by Angel Lawson
But Amanda is focused on Ms. Bates and Carl has drool rolling down his chin. He’s asleep. The new girl, though, I catch her looking at me. She blushes and looks away, but it doesn’t matter. I’ve already shifted my attention behind her.
The empty desk from earlier has someone sitting in it.
A boy.
Blonde, curly hair. Ripped jeans and a silly grin on his face. He leans close to the girl, whispering something in her ear. I stare and his gaze turns onto me. A blast of cold air rolls in my direction and I blink.
He’s not there.
That desk is empty.
It’s empty, I tell myself, recognizing the tell-tale static around the kid’s edges. But it’s not. I know then that it’s happening again. Despite the medication. Despite everything.
A sickening feeling emerges from my stomach, but I don’t look away—not when she stares back at me, or when she turns around to see what I’m looking at—who I’m looking at.
Because she sees him, too.
