    “Derek caught my arm again as I started to move--at this rate, it was going to be as sore as my injured one.
    "Dog," he said, jerking his chin toward the fenced yard. "It was inside earlier."
    Expecting to see a Doberman slavering at the fence, I followed his gaze to a little puff of white fur, the kind of dog women stick in their purses. It wasn't even barking, just staring at us, dancing in place.
    "Oh, my God! It's a killer Pomeranian." I glanced up at Derek. "It's a tough call, but I think you can take him.”

    “He pivoted, gaze following me as I crossed to the shower and turned on the cold water, so it would drown out our conversation without steaming up the room.
    Great," he muttered."Now they're going to think we're showering together. Maybe we can just tell them we were washing off the crawl space dirt and trying to conserve water.”

    “You were just worried about me."
    An exhale, relieved that I had understood. "Yeah"
    I turned. "Because you think I'm worth it"
    He put his fingers under my chin. "I absolutely think your worth it."
    "But you don't think you are."
    His mouth opened. Shut.
    "That's what this is about, Derek. You won't let us worry about you because you don't think you're worth it. But I do. I absolutely do.”

    “So I was right, wasn't I? It's still you, even in wolf form.'
    He grunted.
    No sudden uncontrollable urges to go kill something?'
    He rolled his eyes.
    Hey, you're the one who was worried.' I paused. 'And I don't smell like dinner, right?'
    I got a real look for that one.
    Just covering all the bases.”

    “You saw a ghost, didn't you?" he said.
    To my relief, I managed to laugh. "Hate to break it to you, but
    there's no such thing as ghosts."
    Huh."
    His gaze traveled around the laundry room, like a cop searching
    for an escaped convict. When he turned that
    piercing look on me, its intensity sucked the backbone out of me.
    What do you see, Chloe?"
    I -I-I don't s-s-s-"
    Slow down." He snapped the words, impatient. "What do they
    look like? Do they talk to you?"
    You really want to know?"
    Yeah."
    I chewed my lip, then lifted onto my tiptoes. He bent to listen.
    They wear white sheets with big eye holes. And they say 'Boo!'" I
    glowered up at him. "Now get out of my
    way."
    I expected him tosneer. Cross his arms and say, Make me, little girl.His lips twitched and I steeled myself, then I realized he was smiling.Laughing at me.
    He stepped aside. I swept past him to the stairs.”

    “You'll wrest a burning sword from an angel, but you're afraid of bats?"
    "I'm not afraid of them. I just don't like them. They're...furry. Flying things shouldn't be furry. It's not right. And if I ever meet the Creator, I'm taking that one up with him."
    "That I'd like to see. Your one and possible only chance to get the answer to every question in the universe, and you ask, 'Why are bats furry?'"
    "I will. You just wait.”

    “Whatever it is," I said, "the point is moot because as long as I'm on these pills, I can't make contact to ask."
    Derek ... snapped, "Then you need to stop taking the pills."
    Love to. If I could. But after what happened last night, they're giving me urine tests now."
    Ugh. That's harsh." Simon went quiet, then snapped his fingers.
    Hey, I've got an idea. It's kinda gross, but what if you take the pills, crush them and mix them with your, you know, urine."
    Derek stared at him.
    What?"
    You did pass chem last year, didn't you?"
    Simon flipped him the finger. "Okay, genius, what's your idea?"
    I'll think about it. ..."

    ***

    Here," Derek whispered, pressing an empty Mason jar into my hand. He'd pulled me aside after class and we were now standing at the base of the boy's staircase. "Take this up to your room and hide it."
    It's a ... jar."
    He grunted, exasperated that I was so dense I failed to see the critical importance of hiding an empty Mason jar in my room.
    It's for your urine."
    My what?"
    He rolled his eyes, a growl-like sound sliding through his teeth as
    he leaned down, closer to my ear. "Urine. Pee. Whatever. For the testing."
    I lifted the jar to eye level. "I think they'll give me something
    smaller."
    ...
    You took your meds today, right?" he whispered.
    I nodded.
    Then use this jar to save it."
    Save . . . ?"
    Your urine. If you give them some of today's tomorrow, it'll seem like you're still taking your meds."
    You want me to . . . dole it out? Into specimen jars?"
    Got a better idea?"
    Um, no, but ..." I lifted the jar and stared into it.
    Oh, for God's sake. Save your piss. Don't save your piss. It's all the same to me."
    Simon peeked around the corner, brows lifted. "I was going to ask what you guys were doing, but hearing that, I think I'll pass.”

    “Murder? You mean he's dead?"

    “What’s this?” Nick said. “Bedtime?”
    No one answered him. I kept my eyes closed.
    “You look positively content, Clayton,” Nick continued, thumping down on the floor. “That wouldn’t have anything to do with the fact that Elena is cuddled up with you, would it?”
    “It’s cold in here,” I murmured.
    “Doesn’t feel cold.”
    “It’s cold,” Clay growled.
    “I could start a fire.”
    “I could start one, too,” Clay said. “With your clothes. Before you get them off.”

    “When the subject of kids first came up years ago, I'd joked that the only thing I could imagine worse than me as a mother was Clay as a father. I couldn't have been more wrong. Clay was an amazing parents. The guy who couldn't spare a few minutes to hear a mutt's side of the story could listen to his kids talk all day. The guy who couldn't sit still through a brief council meeting could spend hours building Lego castles with his kids. The guy who solved problems with his fists never even raised his voice to his children. And if sometimes Clay was a little too indulgent, a little too slow to discipline, preferring to leave that to me, I was okay with it. He supported and enforced my decisions and we presented a unified front to our children, and that was all that mattered.”
    Kelley Armstrong, Frostbitten
