Drew and Stephanie had photography together. They barely spoke. For once, Drew just kept his mouth shut and did not blurt out any number of random forms of bullshit. They did, however, share a small spiral bound notebook which they passed back and forth. Drew opened up about his feelings for Amber, whose hair was growing back after being chopped off the year before, and Theresa. Once he even thought about writing to her about his own sexual assault by a male his age a few years before... but twenty three hours of the day that was still just fragments of repressed and unbearable memories.

Stephanie wrote to him about the nightmares she had every night. On days when she could not cope they would find an excuse to work in the darkroom. She would cry on Drew's shoulder for most of the period. Sometimes she was so hysterical she would punch him in the back of the head repeatedly. He let her take it out on him. He had no idea how else to react other than to be there. For some reason, their teacher never asked why they had no completed work. They never spoke of it.
