“I’ll be fine,” I said. “I won’t do anything dumb. I’m going to be totally, perfectly, completely smart and safe and careful.” For some reason, Bobby looked extra tired right then.

Ideally, this would be when I slunk into my room and disappeared forever, hopefully into some sort of enchanted wardrobe full of animals who would solve my life problems and feed me English desserts. But since I was an adult, and I actually didn’t like Turkish delight all that much, I decided to slink in a different direction.

“You want me to get him on the call?” my dad said. “Hold on. Patricia, how do you do a three-way with this thing?” If you’ve never heard your parents use that expression before, let me tell you: it’s a choice experience. (By choice, I mean the stuff nightmares are made of.)

“He’s going to be gay?” Keme asked. “Yes, obviously,” I said. “Actually, is it obvious?” There was a communal look. “That’s not what I meant,” I snapped.

Detective Bobby Mai didn’t have to wear the Ridge County Sheriff’s Office uniform. Detective Bobby Mai got to wear a navy polo that looked incredible against his golden-olive skin and cuffed his biceps perfectly. Detective Bobby Mai got to wear a pair of chinos that did things—good things, wonderful things—for his, uh, rear. Detective Bobby Mai, with his glossy dark hair in a perfect part, with his heart-shaped face and his razor-sharp jawline, with his burnt-bronze eyes—well, Detective Bobby Mai was a snack.

“Well, well, well. Kitty does have claws.” “I guess so,” I said. “And if you don’t leave this kitty alone, I’m going to put you back in the litter box.” (I regretted it as soon as I said it. Like, tremendously.

Millie swiped more iodine onto a cut, and I screamed. “Oh, Dash, I’m so sorry,” she said. “Does it hurt?” “Yes, it hurts,” I said. “That’s why I’m screaming.”

Here’s an interesting tidbit about writers: we might be the most slovenly human beings in existence (think Pig-Pen with his cloud of flies, but we’re in our underwear, and we’re living off grilled cheese and ramen). BUT when it comes time to write, you’ll never find a group of people more determined to clean every bathroom, dust every baseboard, and wash every bowl, cup, and plate in the house.

The paramedic was trying to pry Jonni’s hands off him, but he was having a surprisingly difficult time of it—especially for somebody who had such big biceps. He must have a killer arm workout. I should ask him what he did. Did guys do that? Was that a straight guy thing? You see some guy with massive—let’s say massive quads. And you walk up and say, what? Bro, how’d you get that tight patoot? That seemed more like an invitation to a broken nose. But if I said, Hi, sorry, I know this is weird, but I couldn’t help noticing your arms— Uh, maybe not.

Bobby was on the bed in his grungy white straight-boy socks, striped boxers that had two holes in them, and a Volcom T-shirt that had been bleached by sun and salt until it was practically see-through. Ladies and gentlemen, I’m not made of stone.

“Oh no. I’m not having this conversation with those—” I pitched my voice to carry. “—those meddlers eavesdropping.” Fox booed. Then they hissed. Millie said, “WE’RE NOT LISTENING!”

“You’re all accomplices at this point,” I said. “Keme, Millie, do you want to have a prison wedding? Fox can brew you some toilet wine.” “OH MY GOD! A PRISON WEDDING!” (That wasn’t the response I’d been expecting.)

“I need to chat with Larry now, so why don’t you guys go, um, play?” Keme cracked his neck. (It’s surprisingly terrifying if you’ve never heard an adolescent mini-Hulk do it.) Then he said, “Go play?”
