Chapter 12

Memory Work

The second Rae stepped out of the club she raced to where Riley had parked his car. Nic, Charlie and Molly stood on the passenger side, their faces grim.

“What’s going on?” Rae skidded to a stop right beside them. “Where’s Riley?” She shifted and glanced behind Nic into the car. Riley wasn’t there.

Nic, using his thumb, pointed behind him and made a face as if to say, ‘don’t go over there.’

A retching sound erupted from near the boot of the car. Riley stood, half keeled over, his face hidden by the trunk. The sound continued a few more times before he spat and slowly straightened, leaning against his car for support. “Nic, you’re gonna have to drive home.” He lamely tossed his keys in Nic’s direction.

Rae walked over to him, being careful to stop far enough away to avoid smelling or seeing anything. “We need to get you to the infirmary.” She whispered, knowing pale and slightly green looking Riley would have no problem hearing her. “Your shoulder could be poisoning you. I am so sorry.”

Riley half smiled, his eyes glassy. “Shoulder’s fine. Totally healed.” He swallowed and grimaced. “I think I’ve got the freakin’ flu.” He leaned over again and heaved.

“Oh!” Rae stepped back. Thank goodness it wasn’t from his shoulder. I’d better not catch it if I’m supposed to be doing some mission tomorrow. Just the sound of him heaving is making me nauseous. She’d never been a sympathetic gagger and there was a good chance she never would be, but she didn’t think it was a good time to test the theory. She opened the car door to the back. “I think I’m just going to wait in here.”

“Me too.” Molly squeezed in close behind. “Why don’t you come back here with us, Charlie? Put Riley in the front seat, close to the window. Whenever he’s ready.”

Thankfully they drove back to Guilder without having to pull over for Riley. The guys helped him out of the car and toward Joist Hall, while the girls split off and headed to Aumbry House. Rae checked her watch. Half past ten. Not too late, but she had to meet Julian tomorrow at five and didn’t want to be worn out. Rae suddenly realized that she didn’t even know where exactly they were supposed to meet up. She assumed just outside of Aumbry, but now that she thought about it, she’d rather have confirmation. She could walk over to his dorm on the top floor of Joist, except that then she risked seeing Devon, who lived across the hall. She pulled her phone out as she and Molly trudged up the black and white marble stairs. She sent Julian a text arranging to meet him in the lobby of Aumbry at four forty-five.

“Texting Luuuu-ke?” Molly said his name in a sing-song fashion.

“Julian, actually.” Rae finished her message and sent it. “I’m going to be gone for a couple of days; can you email me any work I miss or whatever I need to read?”

“Sure.
