“This isn’t funny,” she said dul y.

“I’m serious, Grace—if you want to know what happened, we can figure it out. They can’t,” he added, pointing toward the station. “They won’t need to, because they’l have you. But we can fix things, and get them back to normal.”

“Take me home,” she told him, not wanting to think any more about the accident, or any of it.

He ignored her. “Start with the drugs—that’s the key. Are you sure you didn’t take anything?”

She remembered Kaia handing her two white pil s: Xanax. She remembered popping them into her mouth and stepping onstage, and her world fal ing apart. But that couldn’t be right.

“Take me home,” she insisted, louder.

“Promise me you won’t go to the cops,” he retorted.

“I stil don’t get why you care.”

”You don’t have to,” he said, looking away. “Just promise.”

She had already promised herself that she would do the right thing; tonight was supposed to have been about figuring out what that was. Kane was the last person to go to for that kind of help. On the other hand, she thought, torn between horror and bemusement, who else have I got?

“I’l do whatever I decide to do, Kane. Take me home.”

Kane banged a fist against the steering wheel, then visibly steadied himself, taking two deep breaths before turning to her with a serene smile. “Fine, Grace. Do what you need to do.

It’s your funeral.”

But that was just the problem—maybe it should have been. But it wasn’t.
