I swipe the top shelf of my bookcase, reaching for the last speck of dust. Stepping away from the shelves, I survey my room. It’s looking good. Something about Tracey-Ann coming back today has sent me into a cleaning frenzy. I’m not a slob. I hate messes. Still, I’m not the most organized person around. If Tracey-Ann ends up coming over today I want my room to look at least half-decent. There’s no telling what the bottom floor of the house will look like, or even if everyone down there will be conscious or fully clothed. At least I have full control of my bedroom.

My door flies open and Connor strides in.

“You didn’t knock,” I tell him.

“Seriously?”

He sits in the chair and props his feet up on my desk. I give him a dirty look but he’s too busy staring out the window to notice. “Tracey-Ann is staying at her folks’ for a week.”

I process the news. The summer is almost over. She's supposed to be back on campus starting today. It's not the time for an impromptu trip.

“How do you know?” I ask.

I have my phone in my back pocket. If someone texts me, I feel it buzz.

“She sent me a text.”

I stare at him. “I didn’t get one.”

I sound pathetic. Like a whiny son of a bitch. I hear the annoying tone of my voice but I still don't stop it. Tracey-Ann always sends a message to both of us if she has something to say.

Connor scratches the back of his head and turns his face towards the door. He’s avoiding looking at me. “She knew I’d tell you.”

I hear the grinding of my teeth and realize I’m gritting them together. “You two talk on your own now?”

“No.” He drops his feet to the floor and looks at me. “She and I never talk. Not unless it’s in our group texts.”

I can feel the waves of adrenaline rising in me. They surge down my arms and make my fingers twitch. “You’re lying.”

He jerks back like I’m coming at him with a fist. “About what?”

“You talk to her on your own.”

He shakes his head. “Man, you’re going crazy. Do you hear yourself?” He sits up straighter and leans in my direction. “I like what we have with Tracey-Ann. I don’t need anything more or anything less. You’re the one who needs to get clear about what it is you want.”

My teeth clamp together. I made a mistake by accusing him of sneaking around behind my back, but I can’t find it in myself to apologize. There’s a tightness in my gut and a pounding fire in my head. My thoughts and words aren’t coming out clearly.

“She doesn’t want to see us,” I dully say.

“No,” Connor quickly says. “That’s not it. She wants to see her parents. There’s only one week of summer left.”

“She’s supposed to be with us this week.”

“Is she?” He crosses his arms. “We didn’t have firm plans.”

“Close enough.”

“She’s not our girl. This is the way we wanted it.
