      We all head home just after that ‘demonstration’ and I’m pissed. Luna doesn’t bother asking what’s wrong because she knows I didn’t like that move. We all walk back to my house except Chastidy who heads home and so does Cameron.

      Ricky gives Luna a kiss on the cheek and Connor does the same with me and they go back to their house. Luna and I go into my house alone. My dad is at work and my mom’s shopping. It’s 5:30 so we decide to make a small dinner of grilled cheese and vegetables. Luna prepares the raw vegetables while I cook the grilled cheese.

      Neither of us has said anything until Luna speaks up, “That bothered you didn’t it?”

      I don’t say anything.

      “She still seems nice.” Says Luna.

      I sigh and put the food on plates for us, “You wouldn’t understand Luna.”

      I was right, she didn’t understand. I told her everything that happened but she didn’t believe me. Shortly after we ate, she went home.

      A week later, everything changes. I decide to text Connor since it’s only 8:00. The thing is…I get a text back that’s very worrying.

To: Oceana

I need to tell you something. In person.

---

      Oh the things that are going through my head! That is one of the scariest sentences someone can be told. We agree to meet at my house.

      When Connor arrives, we go to my backyard. I sit on the swing hanging from a tree and he stands.

      He won’t look at me.

      Connor runs his hand through his hair and he has a worried look on his face.

      “Connor,” I say seriously, “what’s going on?”

      “Well, uh…” stutters Connor, “you see…”

      “Connor, just say it!” I say loudly and full of worry.

      I look directly into his eyes and he looks into mine. He doesn’t have to say anything for me to know something bad happened. His eyes are full of fear and regret. But what did he do?
