“I use conditioner,” Poppy says.
I nod, shoving my hands in my pockets. “Me too. Sorry, Cy.” Then I turn away. “I’m heading back to undo the damage you just did,” I call over my shoulder as I move toward the front door. “Don’t go too far. I might bring over some eclairs later.”

omg did you guys get ARRESTED last night???
for egging the Callister’s house?
I’m ashamed to call us sisters
Me
“arrested” is a strong word
Aurora Borealis
We were not arrested. We were taken to the station and given a stern warning. That’s all. You know Bert’s a big softy anyway.
But how did you know that? You’ve been at dance camp since Monday!
Dancing Queen Jules
You’re lucky you’re not 18 until next week
I called Mom this morning and she was really grumpy so I asked her what happened
I feel so bad!
Me
What could you POSSIBLY feel bad about?
Dancing Queen Jules
I feel bad for Mom that she’s annoyed!
And I feel bad for the Callisters!!!
I do not feel bad for you two
Why did you egg their house?
Me
JP made you cry, Jules. That’s not something we take lightly.
But also.
Aurora Borealis
Yeah, BUT ALSO.
You are fourteen. You’re not allowed to date anyone.
