Nathan When I carry Alice's bag inside and set it down on the floor, I'm aware of the stares I'm given from the living room. Andrew rubs his eyes for effect while the brothers, Mark and Jake, are slack-jawed on the couch. Logan, the transfer who will be my replacement when I leave for the NHL, do
"So you haven't actually had dinner?" I can't help urging. Alice lets out a soft laugh. "Yeah, I guess. But I'm fine, Nathan. This chips bag will do me good." I frown. "But it's not fair. You fed me when I was hungry—it's only natural for me to want to return the favor." "I'm fine." "Okay then."
She giggles at that. "Kay." I walk out of the room and enter the shared bathroom. I lock the door, intent on washing myself to smell fresh. I like to believe I usually do, but I might not notice my own musk. I spend so much time on the ice rink and working out that I probably reek now and then. H

"You ought to stop testing me, Alice." "Huh? I wasn't testing you. Not at all." I lie; I was totally playing games with him. Nathan must know. He almost smiles, almost. "I don't think you're brave enough to initiate anything sexual without me telling you to do it. Eat me? Gosh, you're adorable...
Alice I don't feel too good after eating breakfast. I have a secret from Nathan now, and soon I will have another. Not only am I scheming to drop out of my program, but I'm not headed for campus. No. Nathan is about to take me there in his car, but as soon as he makes it to the ice rink, I will
