Excerpt:
Camryn shrieks and I
start laughing as we dash away from the cows and toward the car.
“Awww, shiiiit!” I yell when I step in a huge
pile of it.
Camryn cackles with
laughter and we both practically stumble the rest of the way through the field,
me trying to scrape the shit off the bottom of my shoe while running at the
same time and Camryn’s flip-flops getting caught on the ground trying to keep
up with her feet.
“I can’t believe that
just happened!” Camryn laughs as we finally make it back to the car. She arches
her body over forward and props her hands on her knees, trying to catch her
breath.
I’m out of breath,
too, but I still relentlessly scrape the bottom of my shoe on the asphalt.
“Dammit!” I say, rubbing my foot back and forth.
Camryn jumps up on
the hood of the car, letting her legs hang over the front. “Can we finally say
that we did it?” she asks with laughter in her voice.
I stand still finally
and catch my breath. I look at her, at how beautiful and bright that smile of
hers is and I say, “Yeah, babe, I think we can safely mark it off our list.”
“Good!” she says.
Then she points
behind me. “Do it on the grass,” she says with one side of her mouth pinched
into a hard line. “You’re just spreading it around doing it like that.”
I hop over into the
grass and start rubbing my foot back and forth again. “Since when did you
become an expert on shit?”
“Better watch your
mouth,” she warns, getting into the driver’s seat.
“What are you going
to do?” I taunt her.
She starts the
Chevelle and revs the engine a few times pressing on the gas. There’s a cruel
gleam in her eyes. She props her left arm across the top of the open window and
next thing I know she’s driving slowly past me.
I give her the
warning eye, but her grin just gets bigger.
“I know you won’t
leave me here!” I shout as she goes past me.
Surely she wouldn’t….
She gets farther away
and at first I call her bluff and just stand here, watching her get smaller and
smaller…
Finally, I take off
running after the car.
The Edge of Always will be published on November 5, 2013.
