Chapitre 53: Chapter 53

"Here, Pearl, can you watch my popcorn please?" I handed her my half-eaten red and white bag of popcorn before she could say no. Townspeople packed themselves into the Pelican Bay High School gym. Every seat in the bleachers held a body and someone had spilled a soda down the aisleway.

Pearl took my bag but not before giving me side eye. "Don’t think because you’re dating Pierce now I’m going to be your maid."

"Ha-ha," I deadpanned, but on the inside I laughed a little. I totally pictured Pearl following me around like a maid. She’d talk way too much while giving her crazy advice and she wouldn’t help around the house. Pearl would be the worst maid ever. "I’ll be right back. I just have to pee."
