| I wanted to believe what he said was trueI considered the
wordexpatriate, trying to convince myself that I was nothing worse
Ian exhaled loudly enough to make me jump?When Doc sobers up, we'll get him to take a
look at your face He reached over and put his hand under my chin; this time I didn't flinchHe
turned my head to the side so he could examine the wound
?It's not importantI'm sure it looks worse than it is
?I hope so?it looks awful He sighed and then stretched?I suppose we've hidden long enough
that Kyle's clean and unconsciousWant some help with the dishes??
Ian wouldn't chanel leather bag let me wash the dishes in the stream the way I usually didHe insisted that we go
into the black bathing room, where I would be invisibleI scrubbed dishes in the shallow end of
the dark pool, while he cleaned off the filth left behind by his mystery laborsThen he helped me
with the last of the dirty bowls
When we were done, he escorted me back to the kitchen, which was starting to fill up with the
lunch crowdMore perishables were on the menu: soft white bread slices, slabs of sharp cheddar
cheese, circles of lush pink bolognaPeople were scarfing down the delicacies with chanel quilted bag knock off abandon,

Ian was back quickly, and we all ate in silenceThe food tasted so good it was hard to imagine a

he was about to collapseHis eyes struggled to stay open
?Get back to school, kid,? he said to Jamie?Maybe I should take over?
?Go to school,? I told him quicklyI wanted Jamie a safe distance from me today
?I'll see you later, okay? Don't worry about? about anything A one-word lie wasn't quite so obviousOr maybe I was just being sarcastic again

We were just murmuring, barely over a whisper nowNo one paid us any attention
?You can't watch me every second
?Wanna bet??
I shrugged, giving up?I was back at the? the holeWhere I was kept in the beginning
Ian frowned; he didn't like thatBut he got up and led the way back to the storage corridorThe
