Chapter Eleven

Zoe

Grant and Aiden found Delia and me in the quad before classes started Monday morning.

“Hey.” I smiled at him. “How was the Doctor Who marathon?”

“Good. How was the rest of your weekend?”

“Delia and I baked and went to the Art of Tea.”

“So sorry I missed the looms.”

“We could always make plans to go there after school,” I teased.

“I’m sure you have to make special reservations for the looms. People are probably lined up waiting for a spot to open.”

“Happily, the crochet corner has an open door policy. No reservations needed.”

“I’ll keep that in mind.”

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw my brother glaring in my direction. I knew it wouldn’t take long for him to hear about Grant and I being more than friends, but I thought I might have a slight grace period before the lectures started.

“Want me to go tell him I’m not trying to make you the Ringer?” Grant asked.

“That has bad idea written all over it.” My brother’s temper matched my own. It was best to let him get over the initial boil of anger and talk to him when he’d settled down to a low simmer.

My brother wasn’t the only person giving us sideways glances. Lena came toward us with an odd smile on her face. She must have had a makeover because she’d gone from princess perfect ponytail to a girl who looked like she could star in a music video.

“Grant, I lost an earring at your house yesterday, would you look around and see if you can find it?”

Funny. He hadn’t mentioned that Lena had been at his house yesterday.

“Sure. What’s it look like?”

“Actually, it’s one of the gold and silver hoops you gave me for Christmas last year.”

“Right. I’ll let you know if it turns up.”

“Thanks.” She walked off like all eyes were upon her. And most of them were, although I was probably the only one glaring daggers at her.

Grant cleared his throat. “That was awkward.”

“She probably left the earring at your place on purpose.”

“Really?”

I nodded. “It gave her a reason to talk to you.”

“That’s weird.”

A light bulb went off in my brain. “Was her visit the reason you came to see me?”

“What? I didn’t come to see you.”

“Please. I’d bet my house and Betty’s Burgers are the only two places you’ve been to that far off the highway.”

“Maybe.”

I bumped him with my hip. “You ran away from her and toward me. I’m flattered.”

The bell for class rang, and he walked me to first hour. Once I was seated, I braced myself for an attack from Lena that never came. Maybe she had finally moved on.
