There were two things in life that scared the ever-loving crap out of me.
Waking up in the middle of the night and discovering a ghost with its
transparent face shoved in mine was one of them. Not likely to occur, but still
pretty damn freaky to think about. The second thing was walking into a
crowded classroom late.
I absolutely loathed being late.
I hated for people to turn and stare, which they always did when you
entered a classroom a minute after class started.
That was why I had obsessively plotted the distance between my
apartment in University Heights and the designated parking lot for commuter
students over the weekend on Google. And I actually drove it twice on
Sunday to make sure Google wasn’t leading me astray.
One point two miles to be exact.
Five minutes in the car.
I even left fifteen minutes early so I would arrive ten minutes before my
nine-ten class began.
What I didn’t plan for was the mile long traffic back-up at the stop sign,
because God forbid there was an actual light in the historical town, or the fact
there was absolutely no parking left on campus. I had to park at the train
station adjacent to the campus, wasting precious time digging up quarters for
the meter.
“If you insist on moving halfway across the country, at least stay in one of
the dorms. They do have dorms there, don’t they?” My mom’s voice filtered
through my thoughts as I stopped in front of the Robert Byrd Science
Building, out of breath from racing up the steepest, most inconvenient hill in
history.
Of course I hadn’t chosen to stay in a dorm, because I knew at some point,
my parents would randomly show up and they would start judging and start
talking and I’d rather punt-kick myself in the face before subjecting an
innocent bystander to that. Instead, I tapped into my well-earned blood
money and leased a two-bedroom apartment next to campus.
Mr. and Mrs. Morgansten had hated that.
And that had made me extremely happy.
But now I was sort of regretting my little act of rebellion, because as I
hurried out of the humid heat of a late August morning and into the airconditioned brick building, it was already eleven minutes past nine and my
astronomy class was on the second floor. And, why in the hell did I choose
astronomy?
Maybe because the idea of sitting through another biology class made me
want to hurl? Yep. That was it.
Racing up the wide staircase, I barreled through the double doors and
smacked right into a brick wall.
Stumbling backward, my arms flailed like a cracked-out crossing guard.
My over-packed messenger bag slipped, pulling me to one side. My hair flew
it front of my face, a sheet of auburn that obscured everything as I teetered
dangerously.
Oh dear God, I was going down. There was no stopping it. Visions of
broken necks danced in my head. This was going to suck so—
Something strong and hard went around my waist, stopping my free fall.
