Hey, partner in crime.

A second later, Wesley writes back.

Hey, you. I hope your night’s not as boring as mine.

I wish.

I think about typing the story into the phone, but now is not the time to explain.

I need a favor.

Name it.

I chew my lip, thinking of how to say it.

A few kids are up past their bedtimes. Tuck them in for me?

Sure thing.

Thanks. I owe you.

Is everything okay?

It’s a funny story. I’ll tell you tomorrow.

I’ll hold you to it.

I pocket the phone and the list and dig the soda out of the machine, slumping onto a bench to drink it. It’s late and the hall is quiet, and I replay Judge Phillip’s crime scene in my head. I know what I saw. The void was real. I have to assume there are two more: one in Bethany’s driveway and another wherever Jason vanished. Three innocent people gone. If there’s any upside to my being stuck here, it’s that no one else should get hurt.

I finish the soda and get to my feet. The local anesthetic has worn off, and the pain in my arm is bad enough to make me consider the pills in my pocket. I throw them away to be safe and head back to my room and climb into bed. I’m not feeling anywhere close to sleep, but I’m also not feeling anywhere close to normal. I think of Lyndsey, who always makes me feel a little bit closer to okay, and text her.
