Fourteen

My phone rings as Tess and I head over to the treadmills. She likes to lift, I like to run, so we each do both. Together. That’s what friends are for, right?

I glance at the screen as I straddle the treadmill, feet on the sides. Beside me, Tess glances my way, curious.

Riley’s name lights up on the screen. I think about not taking it. I don’t want to deal with Benji’s drama. Not tonight. He’s probably pissed I’m not getting on a damn plane with him tomorrow, but that’s not really my problem.

Come to think of it though, it’s not really Riley’s either, so maybe that’s not even why she’s calling.

I sigh, accept the call, and hold the phone to my ear, plugging my other ear with my finger so I’ll be able to hear her over the music in the gym.

“Ava? I’m sorry to bother you,” she says in a rush, “but Benji is...” I roll my eyes, not really caring what Benji is. It’s pretty clear Benji is giving her shit for me telling him No. It’s like he’s never heard the word before.

“He’s not okay,” Riley finally says.

My heart stutters in my chest. “What?” I ask, frowning. What exactly does that mean? I’d argue Benji hasn’t been okay for a while but I don’t think that’s what she means.

In the background, I hear him laughing. Manically.

“What’s going on?”

“Can you come to my place?” she sounds frantic, but also apologetic. “He’s high...and...I dunno. I think it’d be better if you were here.”

For fuck’s sake. I glance at Tess, who is still eyeing me as she walks slowly for her warmup on the treadmill.

I don’t want to go. But for Riley’s sake...I don’t think she has anyone else she can call.

“I’ll be right there.”
