Suddenly, caps are flying in the air, and I realize belatedly that I haven’t thrown mine

I’m not with it today

I pretend to toss mine off, but I really just lift it off and drop it back in my lap

Everyone stands and the crowd in the bleachers descends onto the football field

I lift my head in search of Rae and Nova I spot Nova headed back toward me from the front so I wait for her

“We did it” She sht and her freckles standing out across her nose

“We did,” I echo

“Let’s find Rae” She loops her arh the crowd

We finally meet up with Joel and Rae, and then we all look for everyone else

I spot Xander and take off running into his arms

“Whoa” He chuckles, catching me

He liftsagainst my palms, and lower my head to kiss him

“What was that for?” he asks, his eyes sparkling with amusement

“Because I can,” I answer as he sets me down
