No answers were forthcoming, his friend pushed past him with uncharacteristic brusqueness, even for him, and that was how Caleb knew something was really wrong. And it was probably Kate. Pogue and Kate hadn't stopped fighting since she got out of the hospital and he wouldn't tell her what happened to Chase or why he'd disliked the other boy. By the last few weeks even Tyler had been trying to get him to talk to her about it. But no one would say anything and now it had come down to this.

"Hey, I'm dripping all over your floor."

"Yeah, you'd better come on upstairs." Caleb didn't give a damn about the floor. He was worried about his friend.
