CHAPTER 30

I wake up in Dre’s bed with a pounding headache, a sick stomach, and a guilty heart.

Then Seth calls and asks if I can come over.

“I don’t know,” I say, shutting my eyes against the light that is blaring through Dre’s windows. “I don’t feel very well.” It isn’t a lie.

“Yeah, I bet,” he says, and something in his tone – dismissive, mocking, rude − makes my eyes fly open. Seth never uses that kind of voice with me.

“Excuse me?” I say. My stomach is churning and I know I’m going to be sick.

“Just come over,” he says, and hangs up.

Dre rolls over next to me. “Who is calling you so early?” she groans. “Please tell me it is someone who is going to bring us pizza. I need pizza. Or tacos. Or maybe pizza and tacos.”

“Will you two shut up?” Libby moans from the floor. She’s still in her dress from last night and is wearing one high heel. At least I managed to put on a pair of Dre’s pajamas last night.

“I’ve gotta go,” I say, getting up out of Dre’s bed.

“To get me pizza?” Dre says hopefully.

“I’ve just … gotta go,” I say. “Can I borrow something?” There is no way I am going over to Seth’s in what I wore to the club last night. I don’t ever want to wear this dress again. I want to forget about this dress and forget about the night and pretend it never happened.

Dre gestures at her closet. “Mi casa, su casa,” she says. “Or I guess, mi armario, su armario.”

I shower first, and by the time I go back into Dre’s room, she and Libby are snoring again.

I have a text from Seth: Are you coming over or what?

I don’t like the feeling that he is summoning me.

I don’t like the realization that maybe I’ve been taking Seth’s affection for granted, like something I could never lose.

Most of all, I don’t like the feeling that I’ve done something very, very wrong.
