Excerpt
Camryn shrieks and I start laughing as
we dash away from the cows and toward the car.
“Awww, shiiiit!” I yell when I step in a huge pile of it.
Camryn cackles with laughter and we both
practically stumble the rest of the way through the field, me trying to scrape
the shit off the bottom of my shoe while running at the same time and Camryn’s
flip-flops getting caught on the ground trying to keep up with her feet.
“I can’t believe that just happened!”
Camryn laughs as we finally make it back to the car. She arches her body over
forward and props her hands on her knees, trying to catch her breath.
I’m out of breath, too, but I still
relentlessly scrape the bottom of my shoe on the asphalt. “Dammit!” I say,
rubbing my foot back and forth.
Camryn jumps up on the hood of the car,
letting her legs hang over the front. “Can we finally say that we did it?” she
asks with laughter in her voice.
I stand still finally and catch my
breath. I look at her, at how beautiful and bright that smile of hers is and I
say, “Yeah, babe, I think we can safely mark it off our list.”
“Good!” she says.
Then she points behind me. “Do it on the
grass,” she says with one side of her mouth pinched into a hard line. “You’re
just spreading it around doing it like that.”
I hop over into the grass and start
rubbing my foot back and forth again. “Since when did you become an expert on
shit?”
“Better watch your mouth,” she warns,
getting into the driver’s seat.
“What are you going to do?” I taunt her.
She starts the Chevelle and revs the
engine a few times pressing on the gas. There’s a cruel gleam in her eyes. She
props her left arm across the top of the open window and next thing I know
she’s driving slowly past me.
I give her the warning eye, but her grin
just gets bigger.
“I know you won’t leave me here!” I
shout as she goes past me.
Surely
she wouldn’t….
She gets farther away and at first I
call her bluff and just stand here, watching her get smaller and smaller…
Finally, I take off running after the
car.
