It's suspicious when Adam's already gone in the morning before anyone else. By third period it's obvious he never came to school, and when attempted to call, text messages are unanswered and phone calls immediately go to voicemail.

"I know. It has to be important, though. It's not letting me wait this time." And that one is the truth. Even as he speaks, a flash of a creature that shouldn't exist appears at the lamp, and when Adam blinks, it's gone. He gasps at the sighting, but his breathing returns to normal quickly.

"I have to go. I'll call you in a little bit."

No, Adam, sounds of gasping are not exactly settling. But Gansey trusts him, trusts this thing he has to do for Cabeswater. Maybe he trusts in that too much.

"Okay. Be careful," Gansey says again, before the call disconnects. He doesn't like this one bit. He doesn't like how far out of his control it is, and that he still doesn't even know where Adam is.

He calls the others to let them know that Adam is alright and to call off the search parties, then heads back to Monmouth, staying awake for the rest of the night.
