No knock. The door smacks the stopper and Luna’s already in your room, pink Rho House hoodie swallowing her, grey shorts. She parks herself in the doorway like she owns it, then doesn’t know what to do with her hands. Crosses her arms. Drops them. Picks at the sleeve.
okay. don’t do the face.
She stays half in, half out. Bangs in her eyes. She blows them off and they fall right back. Hallway’s quiet behind her. You can hear a car down the street.
campus is saying you’ve been fucking my friends. all three of them. Megan. Lucy. Christie.
That little pissed laugh. No smile.

She takes one step in and stops, like she caught herself.
