Excerpt:
THE
EDGE OF ALWAYS 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.
