Summary
“I just… I wanna wear short sleeves again. But… but Joel’s gonna think it’s his fault. I-I didn’t think…”
The simple explanation breaks his heart, just a little. Of course she didn’t consider how Joel’s going to react. She’s fifteen, she’s new in town, and she just wants to fit in with the other kids without questions or stares. It shouldn’t be a surprise that she went and maimed herself so she can wear short sleeves.

Summary
The crowd parts as Dina barrels through, her jacket half-on and her boots untied, panic written clear across her features. Terror replaces the momentary relief at seeing her alive and unharmed when he sees how frantic she is. That girl doesn’t panic; not like this.
Before he can take another step, she skids to a stop in front of him. “Where’s Ellie?”
“What—”
“She was covering for me,” Dina chokes out, the words tumbling over each other in her rush to get them out. “I wasn’t feeling well, so she took my shift. Where is she?”
Tommy’s world tilts. Ellie. Inside. The words don’t connect at first, then slam into him so hard that he bends forward, hands bracing on his knees as his vision tunnels. Ellie was inside when the fire broke out, and now…
Not Ellie. Christ, not Ellie.
