There was silence for a few awkward moments after that. No one knew what to say. I just told half my life story to these guys I practically just met. It was so wrong. But why did it feel so right? I had never spilled my guts before. But here I was.

Finally Magnet spoke. "Wow."

I looked at him flatly. Really? Thats what he had to say? But really, I couldn't blame him. What would I have said?

I shook my head. "Are we gonna play more or what?"

X-ray kind of blanked for a second. "Um. Do you want to?"

I rolled my eyes. "Suddenly I have a choice?"

He looked at me flatly, and I smirked at him.

"Well, I'm going to bed. G'night."

All the boys mumbled their good-nights to me, and we headed to our separate cots for the night.

It was three o'clock in the morning when I woke up. I felt like a fool as I thought of all the stuff I told them last night. I told them half my secrets and that was something I'd only done once before.

Shit.
