Chapter 12

The walk back over to Jamie’s office was mostly silent. I knew that he had alerted my sister and Aaron that he was ready for Brandon to come back. My sister never took her arm from around Brandon’s shoulders the whole time we were walking, so I didn’t get a chance to ask him again if he was nervous, though I got the impression he was, at least a little bit. I was sure he was still thinking about Sam, too, though. I knew I would be for a long time.

We’d just crossed onto the sidewalk that led to Jamie’s office building when I realized my phone was vibrating. I pulled it out and saw that Lucy was calling, but with everything going on, I tucked it back into my pocket and tried to stay focused on what was going on around me. I’d call her back later, after Brandon was all done with his Transformation procedure.

Something else must’ve been going on, too, because Aaron and Cadence kept doing that thing they do when they are having a conversation, looking at each other like they’re talking but not moving their lips. My sister tends to gesture a lot with her eyes. I wondered what they were talking about but knew they wouldn’t tell me until they were good and ready to. Whatever it was had them in a somber mood.

“Wow, you guys all look super excited to be here.” Jamie was waiting for us just down the hall from his office in what looked like a small operating room. Everything looked sterile and white, and there was a hospital bed with one of those trays full of tools across the room. I saw needles and vials and still wished it were me that was about to be passed out on that bed.

Jamie finished setting up whatever he was doing and crossed over to us with a smile in Brandon’s direction. A look at my new friend’s face told me Brandon was more nervous than I had initially thought. He tossed his jacket on a chair and attempted to be nonchalant. “Oh, I can hardly wait. Lots of pain and an indefinite amount of time unconscious. Who wouldn’t want that?” He was joking, but Brandon was eyeing the bed suspiciously. I wished I could reassure him somehow, but Cadence was still between us.

The doctor’s voice sounded calm and reassuring. “Well, I thought this would be the safest place to do it, but I don’t foresee any problems.”

As Brandon took a deep breath and stepped toward the bed, I was reminded that my sister had actually had some problems, and I folded my arms against my chest, wondering what I might do if something bad began to happen to Brandon right in front of me. I had to trust Jamie to take care of it.

“May as well get it over with it.” Brandon climbed on the bed and sat with his legs dangling off the side, his feet almost touching the ground.
