    I was so surprised, it took a moment for the disappointment, the utter disbelief, to register.

    I flipped over on my other side, facing away from Jeremiah.

    And then I heard Conrad say, quietly, “Earlier, when I said I never wanted you. I didn’t mean it.”

    When I came back out, Jeremiah and Conrad were on the floor, on opposite sides of the bed. They each had a pillow and a blanket. “You guys should take the bed,” I said, even though I only partly meant it. “There’s two of you. I’ll sleep on the floor.”

    Conrad was busy ignoring me, but Jeremiah said, “Nah, you take it. You’re the girl.”

    Under ordinary circumstances, I would have argued with him just for the principle of it—what did my being a girl have to do with whether or not I slept on the floor? I was a girl, not an invalid. But I didn’t argue. I was too tired. And I did want the bed.

    I looked at Conrad in the rearview, but his face was impassive.

    He and Jeremiah high-fived so hard the clap rang out in the air. And then Conrad smiled at me, and whirled me around so fast I almost tripped.

    I was laughing. “See? See? I told you!”

    “Jere doesn’t know how to highlight,” Conrad scoffed.

    “Hey!” Jeremiah said. Then, turning to me, he said, “He’s right. I suck at highlighting. I just end up highlighting the whole page. I’ll do note cards and you highlight, Bells.”

    His eyes flickered over me appraisingly, like he was trying to decide whether or not he wanted to buy a coat.

    I sprayed Conrad first, right in the eyes.

    “Hey,” he said, waking up right away. He wiped his face with the bottom of his T-shirt, and I gave him another spray just because.

    “Rise and shine,” I sang.

    Then I walked over to Jeremiah and sprayed him, too. He didn’t wake up though. He had always been impossible to wake up. He could sleep through a tidal wave. I sprayed and sprayed and when he just rolled over, I unscrewed the top of the bottle and poured the water right down the back of his T-shirt.
