But every round, someone would float toward the coat closet at the end of the hall.
It wasn't because it was a great hiding spot, but because it was dangerous enough to feel like cheating.
Behind the coats and the old scarves was a small wooden door, the crawl space.
More like, "Don't go in there unless you want spider eggs in your ears," or, "That's where we keep the tax demons." We used to dare each other to knock on it.
Once, my brother opened it a crack just to prove he wasn't scared.
I slammed it shut before he could crawl in.
We both shrieked, laughing.
It wasn't ominous, just grown-up house stuff, off-limits in the same way the breaker box was, or the shed with the rusted hedge trimmers.
We didn't think of it as dangerous.
We didn't think about it much at all.
My brother always counted fast, always made me count slow, and whenever he finished counting, he'd grin ear to ear and shout it like a spell.
"Ready or not." I hear those words now, and my stomach reacts like I'm still 12, like I'm still crouched behind the couch, holding my breath, waiting to be found.
