Amery had a productive week, distracting herself by digging through all of Dr. Novak’s correspondence and accounts. It wasn’t even hard. He had shared all his passwords with her, written on paper, because he was constantly locking himself out of every single online portal. The first order of business had been to read through all of his conversations with Martin Andrews. After taking notes and screenshots, she had then combed through Dr. Novak’s financial accounts. The evidence was there in plain sight. He’d sold his stock in Versa immediately after Martin had left his office last week, hours before the crash. There were also other suspicious movements in his portfolio that corresponded to tips from Martin.

She’d documented it all, puzzling over the matter all week. Martin Andrews was definitely guilty of insider trading and she had the proof, but what did that matter? Was outing his father the same thing as teaching Zack a lesson? Did Zack even know his father was a criminal? Would he care if he found out? He certainly knew that his father was a homophobic jackass. Maybe the criminal part wouldn’t be that much of a surprise. She had chewed down some of her new black manicure thinking about it.

No matter which way she approached it, she always arrived at the same question. Did she still even want to teach Zack a lesson? As the week crept by, she thought about it and thought about it, finding that the answer was becoming ever more elusive.

She hated Zack, didn’t she?

But it didn’t feel quite like hate anymore. Not when she was throwing snowballs at him. Not when he was handing her his gloves or telling her to wear a hat so she didn’t catch a cold. Not when he was buying her crystals and books without complaining. Not when he was dancing with her or begging her to do aura photography with him. Definitely not when he told her about his brother. And not when she had hugged him when she couldn’t even remember hugging anyone but Aidan in the past several years except her mother once, under duress.

She still couldn’t believe she had done it. She really wasn’t a hugger. She evaded her friends' open arms and with the men she was seeing, well… hugging wasn’t the kind of physical contact that she was used to receiving. But she’d hugged Zack and liked it and then thought about his wrists and arms and hands the whole drive back from Salem.

She was seriously deranged.

After a full week of meditation (the kind that involved listening to metal and trying out new styles of eyeliner, not the kind that involved sitting peacefully on a yoga mat), she found that she was tired of thinking about Zack. He had invaded her mind in a way that she didn’t like. Impulsively, she bought tickets to Ohio. She wished that she could say that it was motivated purely by the desire to celebrate with her little brother, but part of her knew that it was a potential escape from the crash course she was headed on.
