A short history of almost something (Stephie, Jinx)
Stephie had said to Flynn yesterday: It’s time and taken him flying. Today, she was taking a really long, agonised shower and trying to tell herself it’s time again, except this time it was about Jinx.
Because he and Josie were... something, and this was a... something that Stephie had to figure out.
She’d texted Josie before her shower with a how you doing, up for a visit? and got back an almost immediate crap but no. Which was kind of a relief. Stephie would have gone and seen her if Josie had been up for it, but it might have ended in shouting. There was still a large part of Stephie that was firmly stuck on the how dare you stage of being attacked by her best friend.
