I paced the living room for a while.

Running through every memory I could find.

The day I met Riff.

That cute boy named Griffin who had a nice smile and messy hair.

Watching Griffin becomeRiff.

Big. Strong.

Tough like Remi.

The two of them always together.

Getting into trouble together.

Both great at hockey.

That first time I started to sneak around with Riff.

There were feelings.

Lots of feelings.

But then the car accident happened…

And the bus accident.

That one was so horrible.

Riff deemed a hero yet Remi hated that Riff didn’t save the others.

Forever saying that Riff could have saved five or six people instead of just saving him.

It was dark, sad, complicated.

And the secret feelings between Riff and I just mixed in the entire time until they finally exploded now.

The door opened and I froze and turned.

Remi stepped in and dropped his bags.

I waved. “Hey.”

He looked around.

“She went for a walk,” I said. “I offered to leave. She wouldn’t let me.”

Remi’s face was really banged up.

His top lip swollen.

A cut on his nose.

A cut above his left eyebrow.

A bandage on the left side of his chin.
