“What's wrong?” | asked in a raspy voice that didn’t sound like my
own.
“We need to talk about a few things before we go further,” Alexander said and cupped my face, gently stroking
my skin with his thumb.
For sreason, | thought he was talking about money. “Well, how much money are we talking about?”
This made his expression close off and he pulled his warm hand away from my face. “Forget it,” he said in a stiff
voice and gently movedaside so that he could get off the ground. As he stood, he brushed leaves and twigs
off his body. “It’s late. We should get back to the hotel.”
Clumsily, | got to my feet and staggered to the side. As | stumbled after him, confusion washed over me. What
had | done wrong? From the way he was walking twenty feet ahead ofand his tense posture, | knew that |
had offended him in sway, but | wasn’t sure how.

| managed to stagger over onto the couch and collapse onto it. In the back of my mind, | heard footsteps and |
recognized them as Ava’s.
My friend's face was above me, but | could barely focus on her. She said something that | couldn’t understand
and she gently shook my shoulders, but all I could do was stare at the ceiling and try not to let the overwhelming
darkness in my head pullunder.

My head roared with a static noise, and I tried to fight it off so that I could focus on what Ava was saying. Finally,
| managed to sit up. Ava ran to geta bottle of water from the mini fridge, and after | took a couple of sips, |
felt a little bit better.
“What happened?” Ava asked, her eyes wide with worry. “Are you alright?”
In a shaking voice, | told her everything that had happened between Alexander andtonight. Even how we
had made out under an oak tree after we ran through a bamboo forest. As | said it out loud, it sounded like | had

After | was done with my story, Ava’s shoulders slumped, and her face relaxed. “Don’t scarelike that!” she
