Aro. Hawken Trent. Polite. Sweet. Such a decent young man. A virgin, too, from what I hear. Hawk never fools around with girls. Probably because Jesus told him not to. So he's playing the hero, protecting another girl from me. He calls me the aggressor. Inadequate. Reckless. A criminal. Call me whatever he wants, I've heard worse. Hawk might try to come between me and my money, only he's never had to fight over food. That's not something a rich, tidy high school kid has the guts for.
Hawk. I surprised her. You should have seen the look on her face. No criminal record, honey, doesn't mean my hands are clean. I'm just good at not getting caught. But this time, it looks like I've gone too far. We're caught in the middle of a crime scene. It's dark out there. The police are coming. We have no choice. We run down the High Street to Quinn's Bakery, where I take Aro to an underground bar that everyone forgot existed decades ago. The doors are locked, the cops have cordoned off the building, not even realizing we're under their noses. For an indefinite period of time, I'm forced to hide in plain sight in the company of a mean girl. Tough. Rude. Dirty. A thief and a criminal. However, lost with her among the many empty rooms, I begin to recognize Aro from a completely different side. She's smart. Courageous. Affectionate. Sexy... Everything changes. It's this place. It has some kind of effect on people. In Shelburne Falls, there's a silly urban legend about mirrors, that you can't put your back to them because they're gateways. And we deliberately stepped into the looking glass. I don't care what the county records say. There was never an underground bar here. This is the Carnival Tower.
