Teaser Tuesday (7)

It's Tuesday today, so obviously it means it's Teaser Tuesday!  I haven't done this in a while (again...).  This is hosted by MizB at Should Be Reading. 

And here are the guidelines (if you want to join in):

•Grab your current read
•Open to a random page
•Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
•BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
•Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

"I hadn't seen Shay in the cafeteria during lunch, and now his regular seat in our afternoon class remained vacant.  I scribbled a few more notes and tried to tell myself that it didn't matter."
