It was the third day in Cousin's. So far almost everything had been boring. The Caspians got down a few days early so no summer parties had even happened yet. The most exciting thing was Adrina's hookup with fuck boy, Jeremiah Fisher.
She hated to admit it but it was probably the best sex she's ever had. But they hadn't spoken since. She sent him away minutes after they finished and she'd barely seen him outside. But the first bonfire of the summer was that night, meaning that there was no way she wouldn't see him. She wasn't gonna be desperate, she was gonna make him come to her. She was blending up her morning smoothie. Mango, raspberries, and vodka. Another summer ritual she had picked up from her mother.
Axton gave a small head nod as he sat at the island. As the girl poured her spiked smoothie into a cup the boy began to roll a joint. Each Caspian child had their own way of coping, though neither was good it worked well enough for the twins.
He glared, watching the girl take a gulp from her smoothie. But within seconds the pair broke into laughter. Both quieted as their father walked down the stairs. Adrina stood in front of the bottle of vodka, putting on a fake smile. Acton stamped the joint and stuffed it into his pocket. He was going to one of his many mistresses. This place is a mess. A silence fell between the twins. It was always like that after any interaction with their father. Adrina finished the rest of her smoothie before grabbing the bottle of vodka.
The twins packed up their bags before rushing off to the club. They took their usual cabana by the poolside. It was the most fun they'd had in months. Whether it was paying off the bartender for drinks or sneaking behind the dumpster to take hits.
