The alarm stings my ears. "Ugh." I slam my hand on the bell. Obviously, I pick my phone up first.

Missed Call from Stiles.

I call him back and his hoarse, tired voice fills the speakers. "Hey."

Ugh. He's so hot. "Hi. I saw you called me."

He laughs. "Yeah. Well, I called you last night at 11. Now you're calling me at 5 A.M."

"Oh crap. Sorry. I just saw your phone number and-"

"It's fine." I hear his smile through his voice. "You just forgot it isn't a school day. I was calling about last week, Christmas, when we found Ariel. I remembered the time that your grandma's record called you Ariel. Do you know anything about this?"

My voice disappeared and my mind faltered. "I--don't know." I swallowed. "I have to go--"

"At 5 in the morning?"

"I-uh-" My thumb presses the End Call button and silence engulfs me. "I hate myself."
