The vending machine takes the crumpled dollar bill Phoebe feeds it, then
immediately spits it back out. Phoebe huffs, taking the bill and flattening it
against the thigh of her spandex shorts.
“Don’t let me down now,” she murmurs as she tries once more.
When the dollar isn’t smugly returned, Phoebe pumps both hands above
her head in victory. She jams her index finger against buttons with only
vague outlines of C and 4 left after years of use, and peanut M&Ms
plummet to the bottom of the machine.
“How many blues in this bag?” she asks her brother, Teddy, who always
times his break at the front desk for when Phoebe is between personal
training clients.
Teddy picks at the chipped top of the lone table in the break room, legs
splayed wide like that will make him taller. “What do I get if I win?”
“I’ll share ’em with you,” Phoebe says. “If I win, you buy my next bag.”
“Is that just because you’re out of cash?”
He isn’t wrong—she’d had to dig through her drawstring bag, thinking
all hope was lost until she found a bill in the bottom corner.
“It’s because it’s an equal bet,” Phoebe says, then admits, “Or, well, it
can be because of two things.”
Teddy used to be her Mini-Me, before he’d chopped his hair and
changed his name. Not that it affected too much—no one could look at their
flaming red hair and fully freckled faces and think they’re anything but
siblings. Teddy leans into the messiness of their matching hair, always
looking like he’s just rolled out of bed, but somehow managing to pull it
off. (At least Phoebe knows she’ll look good if she ever decides to cut hers
and go butch.)
“Ten,” Teddy says. “And if I win, you take me to New Orleans with
you.”
“That seems like awfully high stakes for a bet about M&Ms.”
It’s better than Teddy’s usual bet, though, which is to make Phoebe wash
his binder. He always waits until after working out to collect, the asshole.
Still, she’d take him with if she could. Her only reservation about
heading to Louisiana at the end of the month is how far she’ll be from her
family. College was one thing—Mapleton was close enough to bring her
laundry home. Moving to NOLA will be her first time living outside of
Indiana in her twenty-two o years.
On the table, Phoebe’s phone rings with a shrill melody. She got it out of
her locker earlier to scroll TikTok during the half hour she waits for her
next client to arrive. It’s weird to have this long of a break between clients.
Throughout college, she always scheduled an entire day of back-to-back
sessions to make the thirty-minute drive from Mapleton worth it. Plus, it’s
the first week of January, when the gym is still full of people yet to give up
on their resolutions. Phoebe typically shoots for 100 percent retention of
