“Sea? Sea?” I pause, listening for her breathing. “Are you asleep?” The room is dark and Sea and I are in our sleeping bags lying on the floor in my bedroom, head to head. I was talking about visiting my dad last weekend as a kind of lead-in to the Talk. I thought we could have a heart-to-heart about this fake boyfriend stuff now that we’ve had this nice familiar night and it’s dark and she can’t see my face and I can’t see hers to know if she’s mad or what. And if either of us cries, the other won’t know. But now she went and fell asleep. Well. She knows the rules of First to Sleep. Of course, we didn’t say we were playing First to Sleep tonight, but it’s been a pretty typical thing at our sleepovers so Sea should know better.

I sit up on my knees and begin to rummage through Sienna’s backpack, looking for something to freeze. Perfect! Socks. Sea’s no stranger to going home in a frozen bra or not being able to brush her teeth in the morning because her toothpaste is a brick. And I’ve had my share of frozen T-shirts. But neither of us has done socks before. I quietly slip out of the room and head for the kitchen. I fling open the freezer door and toss Sienna’s balled up socks toward the back. I grab a lone cookie off a plate on the table on my way out and head back to my room.

My alarm clock says it’s 11:34. Way too early for any good sleepover to shut down. I can’t believe Sea fell asleep on me like that. She must be really wiped out from all of her storytelling.

Might as well go online. I launch my instant messenger for a quick peek to see if any of my friends are on. Dad!
