Summary
Beecher Prep wasn’t like other schools. There were no freshmen or seniors, no ninth or twelfth grade. The upper division was split into four years: H1, H2, H3, H4. The Wonder kids had grown up, finishing their first year as H1s. Now it was the start of summer semester, and in three days they’d cross into H2.
That meant everything. H1 was still “child.” H2 was the line. Once you hit H2, you were expected to be independent, mature... and, more than anything, no longer innocent. Everyone knew H2 was when sex stopped being a distant idea and started being the measure of who you were.
Now it was Monday morning. The new semester had begun. The sun was hot, the courtyard alive, and in three days the H1s would be H2s. Everyone was watching. Everyone was waiting.
