"Please, tell me where he is," Becky pleaded.

Finn rolled his eyes at her. An entire month had passed like this where she would show up at random times, either begging or demanding to see Seth.

"For the last time, Becky, I don't know where he is. He left a month ago after we cleaned his house," he said.
"You know. I know you know," she said. "From one Irish man to another. You gotta help me."

He laughed and shook his head. It didn't matter where they were from. He was not going to sell out Seth.

"Maybe if you come clean about who you slept with and have him play the role as your child's father like he's supposed to," he said.
"I didn't sleep with anybody else," she said.
"Then you won't mind having a paternity test done," he said.
"Fuck you!" She growled.
"Alas, my dear. I will never fuck you. You're not worth the trouble," he smirked.

Her jaw dropped and she was lost for words. She turned around, got back in her car, and drove away. He locked up the house, got into his car, and drove to Kellie's place.

"What's up?" Kellie asked.
"Becky stopped by," Finn sighed. "Again."
"I'm sorry," Seth said.
"It's not your fault. She's desperate though. She's seven months pregnant and wants you on the same page as her before it's too late," Finn said.
"That will never happen," Seth said.
"Call your lawyer," Finn said.
"Why?" Seth asked.
"Because you need to get ahead of this whole situation. Before you find yourself listed on the birth certificate as that child's father. You need to get a paternity test done as soon as that child is out of her vagina," Finn said.

Kellie chuckled at her brother's choice of words. He grinned back at her. Seth nodded.

"You're right. I'll call Monday morning," Seth said.
"And tonight we party," Kellie said.
"Why do we always party whenever Becky shows up and does crazy things?" Seth asked.
"To get your mind off things, and to show you the world of wonderful women waiting for you," Kellie said. "And because of the great news. Have you told him yet?"

Seth looked at Finn with a huge smile on his face.

"I sold my house," Seth said.
"Really? That's fucking awesome," Finn said.
"They offered below what I wanted but I don't care. It's still enough. They'll take over next month, and there's no way Becky can keep dreaming of us going back there to live together again. Not in that house and not anywhere else," Seth said.
"That's great. That is a good reason to celebrate," Finn said. "Come on, you two. I crave something with vodka right now."


Seth kept his eyes on Kellie while she was talking with a latina across the room. As always, Kellie had made him point out a woman he was interested in, and she had gone straight over to the woman to butter her up and tell her about her amazing, single friend.

"She's good," Finn said. "She sometimes helps me too."
"Do you ever help her back?" Seth asked.
"She doesn't need it. She's not shy or anything. One time I witnessed her walk straight up to a guy and ask him to fuck there or to go. Like she was ordering fastfood. It was so funny," Finn said.

Seth laughed at that image. He wasn't even surprised that Kellie would do something like that.

"And you know, it worked," Finn said. "She got laid that night."

Seth's laughter stopped. It was hard imagining Kellie with another man. He felt jealous. He would never deny her love or sex, but it still hurt even though she had no idea.

"And she took the bait," Finn said.

Seth watched as Kellie crossed the floor with the latina.

"This is Seth," Kellie held out her hand towards Seth. "And this is Bayley. She's also newly single and is only looking to fuck."
"Kellie!" Finn laughed.
"What?" Kellie shrugged. "Play with open cards so that no one gets the wrong idea."

Bayley sat down next to Seth and started talking. Kellie looked over at Finn, winked at him, and walked back to the bar to order another drink. Finn got up and walked over to his sister.

"Are you okay with this?" He asked.
"Of course," she answered. "Why wouldn't I be?"
"Because it's Seth," he said.
"So?" She asked.
"Come on. You can't fool me. You never could," he said.

She looked over at Seth who was deep in conversation with Bayley.

"It's all good," she smiled at her brother. "It's just a silly crush. I know we're never meant to become a couple. I'd rather help him get over Becky and be happy than be some other crazy woman in his life. He doesn't need that."
"Have you ever tried asking him what he needs?" He asked.
"That's your job. Bro code and all," she grinned. "Let's have a shot and then sneak out of here without him noticing. He'll turn up tomorrow once his dick has gotten wet enough."
