As promised, Cody followed Pepper’s lead across the skate park. While he’d already decided he liked this place because Pepper had brought him along to enjoy it, one look around told him it was the kind of place he’d enjoy for his own sake, too. Vastly different from the downtown parks he’d grown...

It took her a second to figure out what exactly she was going to do, but Pepper didn’t disappoint the way Cody probably had for actual years. He didn’t meditate on his own stupidity now, though.

"Go, don't you go, won't you stay with me one more day? If we get through one more night – If we get through one more night." Cody had been ready for an hour. He could tell, because the album had looped since he’d actually finished getting ready. And then gone halfway back through. He may have...
