โWho knewโฆ thatโฆ thirteen year old girlsโฆ were so goodโฆ at wrestling?โ Cameo gasped out that afternoon in their little cubby beneath the bus. Infinity shook her head as she carefully dabbed away the sweat from around his wound. He hissed through his teeth.
โIt hurts, doesnโt it? Now you know why โrubbing salt in the woundโ is an expression,โ Infinity said sympathetically.ย
โNo, itโs fine,โ he grimaced. She rolled her eyes as she wound a bandage tightly around his arm.
โOh, please. Your arm looked like you cut it open with a dagger. Of course it hurts! Now, sit still.โ She finished off the wrap and tied a small knot. โThere. Please try not to hurt yourself again, okay?โ
โะะพะฝะตัะฝะพ ะผะพั ะดะพัะพะณะฐั. ะัะต ะดะปั ัะตะฑั, ะปัะฑะพะฒั ะผะพั.โ
Infinity lightly smacked his uninjured arm. โYou know I donโt like it when you start talking in Russian!โ
โSorry!โ He held up his hands in defense. โI promise I wonโt use Russian unless my mind is going crazy.โ
She glared at him. โDonโt even joke like that.โ
โOkay, okay. But I can't help it!โ
โWhy not?โ
โI,โ he faltered. โI donโt know. It happens when I get stressed or upset and then I go off and ะพะฝ ะฟัะพััะพ ะฒัะฟะฐะดะฐะตั, ะธ ั ะฝะธัะตะณะพ ะฝะต ะผะพะณั ัะดะตะปะฐัั, ััะพะฑั ะพััะฐะฝะพะฒะธัั ะตะณะพ, ะธ ั ะฝะต ะทะฝะฐั, ะฟะพัะตะผั, ะธะปะธ ะบะพะณะดะฐ, ะธะปะธ-โ
โOkay, youโre okay. Iโm sorry I asked.โ She pulled his head onto her shoulder. He sighed and kissed up and down her neck. She shivered.
โWhat?โ he asked. โYou donโt like when I do that?โ
โNo, I love it. Donโt stop.โ
โYou shivered.โ
โYou give me chills.โ
โWell, you-โ He was cut off by another sharp knock. โAww,โ he groaned, and kicked open the hatch. โWeโre finishing this conversation later!โ
Ethaniel was standing outside, saluting in a too-big army uniform. โTroops are ready for inspection, sir!โ
โAre you serious? Where did you even find that?โ Cameo asked incredulously.
โWell, sir, you know how we said we broke into a Canadian military base? They had a couple of these lying around the helicopter. I borrowed it, General, sir.โ
Cameo sighed and jumped out of the compartment. โGo put on regular clothes like a normal person, you doof. And youโre sure the kids are ready?โ
โWeโve been here nearly a week, Cameo,โ the other boy said, dropping the silly salute. โIf theyโre not ready now, they likely never will be.โ He turned and walked away.
โCameo?โ Infinity slipped out of the bunk. โYou realize weโre going into war, right?โย
A hundred thoughts flooded his head. His brothers hollow eyes; the look of terror on Infinityโs face when he nearly killed her; Harleyโs tearful outburst at the hotel; Charisma choking out an apology as he strangled her; Ethaniel, dying on the back of the snowmobile. All people he had hurt. All people he would keep hurting until this was all over.
โYeah, I do.โ
โWhat if-โ she swallowed hard, โwhat if we lose?โย
โThen we died for the best cause.โ
โAnd thatโs what scares me."
