Cameron

We were in Avery’s room.

Marshall

Then there’s no P.R. spin needed. On your own time, in a private space, you’re a normal guy. Roommate accidents happen.

Oh no.

Hammy. Is this about that thing on SportsEye?

Hayden

I thought we were talking about Cam getting some. Good job, Cam. Tell us all about it.

Marshall

Oh buddy, that’s why you don’t like what you hear this week.

Hayden

I don’t know what you’re talking about.

Cameron

Paging @DaleGellar, you were waiting for this, Chipperoni.

Dale sent him the link two days before, and Cam’s temples pulsed with annoyance every time he thought about the unflattering photos and the damning article that accompanied them. If that was the comparison, he was obviously on the right side of things. Hayden had a right to a private life as much as he did, but the parallels diverged when that private life splashed on a college sports gossip site looked as self-indulgent as Hayden himself.

Dale

Is it true?

Hayden

Beats me. I’m taking Cory’s excellent advice and not reading anything on the internet anymore.

Cory

What’s on SportsEye?

Marshall

Cameron

Avert your eyes. His shirt’s about three sizes too small.

Cory

Doggone it, Hayden. Seriously? SERIOUSLY?

Hayden

Thanks for telling Dad, you guys.
