Pepper eyed Brian curiously. How much had Adam told him? And if he hadn't told him anything, was Pepper allowed to tell? She somehow thought that she wasn't.
As the Them, Pepper had always sort of unofficially been Second-In-Command to Adam, and she'd always thought it was because they knew she'd beat them all up if they didn't allow it. But now she was beginning to wonder if Adam actually had always had a reason for allowing her just a little bit closer. Didn't mean much, and she still didn't really know a thing.
But maybe Brian shouldn't know.
"Yeah, it's gonna be great," she told him, trying to sound as sure of herself as possible. "I gotta car too, so we can all pile in and go to the beach. Adam said."
