And then I see the way he’s staring at her. The way I once stared at light dancing through the leaves of a tree.

Familiar from somewhere
“Are you sure? The bookstores in this town are pretty good because of all students who come through. We could go to all of them if you want. Just don’t let me go in with you, otherwise—-“
“I know. You’ll buy everything.”
He smiles. A smile so kind I almost cry.

I'll go to the diner on my way there. Where Ava and I always go in the morning. Where she drinks her spiked gunpowder tea and draws the world as a series of zombies. Her sky is full of lightning. Her sun has teeth. She gives all the spoiled Warren girls gills, fangs, wings. She sets the frat boys on fire. While she does this, I stare at New England. Sometimes I write. Sometimes I just stare.

I wake up with my face mashed into my sagging mattress, still in my clothes from the night before. There's a red cloak on my shoulders, a smell of cinnamon, baked lemony sugar, all the twee things of this world rising from my own flesh, hovering in the stale air around me.

"Ava, Max isn't real." As the words leave my lips, I stare straight ahead at the dripping trees.
"What do you mean he isn't real?"
I take a breath. "I mean, I made him."
She laughs.
"I'm serious," I whisper.
"You made him," she repeats.
I nod. "Yes. From a bunny." Closing my eyes. It's all too terrible.
"You made him from a bunny."
I nod again. "Don't hate me," I plead. "Please don't hate me."
