all anxious to start planning. I love having projects! Plus, if I don’t have something to do, I might end up spending all my time worrying about Yamir.
    â€œGreat, then it’s settled,” Erica says. “Lucy, we’re going to need a pre-event visit at your spa. Okay? Talk to my assistant to set that up.”
    â€œYour assistant?”
    She nods. “Yeah, Zoe Feldman. She’s right here.”
    â€œYou’re Erica’s assistant?” I ask, but she’s too busy typing something into her phone to notice.
    Finally our bus comes and we say good-bye to Erica and Zoe. It almost feels like what just happened is some kind of weird dream. I guess it’s good to be wanted, though. And that’s probably the nicest Erica has been to me since kindergarten. Maybe Zoe is a good influence on her.
    â€œIt’ll be fun,” Sunny says when we’re on the bus. “I mean, we might as well get involved. We’re only going to have one Eighth-Grade Masquerade.”
    â€œYou’re so right, and that’s totally how I’ve been feeling lately,” I tell her.
    â€œExplain?”
    â€œThat we’re only going to be in our last semester of middle school once. And we have to make it awesome. Actually, more than awesome. We have to make it perfect,” I explain.
    She looks at me. “Yeah, but—”
    â€œNo buts,” I say. “We have to.”
    When we get to my house, my parents are in the kitchen drinking coffee.
    â€œHey, Luce. Hey, Sunny,” my mom calls to us. “Happy weekend.”
    â€œHey,” I say back, and Sunny and I go upstairs.
    â€œIs that weird?” Sunny asks when we’re in my room with the door closed. “I mean, having your dad around so much? I know it’s been like this since the summer, but still.”
    â€œNah.” I throw my backpack under my desk. “It’s nice. Just little things, like how he helped me with the math homework the other night. Video-chatting on the computer is great and everything, but it’s much better to go over complicated problems side by side at the kitchen table. I feel really lucky that he’s around.”
    â€œThat’s so great,” Sunny says. “Especially since your dad is really good at math.”
    I run downstairs to grab us some snacks, and when I get back Sunny squeals, “Oh my God, did you see this picture Claudia posted online?” She’s on my bed using my laptop. I run over to see what it is, and there’s a picture of Claudia and Bean smooching in front of some fountain.
    â€œThey’re really in love,” I say. I didn’t like Bean much atthe beginning, but I kind of love him now. He’s a part of the family, and even though I won’t see him for a while, I can’t really imagine things without him.
    â€œThey’re totally gonna get married, right?” Sunny asks. “How cool is that? They’re on their own, in college, in love. It’s like a dream.”
    It’s hard to be jealous of my sister, since I’m so happy for her. And also I kind of feel like things will work out for me one day too. When I’m older. I bet I’ll have a cool boyfriend when I’m in college.
    â€œDo you think Evan and I will go to college together?” Sunny asks.
    â€œI think it’s too soon to tell. You guys have all of high school to get through.”
    â€œThat’s true.”
    â€œSo, what should we do tonight?” I ask. “Annabelle said something about going to see that movie about the magician. But I’m not sure I feel like it. There’s always Friday night rec, but we just went last week.”
    â€œYeah, but we can go again.”
    Friday night recreation is an Old Mill tradition. I guess parents were worried their kids would become delinquents, so they had the teachers open the middle school to let kids hang out there. Some play basketball and others just sit
