practice, the distinct pool smell stubbornly clung to her hair.<br />

Isaac stepped aside, and Emily walked into the house. The living room smelled like apple and peach<br />

potpourri.<br />

There was the picture <strong>on</strong> the mantel of Isaac, his mom, and Minnie Mouse at Disney World. The floral<br />

couch was covered with lacy pillows Mrs. Colbert had embroidered, bearing messages like Hugging Is<br />

Healthy and Prayer Changes Everything.<br />

Isaac pulled at <strong>on</strong>e of the sleeves of Emily’s coat, then the other. When he turned to open the closet<br />

door,<br />

she heard a creak coming from the mudroom. Emily froze, her eyes round. Isaac turned to her and<br />

touched<br />

her hand. “Why so jumpy? The press isn’t here, I promise.”<br />

Emily licked her lips. The press had been hounding her and her friends c<strong>on</strong>stantly, and earlier that day,<br />

she’d heard the latest: that the Thomas family had received an e-mail from Ian, and that Emily and the<br />

others<br />

had made up seeing Ian’s body in the woods. That obviously wasn’t true—but what was? Where had Ian<br />

g<strong>on</strong>e? Was he really alive…or did some<strong>on</strong>e just want them to think he was?<br />

More than that, Emily couldn’t stop thinking about the Jas<strong>on</strong> DiLaurentis incident <strong>on</strong> Sunday night. She<br />

had no idea what she would’ve d<strong>on</strong>e if Isaac hadn’t been with her. Every time she c<strong>on</strong>sidered the<br />

possibility<br />

of facing Jas<strong>on</strong> al<strong>on</strong>e, she shuddered with fear.<br />

“Sorry,” she said to Isaac, trying to snap out of her mood. “I’m okay.”<br />

“Good,” Isaac said. He took her hand. “Since we have the place to ourselves, I thought I’d show you my<br />

bedroom.”<br />

“Are you sure?” Emily glanced at the photo of Isaac, his mom, and Minnie Mouse again. Mrs. Colbert<br />

had a<br />

policy that Isaac wasn’t allowed to bring any girls into his room—ever.<br />

“Sure I’m sure,” Isaac answered. “My mom will never know.”<br />

Emily smiled. She had been curious about his bedroom. Isaac squeezed her hand and led her up the<br />

stairs.
