Chapter Twenty-Five

CARRIE WAS AS GOOD as her word. Over the next few days, they didn’t have any more in-depth conversations, but she made eye contact as they passed in the hallways. She even smiled at him a few times.

When she's not pretending to be a pariah, she's a sweet, intelligent, saucy girl, he thought, after one such stolen smile between class periods. That's just one of my surprises. In my middle age, I was so set in my ways. Now I'm learning to roll with changes that would have knocked me off the rails in my previous life. One day, I thought I was a solitary time traveler. The next, I found the unlikeliest possible companion on this path.

Either way, the sun rose and set, and the school bells rang, demanding at least some sort of attention. Even with that distraction, Michael Hollister often came to Thomas's mind. He had a dream that repeated several times a week, in which Michael’s victims stood in a ring, looking at Thomas, silently beseeching him to change their fate.

Amiable Amy’s nose had scabbed over where the rubber bands had cut into her skin, but every time Thomas saw her, he thought of Michael Hollister and how close he had been to losing her. That was one thing, but the thought of the people who would lose parents, daughters and sons, brothers and sisters–that tore at him even more.

Upon finding Amy in the cave that night, he had vowed to do something. Now, with time marching on, he had no idea what that might be. Get Billy and a few other friends to grab him and duct tape him to the goalposts? Even better, strip him naked, then duct tape him to the goalposts.

Probably too much. Do I want to get into an arms race with a sociopath that is just as willing to kill you as look at you?

Probably not wise, but it feels like I’ve got to do something, first for what he did to Amy, for all the people who will be killed if I don’t.

Now if I can figure out what.
