“It was just a dream.”
Angel lets out a big sigh of relief.
“I thought it was...” She takes a dubious look at the rusty old frying pan still gripped in her hand, then shakes her head. “I don’t know what I thought.”
We exchange a glance, then burst out laughing. Angel comes to the edge of my bed and plops down.
“That must have been some dream—you tossed and turned your whole comforter off.”
I looked at the fallen, crumpled-up thing on the floor, nodding without saying anything. Nope, that dream is one thing I’m not admitting to—not ever.
With a heave, I throw myself out of bed.
“I’m going to go.”
“What, now?”
I glance at the clock. It’s only 7 a.m., but I have to get ready and get over there too, after all.
“Yep—first stop Allan Dane’s office. Dibs on the bathroom.”
And then I’m in there, having escaped to the shower. In the tall, tiny box, I still manage to revel in the warm droplets and my now certainty. I’m not going to let some twisted erotic dream dissuade me from what I have to do. No, Angel was right. This wasn’t just for myself anymore or even for showing Geno; it was for the people I loved. Angel. Popper. Dad. I owe it to them to at least try, whatever the consequences. Though, as I step out of the shower and stare at my still-flushed face, something tells me that the consequences of what I’m about to do are even more serious than I can imagine.
