With Uncle Victor at the helm, Erin and her best friends, Spam and Lysa, are prepping a new classroom for CSI summer camp, where they will serve as camp counselors.

Today begins the normal last three weeks of my sophomore year of high school. I’m pacing between my bedroom and the tree-shaded balcony that overlooks the street, watching for Journey’s battle-scarred van to rumble into view.
The warm, lazy air makes me glad we’re finally in summer countdown. Soon, I’ll be able to spend my mornings lounging in bed with the French doors wide open and a stack of books I’ve been dying to read.
I check my phone again.
He’s not that late. Maybe only a minute or two. I’m just anxious.
A few weeks ago, I thought I knew everything there was to know about him and he didn’t even know I existed. Now, I’m officially his girlfriend. He said it right out loud in the TV interview. After those words came out of his mouth I couldn’t answer any more questions. But it was worth it.
I’m wearing a new green tank top, which brings out the color of my eyes, and a pair of white shorts. The outfit may not look like that much of an effort, but before I started hanging out with Journey my morning routine was to pick the least rumpled navy blue T-shirt out of the laundry hamper—my T-shirts were all navy blue because that paired best with jeans, and navy blue and denim blend really well into the background.
It wasn’t that I didn’t have a sense of style before Journey. It’s that my normal back then meant not standing out. When a tragic event steals your childhood, and puts your name in the headlines for weeks and months, you become that girl forever. Now I’m hoping that I can quietly morph into just a girl.
The worn-out shocks on Journey’s van squeal as he pulls into the driveway. His brakes harmonize in protest.
I grab my purse and backpack. The small, round wooden heels of my sandals tap out my excited departure on the stairs. I blast through the kitchen, past Uncle Victor, who is camped out at the table with a cup of coffee and some paperwork.
“Bye. See you later.” I barrel toward the back door.
I glance back in time to see him grin and hoist his cup.
The van has added a new, asthmatic wheeze to its soundtrack and the passenger door complains loudly as Journey opens it for me from inside. His hand remains there to help pull me up into the belly of this ancient beast. I slide into the seat and lean across the wide-open space. He meets me halfway and plants a quick peck on my lips.
Humph.
