He took a breath. "And at any rate, what's going on with you, and Chris, and the ex? What have I just walked into? What do I need to kick around? What else are we very much using Adam as distraction bait on so Lils doesn't find out?"
Sorry, Adam. Teddy kind of likes you, too, but he's not above using you to have some privacy. Not above it at all. At least you get to make out with a hot girl.
