Chapter 92 GawinJoss held the phone against his ear and didn't move, and I sat there in the passenger seat watching his face because it was the only thing I could actually read in that fogged up car.Nothing was happening on the line. I could tell from the way his jaw stayed tight and his eyes stayed fixed on the windshield like he was waiting for a light to change. My fingers were still wrapped around his on the console, and his hand was freezing, and I could feel his pulse going so fast it felt like it was trying to climb out through his skin."Is she still there?" I said under my breath.He nodded without looking at me. Then he took the phone away from his ear and tapped the screen, and the little hiss of the open line filled the whole car."Speaker," he said quietly. "You should hear it. Whatever she says."We sat there listening to nothing. A long time of nothing. Long enough that I started to think she'd put the phone down on a table somewhere and walked away, the way my mom u

Chapter 93Gawin"You're doing it again," I said from the back seat.Arnold didn't turn around. "Doing what?""The hand thing.""There's no hand thing.""There's absolutely a hand thing. Every red light, your hand goes over there, and every green light it comes back like nothing happened. You think we can't see you? There's two of us back here and a mirror right in front of you."Boston kept his eyes on the road and didn't say anything, but the back of his neck went red all the way up to his ears, and Joss made a small noise next to me that was definitely him trying not to laugh into his coffee."It's early," Arnold said. "My hand gets cold.""Then put it in your pocket.""My pocket's full.""Of what?""Things."The light turned red again at the next corner. Boston slowed the car to a stop, and Arnold's hand moved across the console and settled on top of Boston's on the gearshift, slow and casual, like it had just happened to land there by accident.I didn't say anything. I just looke

Chapter 95JossThe door opened, and every person in the room moved at the same time.Edward stopped halfway through handing Boston a napkin he hadn't asked for. Gawin's dad pushed off the windowsill and turned around. Dr. Halvorsen set her coffee down on the counter without looking at it. Arnold, who had been leaning against the wall pretending to read a poster about hydration, stood up straight like a teacher had walked into class. And under my hand, the back of Gawin's neck went tight as a cable.My mother came in alone.She was wearing the same long gray coat from last night, buttoned all the way up, and her hair was pinned back the way it always was, but something about her looked wrong. It took me a second to figure out what. She wasn't wearing any makeup. I'd never once in my life seen my mother leave the house without it. Her face looked older without it, and softer, and so tired that for a second I didn't recognize her.She stopped just inside the door and looked around the r

Chapter 97 Gawin Joss lifted his head off my shoulder and looked at them too.He didn't close the blinds.He couldn't put it back after that.That was the strange part. After Dr. Halvorsen unhooked the monitor and checked me over again, after Margaret sat back down in her plastic chair looking like she'd just run the whole circuit on foot, after Edward unlocked the door and Boston nearly fell into the room, Joss tried to pull his scent back in the way he always had his whole life, and it just wouldn't go. It stayed. Softer than during the test, but still there, still coming off him thick and sweet and his."That's normal," his mother said quietly when he asked. "Once it's out, it doesn't go back in all at once. Days, maybe. Maybe it never fully does.""Great," Joss said, staring at his own hands like they belonged to somebody else.Dr. Halvorsen sent us to his team's motorhome in the paddock. She said I needed to lie down for a few hours with my feet up, and that Joss needed to stay

Chapter 99GawinWe heard it before we saw it, a sound coming up from the paddock that wasn't engines or air guns or somebody yelling for a torque wrench, but people. A lot of people, all talking at once in that high, tight way they do right after a crash when nobody knows yet if the driver is okay.Edward was a step ahead of us on the tower stairs. He stopped so suddenly that Joss nearly walked into his back."What is that?" Joss said."I don't know."I pushed past both of them to the glass door at the bottom and shoved it open, and the noise hit me properly. Halfway down the pit lane, right in front of the Elaric garage, a crowd had formed. Mechanics in team shirts, a couple of drivers, the girl from the catering van still holding her coffee pot, all of them packed in a tight ring around something on the ground. A few people at the back were standing on tiptoe. One guy was holding up his phone, filming."Somebody's down," Edward said behind me.My stomach turned over. I started walk
