CHAPTER 7

Only like, a moment after Luke leaves, there is a knock at my bedroom door. (So I know it’s not Renee—you know, cuz the person knocked.)

It’s Ally!!!!!

ALLY!!!!

I hug her tight, tight, tight. It’s only been a week since I saw her last, but still—Ally! Yay!!!

She makes my heart feel all warm and happy.

Ally brought Destiny with her though, so sad-face. (Not that I don’t love Destiny, but Ally is my best friend and now is living in another state—three hours away—so I’d like to have her all to myself.) But I’m sure Ally brought Destiny along as a nice surprise for me. (Ally doesn’t realize Destiny is annoying.) (Ally is oblivious to all things mean.)

“I heard you went back to school today,” Ally says, hugging me again, like she’s worried about me. She kept driving up to see me when I was, you know, comatose. Now I think she’s like Luke, a little worried I’m just going to up and go coma-girl again. Everyone keeps acting that way. (It’s kind of nice actually.)

“I brought you cookies to celebrate,” Ally says. “But they’re in your kitchen—I didn’t want to bring them upstairs in case Renee caught me on the way.”

Renee eats all of Ally’s baking treats. (Ally is a baker, big time.) (Renee is a hog.) (Big time.)

“I hid them in the cupboard with the plates,” Ally says. She eyes me worriedly. “Is Jonah still freaking you out?”

I nod, then glare at Destiny. Since, you know, she gave Jonah permission to totally invade my life. (I didn’t want to be locker-partners with Destiny in the first place—now you can see why. The girl is not right in the head…. Maaaan, she makes me miss Ally.)

I grit my teeth, “Destiny let him be my locker partner.”

Ally gasps. “No way!”

Destiny puts her hands on her hips. Then she goes on like she can defend herself—which she totally can’t. The truth simply is, Jonah is hot. And Destiny is a sucker for a hot guy. Any hot guy. Even a psycho stalker one. As has now been proven.

“What?!” Destiny says, looking all defensive. “He’s CUTE. And he obviously likes Jazz. And for once she doesn’t have a boyfriend hanging on her. So why not give Dreamy Jonah a chance?”

“Because he’s Stalker Jonah,” I growl.

“Wait! Shh,” Ally hushes us in the middle of our arguing, waving her hands around crazily for us to be quiet.

(?????)

She tilts her head, then gasps.

She breathes out all anxious-like, “Griffin’s here.”

Before I can register what she’s saying, she dashes for my closet. And hides!!!

I blurt out in astonishment, “What?!”

She’s truly lost her marbles. Seriously. Apparently, being forced away from Griffin has not only broken her sweet little Ally heart, but also her poor little Ally mind.

“Ally,” I inform her, “Griffin’s never been to my house in his life! I don’t even think he knows where I live.”

“He’s here,” she whispers. “I can hear his footsteps coming up the stairs. I can’t see him, Jazz! I can’t! I’m not ready. My heart—it will melt and explode and I’ll die.
