A Clean Getaway

“What happens if you touch me?” Nell asks, her big eyes bright and warm and everything that Theo isn’t.

“I never touch anybody,” Theo says, and turns away, fists balled up so tight she can feel her nails scoring her skin even through the fabric.

The last time I touched you, I lost you, she thinks, but will never say; I lost you and I can’t let it happen again.
