A Monster

“Earth to Halsey!”

Halsey is startled and looks around to find Charlotte calling for her. They are at a steakhouse, waiting for their orders to arrive. Lincoln is sitting opposite Halsey, not talking.

“What’s wrong?” Charlotte laughs. “You look as if you’re lost.”

“I was just thinking about tomorrow’s math test,” Halsey lies.

“Study study study!” Charlotte complains. “That's all you can think about! Just loosen up and relax.”

She pinches Halsey’s cheek in an attempt to lighten the mood. Lincoln doesn’t say anything but glances at Halsey as if he wants to ask her something but thinks the better of it.

“I was just worried…” Halsey says sheepishly. She loathes lying to Charlotte but with Lincoln there, she can’t tell her the truth yet. What if he overreacts? Or worse, picks a fight with Nathan?

The food arrives and Charlotte tells them to dig in. Halsey tries to focus on her dinner but her mind is still plagued with the thought of Nathan. What if he told people about their kiss?
