Miranda, never the one to stay tight-lipped about something, bites her lips closed as I talk. We’re sitting on the floor with a stack of DVDs from the cheap movie bin at the corner store. The film we’ve chosen to watch tonight is on the TV, its menu screen playing continuously in a loop as I talk. I tell her every detail of tonight, from the stink bait to the hospital and how his middle name is Vernon. Then, although I hate recounting it, I tell her about how he ditched me at the diner. Finally, when it feels like I’ve talked for an hour straight and can say no more, I sigh and throw up my arms in defeat.

Miranda rocks back on her heels and parts her lips with her tongue. This is the longest I’ve ever seen the girl stay quiet and with every second that passes, I find myself more desperate to hear what she’s thinking. Finally, she says, “You know what this means, right?”

“It means he hates being around me?” I say. We’ve made a huge pot of queso for our movie night, and suddenly the cheese covered chip in my hand looks gross and inedible.

Miranda takes my hand and squeezes it. “It means he likes Elizabeth.” Her words fill my head and swim around in my thoughts, blurry and incomprehensible at first.

“That’s…” I want to say impossible, but the word stops on my tongue. I think back to the way Tyler seemed normal all night until she walked in the door.

He would have been at that dinner tonight when Will proposed to her.”

Miranda frowns. “I’m sorry, Robin.”

All night I’ve sat around the house, waiting for Miranda to get home so I could pour my heart out about how he doesn’t like me. But it never occurred to me that it’s not me he doesn’t like. It’s Elizabeth he does like.

Not knowing what to do with the cheesy chip in my hand, I go ahead and eat it. The cheese is cold now and the chip is soggy and it’s about all I can do to chew it up and swallow instead of spitting it on the floor. This realization that Tyler, my secret excuse to stay in Salt Gap, has a crush on someone else is a pretty big emotional blow. My chest aches, and I can’t remember the last time my chest physically hurt over the loss of a guy. It was probably back in high school.

In a completely involuntary action of my body, like breathing or blinking, hot tears form in the corners of my eyes. I blink, quickly trying to
