I’m trying to be the mature one here, but Cal keeps running away before I have a chance to say sorry.
I’m not running away, asshole. I’m just busy.

Doing what?
Since when do you care?

Iris
*Facepalm.*
Rowan sends me a private text after. I explain what I need while Lana double-checks her shopping list.
Rowan
Are you sure this is a good idea?
Nothing has felt more right in a long time.
I mean it in more ways than one—not that my brother would understand. Spending time with Cami and Lana makes me feel whole in a way I haven’t felt in years, and I’d do just about anything to keep it that way.
Rowan
Zahra already volunteered to plan the best birthday ever. Her words, not mine.
If there is one person I trust to give Cami the ultimate Dreamland experience, it would be none other than Zahra. She is the biggest Dreamland fan ever and the Top Creator in the park.
Thanks in advance.
Rowan
Whatever it takes to keep the smile on your face, pretty boy.
An idea dawns on me, and I shoot him another message.
Whatever it takes?
Rowan
I’m going to regret saying that, aren’t I?
I have one more favor to ask.
I follow up with a Hail Mary request, knowing there is a chance he won’t be able to pull it off on such short notice.
I understand if you can’t…
Rowan
Give me forty-eight hours.
Cal and Cami are chatting away as I drive down Main Street. Cami hasn’t stopped asking him questions about Dreamland ever since I agreed to the trip at the grocery store, and he has been a champ while answering every single one.
