章 183: Chapter 183: Best Boyfriend Ever

ZANDER AND I SPENT the rest of class mind-speaking, moving on to discuss the crazy things we'd learned from Dr. Frankler. The idea that life existed on other planets wasn't a new one, but knowing that it did for certain, and knowing and interacting with someone from another planet - that was different. To think I was part alien. It explained why I'd always felt like a freak. A piece of me didn't belong here. But the rest of me did. I'd probably always feel out of place.

"What are you going to do about Peter?" I asked.

"Nothing," he said. "At least for now. He returned home."

"Good riddance." I knew I was being snarky, but we were all better off with Peter gone. However, I sensed Zander had mixed feelings.

"We should make the most of Peter's absence," I said, thinking that at least we wouldn't have to worry about him spying on us or messing with our friends' heads.

"My place does have a hot tub," he said, peeking at me over his shoulder and raising one eyebrow suggestively.
