Summer’s Pov

After Brianna walked away, I stood in the corridor for about four seconds, breathed through my nose, and went to class.

That was it. That was the decision. I was not going to spend the rest of my morning replaying the look on Brianna's face or the way her friends had stood there watching like it was entertainment or the fact that I had looked her dead in the eyes and said stay away from me and actually meant every single syllable of it. I was going to go to class, sit down, and be a

    Summer's Pov "You are going to outshine the bride," Ruby said. "I'm just going to say it.""Stop that." I turned back to the mirror."I'm serious. Summer, look at yourself."I looked.The green dress fit like it had been made specifically for today, for this light, for this version of me that still felt slightly unfamiliar. It was deep emerald, fitted at the waist, the kind of dress that made you stand differently. My hair was up with a few pieces falling loose around my face and my makeup was light enough to look like me but deliberate enough to look like an occasion.I had never thought, not once in my life, that I would be standing in a mansion bedroom getting dressed for my mother's second wedding. Life had a very specific sense of humor."You look stunning too," I said to Ruby, who was wearing the green silk dress she had claimed from my wardrobe three days ago and fully intended to keep forever."I know," she said, smoothing it down. "Cain is going to lose his mind." She checke

    Summer's Pov One hour.One full hour of Ruby and Cain on that video call and I lay on my side of the bed staring at the wall like a person who had made several poor decisions that led to this exact moment.Cain saying things I absolutely did not need to hear. Ruby making sounds she absolutely did not need to make within three feet of me. I pulled my pillow over my head and thought about the periodic table. Then projectile motion. Then the entire plot of a book I'd read two years ago. Then I started mentally reciting French vocabulary because I was desperate.*Why is everyone around me doing this.*Finally, after what felt like a full academic semester, it went quiet.I waited five minutes. Ruby's breathing slowed and evened out into something deep and steady. I waited two more minutes just to be sure.Then I got up.The kitchen water on my nightstand had gone warm and I needed something cold. I needed something cold and I needed to stand somewhere that wasn't that bedroom and breathe

    Summer's PovThe week moved like it was doing it on purpose. Slow and thick, like everything was wading through something.I barely saw Crew. Which was fine. It was actually ideal. After the classroom incident that I had filed under things we do not think about and the tutoring session where I had accused him of holding his pen wrong like a completely normal and sane person, some distance was exactly what I needed.I caught glimpses of him though. Once in the corridor with Richard, both of them standing near the study doorway, Crew with his hands in his pockets and Richard talking about something that had Crew nodding with that focused look he got when hockey was involved. Something about an upcoming game. A big one. I didn't hear the details but I saw Richard's face during that conversation and it was different from the one I'd seen before, more present, more interested.Crew also had an impromptu test mid-week. Physics.He got a B.I found out from Richard, who told me at dinner wit

    Summer's PovDetention on day two was somehow worse than day one.At least yesterday there had been the novelty of it. The adrenaline still in my system, the fight still fresh, something to sit with. Today it was just a room and two other students who looked as miserable as I felt, and Mr. Sam at the front reading something on his phone with the energy of a man serving his own sentence.They had us arranging books for the first twenty minutes. The library shelf situation, apparently, had gotten out of hand and someone had decided that detention students were the appropriate solution. I stacked textbooks in alphabetical order and thought about my life choices.Brianna's chair was empty.Mr. Sam noticed at the thirty minute mark.He looked at her empty chair. Then at me. "Do you know where she is?""No."A pause. "Can you go find her?"I stared at him. "You want me to go find Brianna.""She's supposed to be here.""I understand that. I'm just clarifying that you want me specifically to

    Crew’s PovI watched Summer walk away.Objectively that scene was funny. I wasn't going to say that out loud but it was objectively funny. Summer Winters, who couldn't stand up for herself, is doing so now.Cute was not a word I was going to use. But, cute.I looked at Brianna.Brianna was red. Not embarrassed red, the furious red, the kind that started at her neck and moved upward, and she was staring at the direction Summer had gone with her hands clenched and her whole body coiled around something she hadn't been able to release.I checked my watch.Practice in forty minutes. I needed to get to the car, get home, get changed, get back out. I did not have time for whatever this was about to become."I don't have time for this," I said, and turned."Don't you dare."Her voice came out sharper than I expected. I stopped."Don't you dare walk away from me right now, Crew." She moved around to face me."You're seriously going to leave. Right now. After all of that.""I have practice.""

    Summer's PovRuby arrived, took one look at the situation, and said, "I need to borrow her for a second," in the tone of someone who absolutely did not need to borrow anyone for anything but was going to do it regardless."Ruby—" I started, as she physically took my arm."One second, sorry, won't be long." She smiled at Miranda with a warmth that did not reach her eyes and steered me three tables away."Listen to me." She turned to face me, hands on my shoulders, completely serious. "You and me. Tyler. The three of us. That's it. That's the group. We are going to grow old together, Summer. We are going to be those weird old women who have lunch together every Sunday and argue about the same things we argued about when we were eighteen and share photos of each other's grandchildren. That is the plan. I did not sign up for expansion." She paused. "I love Tyler. He's the only reason I even accepted a third member and I've known him since we were eleven. Miranda from English has been in y

    Summer's Pov I walk toward Crew's car, each step making me more annoyed. Why is he here? Why can't he just leave me alone?I bang on the window with my palm.The glass slides down smoothly, and Crew's face appears, that infuriating smirk already in place."Careful, sis." He gestures at the window

    Crews’s Pov I didn't even know Summer was going to be here.The thought hits me as I skate out onto the ice, my eyes scanning the crowd out of habit. And there she is, sitting in the middle section with Ruby, looking uncomfortable in a sea of Blackwood burgundy and gold.She's here for Tyler. Obvi
