She starts to swim up, but the light from her head lamp catches a patch of clear water about fifteen feet away.

She stops, seeing the driver’s side of a vehicle come into view.

The car…

It’s there.

And then a cloud of mud passes with the current, and the vehicle disappears again.

She thinks about swimming over but decides not to. Popping back up through the surface, she swims quickly for the Falls side of the river and climbs back up to the bridge, walking for the truck. Pushing the lever, she reels in the rope attached to the chain that’s attached to the crane. Peering over the side of the bridge, she watches the old school locker rise from the river, spilling water from its cracks.

Bringing it in, she guides it onto the truck bed, rips off her head lamp, and picks up her flashlight. Getting into the truck, she makes a U-turn on the bridge and drives back into the Falls.

It doesn’t take long. She’s a planner. Accounts for all challenges. She knows which roads to take in order to avoid cops. She brought a rolling cart to load the locker onto. She knows which door in the senior hallway of Shelburne Falls High School doesn’t lock.

She doesn’t need help. Doesn’t need pity.

An hour later, she stares at her mom’s locker back in the display case where it belongs.

“Sorry, Dylan,” Thomasin says, wiping off the water under her chin. “But I think I’ll let Kade have his fun, after all.”

She slides the glass door shut and walks away, letting out a long breath.

“I’ll be fun, too, someday,” she whispers.
