the grounds or have those cuffs removed though. Too bad, you were getting really good at that sex magic trick.”
    My cheeks flare up. I must be as red as a cherry. I can’t believe the memories they’ve put in this boy’s head. I’m only fifteen, not some experienced woman. “Dante, how would you feel about slowing things down?”
    “Slowing what down?”
    “Us having sex. Maverick just died, and I don’t—”
    “I understand. You don’t have to say it.” He presses his lips together. I can’t read his expression, but his amber eyes speak of sadness.
    “You aren’t mad?” I whisper.
    He pushes a stray piece of hair behind my ear. “No. I just wish you loved me as much as you do him. I saw the challenge.”
    Tears fall again. “I’m sorry. I didn’t think you guys could see the memories.” At least that’s what Bullock said.
    He kisses my forehead. “Don’t be. Most people weren’t able to see them. I’m a special case. Now, let’s go to dinner. Maybe I can talk the guys into cookies and movie afterwards. We haven’t done that in a while, and I think you need it.”
    He pulls me to him and rolls both of us off the bed. I let out a squeal before we land on a warm cloud of air. Did he do that?

“C” is for Cookie
     

    D inner went by in a blur of small talk and me hardly touching my food. Now we’re walking back to my dorm for cookies and a movie.
    I can’t help but glance over my shoulder at Amr and Horace as we walk back to my dorm. They aren’t touching, or even talking, but I can tell something has happened between them, something that signifies they’re more than friends. Amr no longer has that look of wanting I caught in his eye back at the Orchard, but he does have a happiness dancing in them. I wonder if they’re a couple now in their memories, or if Amr has finally confessed his feelings for him. I never had a chance to talk to him about what I noticed.
    I hope Amr has started to remember his real memories. That’s the only thing that could explain his confusion. If these damn cuffs weren’t on me, I could see if my Angel powers could fix him. I wish I could’ve tried them on one of the guys before all of this started, but I’m at a moot point now. I have to trust in Bullock, that he’ll figure out how to deactivate the magic, so I can have all my powers back. I can’t stand this for much longer.
    At least Perlow was able to get Enid back for me. Why couldn’t they use her from the beginning? What did Roseman want with Jericho following me around all day? Aren’t the Watchers and a P.A. enough? Maybe he wanted someone close, to see if I was truly brainwashed. I doubt the Watchers could pass along that kind of information.
    Sometime during dinner, a new door got put up. The classic beep sounds as I touch the handle. At least I know I’m safe with my security system, well, safe from anyone who isn’t as conniving as Dante; I’m safe around him. He proved that today.
    “Cookies, cookies,” Dante mutters under his breath as he moves past me and into the kitchen. He wastes no time getting out the bowls and ingredients needed for cookies. I lift an eyebrow, a tad surprised at all the things already stocked. I’m not shocked at all by how quickly he makes himself at home.
    Horace starts a movie with his P.A., and Amr takes a seat on one end of the couch. “What should we watch?” he asks.
    ““I wouldn’t mind a classic like a Back to the Future .”“ I swallow hard. That was Maverick’s favorite. He loved Michael J. Fox. We’’d watch the BTTF trilogy a few times a year. Only thing we watched more was anime and dramas. Of course, Dante would be the one to suggest it.
    ““Why are you crying, Avvi?”“ Amr asks.
    I touch my cheek only to find warm tears. “I’m fine. That movie sounds good.” I wipe away the rest of my tears. I have to stop doing this to myself. I need to save my tears for my pillow. I don’t want the guys thinking they need to tip toe around
