CHAPTER SIXTEEN

Daisy

Almost a month into the semester I felt like I was finally beginning to get my legs under me. The weeks had been filled with small victories. I’d attended every weekly check in with Trevor and hadn’t said a blessed word to him. Our routine was as follows: we met in the library, I handed him my paper, he read it, and would give me a curt nod if he didn’t have any questions. He would watch me leave.

Initially he’d tried making conversation, questioning me about whether or not any of my professors were giving me a hard time or asking if I had any questions about an upcoming project, but I’d been prepared. I’d calmly pull a small notebook out and written my responses. He’d raised his eyebrows and smiled like he couldn’t help himself, then he’d read the answers and given me back my notebook.

I did not notice his gorgeous smile. Okay I did—I wasn’t blind—but I didn’t moon over it, and that felt like a victory.

And last week, I’d updated my weekly report with a line at the very top that said, “All answers to questions will be responded to in writing within 72 hours and may be picked up from the office of Jubilee Hall.”

He’d raised his eyebrows and smirked but just shook his head. After he’d read over my update he’d nodded and I’d left.

I’d also run into Elodie Mayhew, literally.

I’d been coming out of the shower and bumped into her as she was walking to the next stall. Part of my mind wondered what she was doing here. I’d guessed she was visiting a friend; there were a handful of upperclassmen who lived in Jubilee, like our Resident’s Assistants and some like Odie’s roommate Janice, who had filled out her housing application late.

After I’d gasped from the shock of the impact and then gasped again from the recognition, I said what I’d been wanting to say to her. “I’m so sorry!” Because I was sorry. I wasn’t sorry I’d kissed Trevor. I had no idea Elodie was his girlfriend when that happened. But I was sorry that I played any part in her getting hurt. And even though she wouldn’t know that’s what was behind my sorry, I wanted to give it to her anyway.

I had no idea if Elodie knew what happened, but Jules had seen Trevor and me kiss, and if he were any kind of cousin he would have told her about it.

Then again, if he were any kind of cousin he wouldn’t still be hanging out with Trevor, yet I’d spotted them around campus, still thick as thieves. Either way, I wasn’t going to tell her if she didn’t already know what happened. I suspected she wouldn’t take too kindly to a total stranger telling her two of the people she was close to had betrayed her. Especially if the person who was telling her also played a role in the story.

No, I was going to keep my mouth shut.
