I waste nearly an hour getting caught up with Morgan on Facebook. Someone’s posted some funny pictures of Jack and his friends in his hospital room. Morgan and I discuss which essay question we’re going to pick for our English assignment. We have to analyze one of three soliloquies from Shakespeare’s Hamlet—the “To be or not to be” speech, or one by Hamlet’s father’s ghost, or one by Polonius. I haven’t decided yet. Then Morgan asks me about Kip. I was afraid of that.

“OMG! SOOO QT!” she writes. Then she tells me Brittany is SOOO jealous and I’d better keep an eye on him. I have to tell her that it’s not serious between us, we’re just friends.

With benefits, I hope.

No, I write back. Not likely, I add.

Maybe the best way to get over losing Matthew. Take advantage of Kip. Not in a bad way. Just have some fun. Just saying.

I answer that I don’t think I could do something like that.

Sucks to be you, then. And she adds a smiley face.

When it’s time for bed I turn out the light, but I sit back up in the pitch-dark and decide that tonight I’ll leave my desk lamp on. I lie down and consider what Morgan said. I think about the look on Kip’s face just before he kissed me. His smile was so gentle. Could he have feelings for me? But no. He’s just doing what he does best.
