Chapter Eleven

Two hours later, I was wide awake. My stomach churned with acid, and I wanted nothing more than another hug from Will.

I made it another ninety minutes. It was either sneak down the hall to talk to Will or pull my hair out, one strand at a time.

I crept to the door and opened it an inch. The loft was dark except for light over the stove and light filtering out from the bathrooms. I dared to open it wider and peeked around. I couldn't see much, and I didn't hear anyone moving around. Everyone must be asleep. I moved into the hall and took slow, deliberate steps in the direction of Will's room. After about five steps, my foot bumped into something.

What in the world?

A light clicked on near the floor and I could see that Nic was laying on an air mattress in the hall.

“What are you doing?” I hissed. “Are you sleeping in the hall?”

“We've been taking turns all week,” he said. “You didn't think we'd take a chance on you two sneaking into each others rooms, did you?”

“Oh! We would never!”

“Amanda, that's exactly what you're doing right now.”

“I can't sleep!”

“Go back to bed, and I won't tell Christie.” He rolled back over and clicked off the light.

Good grief. “You could at least wait until I got back to my room before you turned out the light.”

“I could,” he said.

I felt my way down the hall to my door. Then I went in and slammed the door. I know it was childish, but so was refusing to leave the light on for me.

I crawled back into the bed, hugged a pillow to my chest, and closed my eyes.

Part of me, the part that didn't back down from a challenge, wanted to wait until Nic was sleeping and try again. Now that I knew he was there, I had a shot at getting past him. I wouldn't mind seeing the shock on Nic's face when I outwitted him. The part of me that was sane and rational knew I was already in enough trouble. And also that a sleeping Nic could be deadly if he didn't realize who was sneaking around him. Yeah, I didn't need to prove anything. It was enough to know that I could do it, if I so chose.
