John didn’t meet me at my locker, and I had no idea why. Since we had started going out, he’d met me every morning. I stuck my pager in my pocket, just in case he called. My brother had just given me his old pager, and I had given John the number. When he called, I always pretended I needed to use the bathroom to step outside and get to a phone. In my hurry to get my books, I knocked a bunch of stuff out of my locker.

I bent over and randomly gathered everything, and that’s when I saw Lacey’s silver best friend necklace on the tiled floor. I threw all the rest of my crap on the shelf then bent back down to pick up the necklace.

It was tangled, with several small knots and one really big one.

I shoved it in my pocket, threw my books in my backpack, and slammed my locker door shut.

As I walked to class, my mind was a jumble of thoughts. I had felt a kick to my seat even if Nathan hadn’t. What was with that? And I’d seen a shovel last night at John’s? And I’d dreamed about everything, even Lacey’s necklace. And now it was tangled in my pocket.

I hardly heard a word in math, and by the end of the class, I had a full page of doodles. Still immersed in my thoughts, I got up to leave and shouldered someone, causing me to lose my balance and sending my books tumbling to the floor.

“Watch where you’re going,” Lacey muttered.

“Sorry,” I mumbled, bending over to pick up my books for the second time that day. Of the 30 people in class, I would have to pick Lacey to smack into. I thought about the necklace. Had that been a sign that I was going to run into her today? Was I supposed to pick up on these signs?

When I stood, I was so hoping she would have vacated the room, but she was still standing there. Now she was eyeing me instead of glaring.

“I wish you hadn’t ruined our friendship,” she said, holding her books in front of her.

“I was honest with you,” I said.

“Honest?” She paused. “You lied to me.”

“It wasn’t like that.”

“Yes, it was!”

“No, it wasn’t. I was trying to warn you. Help you.”

“Warn me about what? Burke? Just admit it, Indie, you were jealous of my relationship with him. That he took me away from you.”

“Jealous? I was happy for you.” I pulled my books around in front of my chest.

“He doesn’t cheat on me, you know,” she said. “He drove you home from that party, and you wanted him for yourself, so you said that to me.”

“What?”

“That’s it. Isn’t it? You made up the vision. And took John as second best.”

I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. She had no right to bring John into this. I was about to scream at her, when I caught myself. I didn’t want to hurt her any more than I already had.
