Chapter 25: It was a Test?

Trey passes a similar tall, but green mug to Finn. "She passed, man. You two have a nice night. I'm out," then he turns on his heels and heads toward the front of the store. The bell dings as he makes his exit.

I close my mouth, but it soon falls open again. Finn eyes me and hesitates with his next comment.

I decide to beat him to the punch. "It was a test?" I'm not even positive what his words mean, but I'm pretty sure I have a right to be pissed here. We've been back together for less than twenty-four hours and he's testing me. What. The. Hell?

Finn's face falls, and his lips part slightly in shock. "Oh no. What did Trey do?"

I give Finn the rundown of what happened between Trey and me while he was gone. I expect indignation or anger, but when I finish, he leans back letting a short sigh escape. "You have to understand he's rather protective of me. My friends don't want to see me get hurt again."
