MORE TIMES THAN SHE’D like to admit she found herself daydreaming. even in moments when she should have been paying attention in class she couldn’t help but find herself spacing out, mind replaying her first kiss. the sweaty palms, wiggly toes and butterflies that did acrobatics in her stomach. her breath getting caught in her chest and the brief second that their lips had met.

‘ nothing has to change today . ’

Silence fell between them and he stared up at the ceiling with Peri’s words hanging in his head. He hoped she was right. He, like so many of his friends and family, had been on house arrest awaiting trial. The day had finally come and he hoped that his crimes would be forgiven. After all, he was only a kid technically. “You don’t know that, so don’t say it, Peri. I just want to lay here, I don’t want to think about what happens today.” He got quiet again, his jaw set as the first sign of weakness or fear slipped through. “Just be in the seats, okay? That’s how you help me now.”

‘ i don’t wanna be lonely . ’

“No one wants to be lonely, but life sucks, doesn’t it?” He shrugged. He had learned a long time ago that loneliness was an inescapable part of life. Being at home with his parents but never feeling their presence was the worst type of loneliness, though he knew that wasn’t what Peri was referring to.He stared at her for a minute, his face impassive and emotionless as he tried to decide what move to make next. “Fine.” He sighed softly, scooting over in his bed and still showing very little emotion. “Just get in and go to sleep, Peri, I’m too tired for this.”
