It was impossible to sleep with my heart thumping against my rib cage. My face was flushed and sweaty, and I tossed and turned for the rest of the night. I wasn’t surprised when my chemistry test was a major bust the next morning. I probably even got Your name here wrong. I managed to put Lee and my nighttime adventure out of my mind for the weekend, and by the time Monday morning rolled around, I’d even convinced myself it could not have happened the way I thought it had. I must have imagined the tension I’d felt between us. In light of day, I felt more than a little guilty for treating Lee so badly. My loss was his loss too. The Monday holiday meant we didn’t have classes, but Haley had field hockey practice anyway and Emma had an all-day Scouting activity. With nothing to do, I realized it was a perfect time to drive out to Lookingglass and apologize. At the convenience store I was greeted by Liza, Lee’s girlfriend. She was dressed in a deep purple short-sleeved T-shirt and pink denim shorts that showed off her curves, and her hair was pinned back in plastic pink and purple clips.
