THE ZOMBIE, FINGERNAIL PAINTING, CUPCAKE BIRTHDAY

Later, when the opening credits to Night of the Living Dead started, Gabriel pushed the coffee table a little further away from the couch. Luke put the box of cupcakes on the table and gathered candles from the bags they’d brought in. Nathan sat on the edge of the couch. I settled gently into a spot next to him, unsure of how to help or what to do.

Gabriel sat cross-legged on the carpet. He patted the spot in front of himself. “Come sit down here in front of me next to the table, Trouble. I don’t want to fuck up and get polish on the carpet.”

I slid down onto the carpet and knee-walked over until I was kneeling by the coffee table. He gestured to me and I planted my hand on the table between us.

Gabriel picked up my hand, tilting it. The fingernail polish shimmered in the overhead light. “I don’t know where to start.”

“Just paint over the old polish,” Luke said.

“Take off the stuff,” Nathan said. He stretched out on the couch, stuffing one of the couch pillows under his head.

“I’ll take it off the forefingers if that’ll get you to shut up about it,” Gabriel said.

“Yes. Do that.”

Gabriel fished out a bottle of nail polish remover and a bag of cotton balls. He got up and planted himself next to me, facing the television. He patted his thigh. “I think you should sit in my lap. You’ll be able to watch the movie and I can see better.”

I crawled over and Gabriel hooked me around the waist. I faced forward, my back pressed to his chest. “Like this?”

He adjusted under me, reconsidered, and then pushed me until I was sitting on the floor between his legs. “Perfect,” he said. He picked up my right hand, looking over my shoulder at it. He released it long enough to dig in the bag. “Let me just pop one of these open. I want to see something.” He found a polish bottle and removed the wrapping, cracking open the top to remove the brush. “Hold your finger up, Trouble.”

I held up my hand, my fingers spread out. Even with trying to sit still, my hands were shaking.

“Stop moving,” Gabriel pointed the brush at my nail.

“It’s not going to work like that,” Luke said. “She shakes too much.”

Gabriel groaned. “Okay, slide off a second.” He returned the brush and popped me on the thigh. I climbed off. He sat opposite me at the coffee table. “Put your hand down flat.”

“Here,” Luke said. He picked me up and planted me in his lap, scooting close to the table. I placed my palm on the table in front of Gabriel.

Gabriel groaned. “Ah, hey, you just told me it wasn’t going to work so you could get her.”

“Yeah,” Luke said. He wrapped his arms around my waist, squeezing a little.

Gabriel flicked him a perturbed glare. He cracked open the polish bottle and held the brush to my fingertips. He hesitated as a dollop of color hovered over my nails.
