Third Wheel
Hell yeah!
In between Lifetime Movies, I grab the notebook Kennedy gave me. I decide I’ll journal about today and tomorrow. I open to the first page, write today’s date on the heading line, and write. I write about the research, my findings, my fears...I list things I might do while Jackson and Kennedy are at work to pass the time. I’m half watching the movie, half randomly listing things to do when Jackson pulls into the driveway. After quickly stashing the notebook in my room, I’m carrying my popcorn and ice cream to the kitchen when Jackson enters.
“Busted,” he claims as I freeze mid-step. “That looks healthy,” he states, motioning to my arms.
