An hour and a half later, when Erik turns onto my street, I ask to be let out two blocks from home.

“Oh, right,” he mutters, his first words since we left Milwaukee. “Wouldn’t want to stop being a secret, would I?”

When we stop at the curb, I grab my bag and look at Erik. He didn’t even look at me the entire drive back. His hands remain on the wheel, gripping it with white-knuckled ferocity. I’m angry but I won’t leave it like this, so I lean over and kiss him on the cheek. I hear the breath he’s been holding exit his lungs posthaste. He finally looks at me, eyes shiny in the dusk, and says, “Do you see why I thought you needed time to think about San Diego? Welcome to our first fight.”

I promise I’ll call, and he drives off. I go to my room. The paintings on the wall only remind me what a loser I am. I take each one down and shove them under my bed. When there’s no room left beneath the box spring, I take the tackle box where I keep my paints and shove it in the back of my closet. My brushes, too. Even though Oxana told me to, I don’t want to paint my Haring. Not anymore.

For the first time in a very, very long time, I cry myself to sleep.
