CEO engaged

. The walls. The roof. The floor. Some parts were frozen, while others gave the impression of some kind of funhouse. It has to be the coolest place I've ever seen. "It's cool," Darby said. "Haven'

bout the incidents?" GQ asked. I sighed. "How about you start talking in real sentences that make sense, instead of riddles," I suggested. GQ's eyes turned to me with a frown. "You should shut up and let me be the boss," he said. I shrugged. "I'm impatient, set in my ways, and not a girl you can push around," I told him honestly. "I grew up in a single-parent household.

"When Gibson and I were fifteen," he said, "we snuck into the Apache." "And..." I pushed. "And," Darby continued, "we crawled over the gate, walked to the closest spot we could get without being seen, and then started watching a porn movie while people in cars had sex next to us." My jaw dropped as if I couldn't understand the words that came out of his mouth. "Sorry, what?" "The Apache is an adults-only drive-in the
