Knowing the jig was up, I decided to go full force with ht as well sleep with me since everyone already thinks you have I prouarantee"

She began to laugh and said, "You are reality challenged No one believes we’re sleeping together"

She didn’t shoot eworthy, so I decided to push a little harder "Well, since you did bring it to er, I’ out what your whole hand can do You can blame yourself for my peaked interest"

She shook her head like she couldn’t believe I would say such a thing to her and said, "If this is the real you, whoever told you to be yourself couldn’t have given you worse advice"

She still had not told ht It’s our last free Friday night for months and I promise to rock your world"

"You know I have a boyfriend, so why are you even asking?"

I placed my open palm over my heart and said, "I’m a hopeless roood at keeping secrets"

She looked thoughtful, like she could be thinking it over, then said, "Sorry, no can do"

I saw Henderson coh the door and I quickly whispered, "Soot away"

She laughed and answered loud enough for ood day, very interesting I found out I like sos I didn’t know I liked"

"I hope you find soht that you didn’t know you liked"

Of course, she would have plans with her boyfriend, but it didn’t stop htly spurned as I was forced to overhear their conversation about going out tonight I stilled, waiting to hear her response to his comment, but she had none

Gretchen ca especially slutty today in a short skirt and low cut shirt She spoke, as she had everyday this week, and I decided to return her friendly affections in an attempt to fish for a reaction from Claire

"Please don’t think I haven’t been noticing because I have," I falsely reassured

I heard the slaainst the table, then heard Henderson ask, "What’s up with you?"

"Nothing, absolutely nothing," she said

I knew better and just as I had hoped, flirting with Gretchen had gotten Claire’s attention To testa step further

"You got plans for tonight?"

Gretchen leaned forward, allowingthat can’t include you I’o to a bonfire at Harrison Cleveland’s Half the school will be there; the cool half that is, and his older brother is buying soo with him, but I can bail on hie and said, "I think you would have a better time with me than Ben Don’t you think?"

I heard the sla Gretchen to juers at Claire and said, "Clulared at her and said, "Slutty much?" in retaliation

"News flash, Claire…a chastity belt is not a fashion statehed

Claire narrowed her eyes and said, "At leastbecause they haven’t seen each other in so long"
