Room 302, Wednesday Afternoon

Alana didn't know about sex pollen, but she had noticed that this week was unusually ... frustrating, and her workouts weren't taking the edge off at all.

And now, to top it off, she had a vid from Even, her new stepmother. (If you could call her that. The chick was barely five years older than Alana, and Alana was choosing to regard Even's existence in her home as the result of a persistent delusion on her father's part that was guaranteed to end any minute now, please.) Even was perky as ever, chirping out news about Alana's dad's latest trip for work and what the gossip mags were saying -- and oh, by the way, wasn't it so cool her school was having a parents weekend? She couldn't wait to visit, although Alana's dad was, of course, too busy with work. (But he sent his love, Even burbled.)

Alana clicked off the vid and dove for the D. Oswald Heist paperback she kept closest to her bed, flipping to find her place in the story almost frantically. Maybe that would give her something less completely nauseating to think about.

"I'm pretty sure I don't snore at least," he replied with a grin. "My brother would never stop making fun of me if I did."

"Yeah," Raleigh said with a grin that wasn't tinged with anything even hinting on flirtation. Thank god. "It'll be nice to see someone from home. You got family coming in?"

"You could come hang out with Yancy and me if it sucks too bad." Yes, his name was Yancy. Raleigh got the good name.

Raleigh took a moment to remember what the question was, mouth open slightly as he looked at her. "Uh, no. No, he'll understand."

He hoped.

"I'm not normally--" This bad. Honest!

That got a startled little laugh out of him. "Twitchy is a good word for it."
