Breathe. Relax.

Breathe, I told myself. Relax.

I couldn’t afford to be nervous. Nick would be there soon, and he was my best friend--he would certainly be able to tell if I was freaking the hell out. Plus, I had made him a promise.

And Alyssa Willett never broke promises.

So I clenched my hands into fists and walked back and forth in front of my bed, trying to visualize how tonight’s events would pan out.
