Chapter 133: Lead the way

　　I miss Ben. It has been nineteen hours since I last saw him. He left school earlier but he’s picking me up from Leah’s house to make up for yesterday. Leah’s parents are not home so we have the whole house to ourselves.

　　There are three boxes of cereal in front of us. It’s a bit wasteful but we don’t really care as we empty the three brands in our bowls. Leah grins at Mira. They are sitting side by side. I am on the opposite side of the table and very much happy with the position.

　　We are all laughing as we munch breakfast. Me. Mira. Leah. They are really cool minus all the kissing that happened last night. I could barely sleep. 

　　“Who do you think will win prom king?” Leah asks. She and Mira are part of the prom committee. 

　　Her girlfriend shrugs. “Don’t know.” 

　　“Probably Calum,” I say.
