    “Ronan's bedroom door burst open. Hanging on the door frame, Ronan leaned out to peer past Gansey. He was doing that thing where he looked like both the dangerous Ronan he was now and the cheerier Ronan he had been when Gansey first met him.

    "Hold on," Gansey told Adam. Then, to Ronan: "Why would he be?"

    "No reason. Just no reason." Ronan slammed his door.

    Gansey asked Adam, "Sorry. You still have that suit for the party?"

    Adam's response was buried in the sound of the second-story door falling open. Noah slouched in. In a wounded tone, he said, "He threw me out the window!"

    Ronan's voice sang out from behind his closed door: "You're already dead!”

You’ve won. I’ve lived my whole wretched life at your mercy, yours alone, and God knows I deserve to die at your hand. You are my only friend. I am undone without you.”

    “Harrow laughed. It was the first time she had ever heard Harrow really laugh. It was a rather weak and tired sound.

    "Gideon the Ninth, first flower of my House," she said hoarsely, "you are the greatest cavalier we have ever produced. You are our triumph, The best of all of us. It has been my privilege to be your necromancer.”

    “Blue,” he warned, but his voice was chaotic. This close, his throat was scented with mint and wool sweater and vinyl car seat, and Gansey, just Gansey.

    She said, “I just want to pretend. I want to pretend that I could.”

    “I'm glad you misdialed."

    "Well. Easy mistake to make," she said. Might do it again." A very, very long pause. She opened her mouth to fill it, then changed her mind and didn't. She was shivering again, even though she wasn't cold with the pillow on her legs.

    "Shouldn't," Gansey said finally. "But I hope you do.”

    “Casually, out of the view of Ronan, making sure Adam was still sleeping, Gansey dangled his hand between the driver's seat and the door. Palm up, fingers stretched back to Blue.

    This was not allowed.

    He knew it was not allowed, by rules he himself had set... She would not see the gesture, anyway. She would ignore it if she did. His heart hummed.

    Blue touched his fingertips.

    Just this--

    He pinched her fingers lightly, just for a moment, and then he withdrew his hand and put it back on the wheel. His chest felt warm.

    This was not allowed.

    Ronan had not seen; Adam was still sleeping. The only casualty was his pulse.
