Chapter 16
Clack, clack.
I roll over and pull the covers over my head. The noise continues. I don’t want to get out of bed. Not only do I have a raging headache, but I can’t bear to think about running into Bash after I kissed him and he ran off, full of regret.
Clack, clack!
I sit up and glare at Halen. “Why are you being so noisy?”
She glances over at me, wide-eyed. “What am I doing?”
“You’re clacking. It’s louder than a jackhammer.”
“A what?”
I close my eyes and rub my temples. “Something loud on the land.”
“I was just rearranging my makeup. It’s barely making any noise. Are you okay?”
“My head is killing me.”
She arches a brow. “From what?”
“I don’t know.” I think back. “Did someone spike the punch?”
“Nope. I feel fine. Nobody else mentioned anything either when I went out there.” She nods toward the door.
Then I remember drinking from Bash’s cup. Maybe he slipped something in his punch and didn’t tell me.
He’s so frustrating.
“You’d better get dressed. It’s almost time to be at the dining hall.”
I groan.
“Maybe I have something for a headache. Let me look.”
“Don’t bother. I don't want to take anything on an empty stomach. I’m going back to sleep.” I fall against my pillow.
“You don't want lunch?”
I bolt upright. “It’s not breakfast?”
“Not at noon.” She lifts a brow. “I know you’re still catching up from sleep lost out in the woods, but you really should eat. Come back and take a nap if you want.”
I force myself out of bed. Why is the light so loud? “Did you see Bash at breakfast?”
“No. You gonna tell me what happened between you two?”
“We had some fun dancing before he left.”
She lifts a brow. “You’re leaving out some serious details, girl.”
“I kissed him.”
Her mouth drops open. “You didn’t!”
“I did.” I open my closet and dig around for a hoodie.
