“What do you mean, they planned this?” Brian’s Mom, Sarah asked with more than a bit of bite to her voice.

“Not the accident, well not the car accident. The Accident with the costume.” Tracy said as she tried to convey both just how sorry she was, and how important Aurora was to the child that lay in the bed.

When my escort opened the door, the rush intensified immensely at the sound of Josh singing and the roar of the crowd. The place was awash with energy, and I couldn't help but bask in it.

“We’ll head back to civilization tomorrow morning.”

She smiled meekly back at me at that. “It’s not that.” She slowly stood, walking around the fire to sit on the ground beside me, though she continued to stare into the leaping, dancing flames. “There’s something I wanted to ask you for a long time now, but I’m scared.”

“Of what?”

“Of how you’ll react,” she answered.

Nicole smiled fondly as she leaned closer. We exchanged a brief, soft kiss before I rested my head on her shoulder, letting her hold me in serene silence.

“I felt the same way. I’ve always been shy about relationships. I don’t even know how I ended up staying with Jason for so long, but the entire time I was at my rock camp, I couldn’t stop thinking about you. Everyone thinks we’re too young to have these kinds of feelings.” She hesitated, as though she wanted to say more.

“What is it?” I asked as I raised my head again.

“I don’t know about you, but I stopped being a child a long time ago,” she answered softly.

Everyone turned to me at that point, and  my body took it upon it’s self to betray me and blush violently. Once that was taken care of, I smiled politely and said “Trick or Treat?” and even added a bit of a curtsy

“I was starting to wonder if I should come back later,” Katelyn offered as the three of us cleaned up the kitchen, mostly disposing of fast food wrappers and bags.

“Sorry,” I started, but she shook her head.

“It’s fine. I’m kind of surprised you didn’t tell your parents about me though.”

“No, I told them. Back when I was dealing with Jason, Mom told me about his mom’s condition. She said that not everything is black and white, and she really encouraged me to give him another chance.”

“Your Mom’s an amazing woman,” she answered quietly. “I didn’t know you almost lost her last summer.”

“I’ve been through a lot just to get to be who I am. I guess that’s why I try so hard to get along with others. I know, I remember, what it’s like to be everyone’s target.”

sc2.jpg The house itself was something I had only ever seen in movies before. I knew that my family lived in a nice house that would get us a pretty penny if we ever sold it, but this place put to shame the home I'd known my entire life. I was really intimidated as I stepped out of my car and approached the front door. I really wished I had Mom and Dad, or even Emily or Ethan with me to help keep me from turning and running away.

“Katelyn, hold on a minute.” She stopped, turning back to me with a neutral expression. “There’s a cheer retreat coming up soon. If you want to go, just talk to Victoria for a release form.”

Her gaze softened as she stared back at me. “You’re serious?”

“Yes I’m serious. Not everyone on the squad’s even going to be able to go because it’s the first weekend of Spring Break.” She continued to stare at me, untrusting. I shook my head. “If you want to go, talk to Victoria or Coach Greer for that matter.”

“If you’re lying, and I did ask Coach Greer, you’d get thrown off the squad.” A calculating smile crossed her lips. I smiled right back at her. I wouldn’t give her the satisfaction of thinking she had me cornered. I turned to continue out to the parking lot.

“Aww, Robin you didn’t have to do this.” Now it was her turn to cry as she wrapped me in a hug. I kissed her cheek, whispering in her ear.

“I wanted to.”

“This is the first time anybody’s ever given me flowers for V-day. Even my parents wouldn’t have before because I threatened to have a rose petal bonfire if they’d tried,” she giggled.

“Ah, speaking of musicians,” Jane spoke up hesitantly. Moira, there’s something I need to tell you.” Moira turned to face Jane, who had a positively guilty look on her face.

“Moira, I’m so sorry. When you said there was no way you’d be able to make it to the wedding, I started to plan a surprise for both Linda, and for you.”

Moira’s expression shifted from confusion to concern. “Jane, what’s going on?”

She exhaled slowly. “This was supposed to happen in private. I’m so, so sorry.” Before she could continue though, an older female voice, with a distinct, strong Irish brogue called out hesitantly from the lobby door.

“Moira?”

“I’ll give you two some privacy. See you both tomorrow!” She patted my shoulder lightly as she passed, humming the theme song of the movie we had just finished watching. Nicole rolled her eyes, dipping her thumbs into the pockets of her black jeans as she pressed her backside against the car.

“What are we gonna do with her?” she joked. She looked back up at me again with a nervous smile. “I know what you’re going to ask. Please don’t. I might chicken out.”

Rather than say anything, I stepped closer and wrapped her in a tight hug. She tilted her head to the side, resting her cheek against my shoulder facing me with her eyes closed. I couldn’t resist stealing a kiss, which caused her to smile even more.

“I’m sorry,” she offered. “I didn’t know what else to do. There’s been an accident, and I was wondering if Moira ever gave you her girlfriend’s number.”

I was studying in the first year of engineering college at that time,
so was Alok. The first time I met Alok he was struggling with some
luggage he was trying to get to his hostel room. I carried it for him
till the boys' hostel gate, as he walked behind looking quite
embarrassed. I wondered at the frailty of the poor guy, he seemed so
weak and shy.

He thanked me profusely the next time we met - I think it was in the
canteen. I tried to make light of it by saying, "It's alright. What
