I sat under the crabapple tree, holding my hands out to catch the falling blossoms. Year Nine was coming to an end, which meant an entire summer without Will or Roanna. Ro and I had each other’s mobile numbers and were friends on Facebook, but Will’s school email was the only way I knew to keep in touch with him.781Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuVwSQlXji

The thought of three months with Dad and The Stepmother and without Will pressed on my chest.781Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OsiuxI237

It took me a moment to realize Will was watching me. I scrambled to my feet, standing before him with pink blossoms still gathered in my hands.781Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2BCfbUqXXb

“Why didn’t you say anything?” I asked.781Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7RyoHNtRE

He smiled and took a blossom from my hand, tucking it behind my ear. “You look so lovely.”781Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFSnNcXxKM

I cleared my throat, unused to hearing such compliments and fished for a new subject. Lewis Choi walked by in a TARDIS-blue shirt reading, “Trust me, I’m the Doctor.”781Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGTAb5bf7R

I gestured to the white t-shirt and black pants Will always seemed to wear. “Is that all you own?”781Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthOnPjcwMf

He looked down and plucked at his shirt. “All my clothing is like this.”781Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1muunjsCHq

“Why’s that?” I said, half-joking. “Some sort of uniform?”781Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡteDsWFwDpV

He nodded and grinned. “Exactly.”781Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKXPuC9HZH
