continuing. “But to be fair, both you and Lucas fucked up there. You kicked him out of the closet, and he led you on.”
She opens her mouth to say something else but Kamri interrupts. “Do you know if Lucas likes anyone?”
“Uh. I’m not actually sure-”
“I do!”
They both look at me expectantly for a few moments, waiting for me to continue.
“Well?” Kamri asks, nudging me.
“What?”
“Are you going to tell us?” Octavia adds, tapping her foot impatiently.
“What’s in it for me?”
“Are you fucking ki–WINNIE!”
“Did he tell you in confidence or some shit?” Kamri questions, eyeing Octavia in amusement as she gets more annoyed.
“No, I went all Penelope Garcia and figured it out myself.”
“Penelope Garcia? Are you hyperfixating on Criminal Minds again?”
“Yes, I am. How’d you guess?”
“HELLO?!” We look over to Octavia who stares back at us in disbelief.
“What?”
“HELP ME!”
“Oh, right.” I clear my throat dramatically. “That guy from the party, freshman year. What’s his face, brown hair, green eyes,
um-

“Beau.” Kamari answers, snapping her fingers.
“Beau?” I repeat with a raiseil brow. “Does his last name happen to be Teep‘, and does he own any sheep?”
Kamri guffaws and Octavia bites her lips to hold back her own laughs.
“Alright, alright,” Octavia starts with a small sunile as Kamel calms down. “So what’s your idea?”
“I was thinking we get Lucas to go to prom with whoever he likes.” Kamri explains before turning to me, “So, Maori Penelope Garcia, think you can find out if Beau Peep likes guys?”
“Okay, first of all, duh. I can find out anything.” I point at her. “And twn, your’re hoth stupid. We already know Beau likes guys.”
They both stare at me in confusion.
“How the hell do we know that?” Octavia questions.
1 roll my eyes. “He literally slept with Laike at that party.”
Both of their eyebrows shoot so far up their foreheads they basically blend in with the hair.
“Lucas slept with Beau?! Kamri almost screams. “I thought he did it with that kid from our first semester Home Ec class!”
“Thomas?” I give her an offended look on behalf of Lucas. “Thomas is not his type.”
“oh”
“And Thomas tried didn’t work out because Beau swept in and saved Luke’s damsel ass before Thomas could try to flirt some more.” I recollect the events from the party. “Terrible flirting, by the way. On a scale of one to ten–brussel sprouts. I almost shoved my foot up his ass just to get him to stop talking for two seconds.”
“Okay,” Octavia nods. “So, Beau is bi? Because he had a girlfriend last year, if I’m not wrong
I take a piece of chocolate from the block that’s sitting on Kamri’s bedside table, popping it in my mouth. “Pansexual, actually.”
“How do you know that?” Kamri asks me.
“He told me.”
She gives me a look. “You’ve had a conversation with him, yet you didn’t know his name up until two minutes ago?”
I shrug. “Just because I talk to people, doesn’t mean I know their names.”
“Okaaayyy, anyway,” Octavia trails off, leaning back in the chair. “I just need to get Lucas and Beau to go to prom together?”
“Pretty much.” Kamri claps her hands together, shifting into a lying position.
“Are yo
you sure we should meddle?” I chew on the inside of my cheek.
both whin
Octavia and Kamri both whip their heads around to look at me and I swear they almost got whiplash.
“Bitch. I know you ain’t talking” Octavia scoffs, crossing her arms.
“Yeah, you meddle all the timer Kamri adds. “You locked Flynn
Flynn and Tavi in a room together
her two weeks ago!”
“Yeah, and look how that turned out!” I exclaim, throwing my hands out in front of me to emphasise my point. “Flynn hates

Octavia!”
“He hates me?!”
Oh, Lord.
“No, dumbass! I was exaggerating!” I yell at her. “He’s just slightly, very mad at you right now.”
“Oh my God. Winnie
“OKAY?” Kamri cuts us off before we can start arguing “Octavia, don’t meddle. We don’t need another shitshow. Just encourage him to ask Beau to prom. But don’t talk to Beau–don’t go near Beau at all, got it?”
“Got it.” Octavia nods, rolling the chair back and forth again. “Now, how do I nsk Flynn to prom and apologise at the same time? I need to fix things with him before I do something stupider and he ends up in a true crime documentary.”
1 snort. “Girl, you might as well make amends with the whole world while you’re at it.”
My sister doesn’t bother saying anything, she just flips me off.
Kamri shakes her head, laughing slightly before turning to me. “Winnie, you know Flynn best. Provide us with your wisdom.”
