Chapter 16

My heart was racing as if I’d just flown down a mountain. Was I delusional? How could I have written this? I’d been unconscious almost the whole time we’d been at the cabin, and I would have remembered writing it when I was awake. I briefly entertained the idea that I’d written it in my sleep, during a particularly vivid dream. Except all of my dreams had been about dying.

No. I was just exhausted—mentally, physically. Skiing again had taken a lot out of me. Fighting off Gideon’s mental manipulation had messed with my mind. When I thought about the sheer weight of everything, I couldn’t keep my eyes open.

I was looking for connections where there weren’t any. That was all.

I got up and buried the notebook in my bottom drawer under a mountain of socks. If it was out of sight, I wouldn’t have to think about it anymore. It didn’t exist. I crawled back into bed and turned off the lamp. Soon I was drifting off, letting every thought, every fear, every hint about my past and clue to my future slip away into the night.
