No Matter What (2012)
“He had some rights here, didn’t he? Shit, yeah, he did.
He tried to catch her between classes; she was as quick as a minnow in a lake, darting away. After school—she never again made the mistake of leaving without having surrounded herself with girlfriends first. Postdance—more friends, or else her mother or another girl’s mother was waiting in the car out front. Her phone never seemed to be on anymore, but he sent texts.
Cant we talk?
The only response he got was: When Im ready so ...quit stalking me.
Sure. He sent back: Ill quit stalking when you talk.
She ignored that one.
The weird thing was, he didn’t know what it was he needed to say, or to hear from her. Only that he felt like his skin had shrunk and now it itched and prickled and he felt trapped inside it. It was a little like when he’d thought sex with her would make him feel all better, but…different, too.MoreLess
