When Trent dropped me back off at the school, I rushed inside to find Abby. "Hey," I said, out of breath. "I need to stay after today so I can get caught up on all the stuff I missed."
"Yeah, okay." She tilted her head, eyes narrowed. "I can let Mom know."
"Thanks." I smiled, then turned to go to my locker.
I really didn't need anything, but I had to waste some time until my meeting with Isach and Ivy. Thank God I had my own car now and didn't have to rely on Abby.
Once the hallways were mostly empty, I headed out to the student parking lot, which was also nearly empty. I climbed into my SUV and turned on the radio. I still had close to thirty minutes. Ugh. What was I supposed to do? Nerves warred inside of me, making it impossible to sit still.
"Hey." Isach knocked on the window, and I gasped with surprise. He was early.
I pushed the button to put the window down. "Hey," I said, hoping I didn't sound as nervous as I felt. "So, what's going on?"
