chaperone us. “Why doesn’t your mother want you in the meet?” I asked now looking over at Savannah who was raking in the money from all her wins. I wished I could join the game. Family issues weren’t my thing.
    “She put me on restriction when sh e caught me making out with Liddy Devonshire in her bedroom.” He laughed and leaned back, crossing his leg over his knee.
    “You’re dating Liddy ?” I knew all about her. She was his original prom date who dumped him, the girl with a big ass that made all the guys excited when they looked at her. I don’t know why guys think it is appealing to talk about other girls they’ve been with. It’s a huge turn off. And Liddy was way too hot for Donny. I could have seen that relationship in middle school, but not now.
    “Not anymore.” H e smiled. “If I was, I wouldn’t be here with you.”
    I was relieved the subject had at least moved away from mothers , but the other stuff confused me. My mind twisted up with thoughts as I unscrewed the lid to the vodka bottle and poured some into my soda. “Why did you stop dating?” Why the hell did I just ask that? Stupid.
    H e looked uncomfortable with the question, but when I held up the bottle to offer him some he smirked and shook his head somewhat amused. “We weren’t in a relationship and now she’s going out with Jake Stevenson.”
    My body tensed. “Jake’s a prick,” I said shifting in my seat.
    “No kidding.” He frowned. I wasn’t sure, but it looked like he start ed to perspire on his forehead.
    I followed Donny’s eyes as he looked over at the other kids. Jake had his hand on Savannah’s shoulder as she cut the deck for the next round. I cringed. Heat rose up from my chest to my cheeks. “You want it, girl. You want it,” I imagined him saying. I wanted to jump up and sock him in the face, but I knew that would not be smart.
    As upset as I felt, I imagined that Savannah loved getting attention from that ass. Like everyone else, she thought he was hot. Savannah hadn’t seen his bad side like I had. If Savannah’s date hadn’t gotten sick at the prom and went home, maybe Jake would have laid off. If he got too friendly, I’d have to step in.
    With that thought, I looked over at Liddy to see if she was angry that Jake was flirting with Savannah, but from a distance, it appeared as if she was busy trying to talk to the new French girls I heard about, Brigitte Couture and Marine Thibault. Oh my—those vixens weren’t even normal.
    Though I kept glancing over at Jake to make sure he didn’t get too friendly with Savannah, the French girls caught my focus over everyone else. I had never seen them close up. They were gazing out into the room in no particular direction, seemingly uninterested in Liddy’s chatter. From where I was at, the rumors were right—they looked like divine creatures with jewels and sparkling trinkets in their long hair. Their bodies were sleek and perfect. And their faces were as stunning as movie stars or super models, but they had a dangerous air that got me wondering about them.
    Donny shook his head in bewilderment. “I love swimming and I don’t think it’s fair that my mom would punish me for doing something so normal like kissing a girl.” His Adam’s apple lifted in his throat.
    Oh boy—back to his mother again. “You’re right.” I responded, not knowing what to say. I was squinting to get a clearer look at the pearl ensemble in Brigitte’s long shiny black hair, but I could not get my focus. I rubbed my eyes. Everything about her looked exotic.
    “My mom is so annoying too, ” he continued, biting his already chewed up nails.
    “What do you mean?” I cringed as I took a drink of my soda and tried to ignore what he was saying. Crap, I wanted this conversation to end. I felt my palms sweating. That was really bothering me.
    “S he’s always singing these dumb country western songs around the house. She thinks she’s going to be the next big star.”
    I
