The next morning, Daphne awoke with a start, looking for Astoria. No one was there. Daphne wasn’t sure how the magic had changed, but she knew she would only be able to figure it out if she found Astoria again. Sighing, she packed up the blanket and the single bowl they had been using for meals. She made sure the campfire was completely doused, strewed the ashes and covered them with leaves. If the Coven came this way they would probably be able to sense her presence, but she didn’t want to give them any obvious clues. The sun was out today at least, and Daphne checked its position as she murmured the pathfinder chant to make sure she was headed east, toward the Portal of Arden. She didn’t know what else to do.

Soph.

Wednesday morning when I wake up, I find, to my surprise, that Freddy has texted me. It’s Valentine’s Day, but that’s not the point of Freddy’s text.

[From Freddy to Soph] Help! They’re insisting I ski this time.

I suppose it was bound to happen. Mrs. Peckett can be very persuasive.

[From Soph to Freddy] Just do the bunny trail once then say you twisted your ankle.

[From Freddy to Soph] It’s been three years. Last time I fell it was a total yard sale. I broke my collarbone.

[From Soph to Freddy] You can fall on the bunny slope—everyone else there does.

[From Freddy to Soph] But ski instructor is 2 hot. He’ll laugh at me.

Well, that answers the question: Freddy’s gay, like me, or maybe bi or pan. Did he think I already knew?

[From Soph to Freddy] Gotta pretend to try. Then be damsel in distress!

Freddy responds with an emoji of a princess. He turns out to have more personality than I thought.

[From Soph to Freddy] Good to try new things.

I attach the selfie of Tess and me holding the lasagna.

[From Freddy to Soph] Since when is lasagna a new thing?

[From Soph to Freddy] No, we made the lasagna. Ourselves!

[From Freddy to Soph] Cool. And the girl in the picture?

This time, he puts in a winking emoji.

[From Soph to Freddy] Room8. Nice girl. Different tribe.

He turns serious.

[From Freddy to Soph] Don’t tell anyone.

[From Soph to Freddy] OK.

But I can’t help adding,

[From Soph to Freddy] UR late to the party, F. Time to come out!

[From Freddy to Soph] UR the only one I told. Please.

[From Soph to Freddy] Why did you wait so long?

[From Freddy to Soph] Too hard.

[From Soph to Freddy] Duh. But it only gets harder.

[From Freddy to Soph] There’s no other way?

[From Soph to Freddy] NO!!!

[From Freddy to Soph] Know it all.

Tess hears me say “humph” out loud.

“Did you say something, Soph?”

“No, I’m getting frustrated with this guy.”

“A guy?”

“Yeah, well, no, not that. I know this guy, Freddy, and he just told me that he’s gay but he won’t tell his parents or anyone. I wish he would come out already.”

“Why do you care?”

“Because he’s going to have to at some point.
