Chapter 45: It's Unavoidable
Max turned and scratched the back of his neck, as he always did when he was nervous.
"Sorry guys, I guess it will just have to be us three for now," Max said awkwardly. Feeling very much the third wheel.
The guys nodded. But then Sam piped up eagerly.
"You should go after him... See if he needs help."
Evan jabbed Sam in the stomach.
"Owe"
Max turned back and the two of them just smiled, Sam was trying to hold or pull Evan's hand off Sam's stomach. Max quirked his head, intrigued.
Sam pulled Evan's hand upwards as hard as he could to make it rest on his tummy as the moment Max had turned to watch Leo walk away Evan had tried to slip his hand down to grab Sam's junk.
Evan was feisty today, and he wasn't sure what had made Evan so playful all of a sudden, in front of their friends too. But he tried to control the animal who was trying to do dirty things in public again.
The two of them grinned. Evan naughtily, and Sam as if he were trying to hide something from Max.
