Unedited Excerpt
A shadow fell across my books, and I sighed, hoping to hell it wasn’t someone who wanted to talk to me, because this essay on evolutionary principals wasn’t going to write itself. I waited for the shadow to leave, or move, or something, but it seemed like I was waiting in vain, and finally, when I couldn’t ignore it any more, I glanced up.
Jonah.
My flight instinct kicked in, but eased almost immediately when I realized it was just Jonah and there was no sign of Miles. Talk about a Pavlov’s dog type reaction.
Jonah was mostly okay on his own, a bit of a dick for watching things go down, but okay when he was solo. Not that we talked because if we were on our own, he would move away to avoid me, and then scurry off in any opposite direction he could find. Only, here he was standing in the light and staring down at me, and I could see his mouth moving.
All I could hear was the chorus of Defying Gravity, and I gestured to my ears to indicate the buds under my layered pink hair.
He nodded and indicated I take them out. Fuck. If I removed them then I’d have to talk to him, and I didn’t have it in me to have a heated chat about whatever made Jonah look so determined.
He stared at me.
I stared back.
Then with a sigh I pulled out the buds and the song stopped.
