Eventually, Holden is no longer able to contain his feelings, and confesses his love to Alyssa. She is initially angry with him, but that night, the two begin a romantic relationship.This new development worsens the tension between Holden and Banky, who hates and mistrusts Alyssa and is disturbed by her and Holdens relationship. Banky investigates and uncovers dirt on Alyssas past, and he reports to Holden that Alyssa participated in a threesome with two guys during high school, which gave her the nickname Finger Cuffs. Holden is deeply upset by this revelation, having previously believed that he is the first man Alyssa had ever slept with. He angrily confronts Alyssa while attending a hockey game, and clumsily attempts baiting her into confessing. During a tearful argument, she tells Holden about her many youthful sexual experimentations. She apologizes for letting him believe that he was the only man she had been with. However, she refuses to apologize for her past, and Holden leaves feeling disillusioned and furious. ........
