IT WAS A Thursday afternoon. Soft rays of sunlight cascaded through Katie's window as she laid on her floor, mindlessly throwing a lacrosse ball into the air and catching it.
Two days had passed since Katie and her parents had gone to the Beacon Hills Police Department. In that time, Lydia had been found and brought back to school. Katie heard that Lydia didn't remember a thing, that she was acting just as she always had. Weird instances like that had been happening for a while now.
Another notable event was that a deputy had come to talk to Katie's parents. He told them that there was no concrete reason for them to believe that Katie had burned Keith's face, and that she should try to stay out of trouble from here on out. Katie was set to go back to school on Monday, but until then, she was stuck in her house by her mother's orders.
There was a soft knock at Katie's door.
"Come in," Katie called, not moving. The door clicked open and the face of her father emerged.
"Hey, Kat. Someone's here to see you," he told her.
"Elijah?" Katie asked hopefully.
Her dad pushed the door open further. Rather than seeing a tall brunet boy standing there, Katie saw a blonde girl in a baggy grey sweatshirt.
"Erica?" Katie stood up quickly, tossing her lacrosse ball to the side. "Hi, what are you doing here?"
Before Erica answered, Katie's dad left to head back downstairs.
"The teachers gave me some of the stuff we've been doing this week," Erica said, holding up a stack of papers.
"You can come in," Katie smiled, noticing how Erica was standing right outside the door, being careful not to take a step too far. "Thanks, by the way. I can take those." Katie stepped towards Erica, taking the papers out of her hands. As she did, her fingers brushed against Erica's. She didn't expect such a small touch to fluster her as much as it did. Katie set the papers down on her desk before taking a seat on her bed.
