Chapter 97 Can't Screw Up

• Do you want to know what made that night even better than just "good"? It was accidentally overhearing the conversation between Riley and Max in the middle of the night while I was on my way to the kitchen for a cup of water. Okay, I admit, overhearing it at first was accidental, but my choice to continue eavesdropping when I heard who the conversation was about was entirely intentional. I couldn't help it; it had me grinning like a fool.
• From behind the wall, I saw Max nod slowly, turning to look at his sister.
• "She's known everything since February. But right before we started dating, we shared some things we didn't already know about each other. I told her about you and mentioned my past, which I couldn't reveal right away. But she understood and let me share the rest when I was ready. The time to tell her came sooner than I thought, but at that moment, I knew it was now or never."
