I shook my head and said, "She'll forget. All the kids are there, someone will distract her."
I would go back eventually and I would bring the juice boxes she had asked for, but I wasn't going to be in any sort of rush. My muscles were tight and tense, as if I might need to spring into action at any time, and maybe that would turn out to be true, but feeling this restless was beginning to make it difficult for me to just sit around. I had too much energy and the only ways I knew how to deal with it were to move around the Home.
Or to make out with Eddie a little bit.
"Come here," I said, pulling him into the kitchen. No one was inside and it was dark, but the moon was reflecting off the snow outside and sent enough light in through the windows that I could see Eddie just fine. With the door closed behind us, I reached for his other hand, then pulled him close so I could kiss him.
