“Maybe it’s the lack of sleep from texting Rooks half the night or maybe the adrenaline hasn’t drained from my body yet, but that goofy-happy feeling from the flamingo has amplified. I turn over on the air mattress and stare at the fluffy pink stuffed animal. She smiles back at me, completely enamored by all things Rooks Carter. She may be an inanimate object, but I know she’s enamored. Even after reading about Seth’s secret girl and her summer of lost wishes, I can’t shake this giddy feeling. I... have to find a way to erase this sappy grin off my face before I encounter Mom this morning. She was in bed last night when I got home, but I poked my head into her room to let her know I was home safely and had locked all the doors. She’s probably on her second cup of coffee by now. She’ll be more than alert enough to pick up on the spring in my step, or whatever lame term she would use for it. I want to soak up this moment, though, like a sudsy bubble bath before all the bubbles fade into the water.MoreLessRead More Read Less
