Chapter Twelve

The next morning, Preston was a ball of nerves. He barely ate breakfast and drove like a maniac—even more so than usual. I thought I would tear the oh-crap handle from its spot above the passenger door on the way, but we made it to school alive.

Barely.

He turned to face me as we pulled into a spot. “Don’t forget to get a ride home today, since I’ll be staying late.”

I stared at him blankly as I tried to figure out what the heck he was talking about.

“Because basketball tryouts are today.” Preston sighed. “Please tell me you have a ride home today.”

“Totally.”

Preston shook his head. “Look, I know you made co-captain and all—”

“Wait, what? How did you hear that?” I shrieked. It hadn’t been made official yet.

He shrugged. “Veronica, obviously. But now that you made your team, it’s time for me to make mine. Senior Year Rematch is almost here, and I need to get my head in the game. I need you to find a ride home.”

“I have a ride home today,” I lied, fully intending to text Daria as soon as my brother was out of my sight. “I was just recovering from my life flashing before my eyes after you ran that red light.”

“Oh, good.” He paused. “And the light was yellow.”

“In your dreams.”

“Whatever. I’ll see you later, okay?”

“Yeah, see ya,” I answered, but he was already out of the car and on his way to the main building of the school.

I pulled out my phone and shot a quick text to Daria.

Charlie: Can you give me a ride after school?
