***

When Shannon crept into the cabin before dawn, I’d slept only a little and what I had captured was troubled and slippery. How many days had we been here? I couldn’t even keep track anymore. I was surprised when Shannon tip-toed to the side of my bed and whispered my name.

“You’re awake?” she asked.

“Yeah. Look at you, sneaking home before dawn. Are congratulations in order?”

I slid over in the already tiny bed and she crawled in next to me. We were nose to nose on our sides and I could just make her out in the dim moonlight. She smelled like wet earth and moss. Like her brother’s bed. The thought cracked something in my chest.

She sighed and nuzzled her nose into my pillow. “He was so gentle. I could have spent all night with him. Afterwards we walked through the trees all the way to the ocean. We didn’t want to go back to the cabin in case you and Cole…”

“Oh, no. No. I didn’t meet him. Not that he isn’t very pretty, but…anyway. You harlot. Tell me everything.”

She laughed and lowered her voice as if there were a hundred people listening just outside the windows. “I like sex. I’ve really wasted a lot of time holding out. He’s so pretty, Jess. He’s got these spaces between his belly button and thighs that are just so…wow.”

I smiled. I knew exactly the spot she meant. Wow indeed. “Is this a one-time thing or should I expect you late every night?”

“Every night, I hope. We’re going for a run in the morning on the beach before breakfast. He runs. Of course he does.”

“Did you tell him you don’t run?”

“No, I didn’t have the heart.” I laughed, she sighed. “Our babies will be beautiful.”

“Where does he go to school?”

“California, like, the other side of the world from us. I’m going to run away to L.A. You can come with me. We’ll live wantonly, get jobs dancing in places with poles. I’ll call you Trixie North and you’ll call me Stella Lee.”

As sad as I was feeling, as embarrassed and small and unwanted, this made me smile. I thought maybe I could do anything if Shannon went with me. “Deal. Who needs college anyway? It’ll be just you and me, Stella.”

“You and me, Trixie.” After a moment she said, “I’m sorry you and Cole didn’t work out.”

“Well.” How could I tell her I’d spent the night with her brother? The brother who seemed to hate every minute of this place? “You know me. I’ve got more issues than either of us want to deal with in less than two weeks and it’s not like I can hide from him here when he finds out I won’t let him touch my breasts.”

She leaned in, touched her forehead to mine. How many whispered conversations had we had like this in the last two years? If she left the dorms I didn’t know what I’d do. “You shouldn’t be so hard on yourself, Jess. You’re beautiful and the first boy who makes you see that will win my favor forever.
