Sides

"As in unlocked or wide open?" Chloe snapped in irritation.

"Wide open…" Gabriel told her evenly. Chloe huffed crossing her arms over her chest and glaring at him.

"You kids need to learn to shut a door. All sorts of unsavory individuals might wander in." Chloe told her daughter eyeing Gabriel with disdain.

"Sorry mom, we were two busy dancing with you clowns." Megan laughed.

Sam wrapped his arms around her from behind then rested his face in the hair on her shoulder. Gabriel scowled at the pair causing Afton to raise an eyebrow at his friend.

"What did you expect?" Afton asked Gabriel seriously.

"I didn't expect them to purposefully throw it in my face. They are going out their way to bait me." Gabriel snapped.

"We're not. This is just normal behavior. No one in this house makes their decisions based on how you will feel about it." Megan told Gabriel calmly.
