Sunlight dances on the lake’s surface, the boat’s engine humming a steady counterpoint to the shouts and splashes around us. Trevor is trying to dunk Luke over the side. Jack’s new girlfriend, Gabriella, offers you a thin, appraising smile. My hands rest easy on the wheel, steering us into a gentle turn that sends a warm breeze through my hair.
