章 14: Chapter 14: Skye

##Chapter 14: Skye

Lanie and I are parked at a table on the second floor of the library. We started out studying at the apartment, but there were too many distractions, so we relocated.

It hasn't been a whole week of school yet, and I'm already buried beneath an avalanche of reading material. This is what hitting the ground running looks like. Maybe it's better this way. The busier I am, the less time I have to dwell on my dad's prognosis.

Or Hunter.

Being at the same school is more difficult than I anticipated it would be. Everywhere I go, I catch sight of him. It's like we can't get away from one another. Maybe it's only for a moment or two, but it's enough to force him to the forefront of my brain.

Lanie lifts her arms with a groan and stretches. "This chapter on carbon-containing ligands and molecules is going to be the death of me."

When I give her a blank stare in response, she laughs. "It's for inorganic chem."
