“Une seule chose me paraît intelligente à ce moment-là. Je me glisse sous le lit et j’attends, le cœur battant. Je me retiens de lâcher un juron lorsque la porte s’ouvre. Je ne distingue que des baskets et le bas d’un jogging, mais il s’agit sûrement de Jason, ça ne peut être que lui.
Je me mords la lèvre inférieure, en essayant de m’empêcher de trembler.
Je blêmis lorsque son tee-shirt tombe au sol. Il retire ses chaussures, ses chaussettes, et son pantalon suit le même chemin.
Oh, bon sang…
Je plaque une main sur ma bouche pour éviter de faire trop de bruit en respirant. Il suffirait qu’il déploie son pouvoir pour réaliser qu’il y a quelqu’un d’autre dans sa chambre. Je l’entends s’affaler sur son lit et je tressaille. J’ai une vue sur ses chevilles et ses mollets. Il ne va quand même pas rester, si ?
Pourquoi il bouge pas, là…
Le soulagement m’envahit quand il se relève. Mes joues deviennent rouges et une bouffée de chaleur me prend d’assaut lorsqu’il retire son caleçon. Mon corps se met à picoter sous l’angoisse d’être découverte.
Calme-toi, calme-toi, m’ordonné-je.”

“Everything was bleak and gray, the lake dull and lusterless under a thin layer of ice. From so far and so high, it looked like a fogged mirror, and I imagined God reaching down to smear the glass clean with his sleeve.”
