No one sat with me as I took my lunch in the cafeteria. I sat alone until the bell range before heading to health class. I sat down and then Amy sat next to me.
“So are you going to the dance tonight?” she asked.
I nodded.
“Well be sure you vote my costume as the best, or else.”
I frowned. “Are you going to let me in the bathroom at the dance?” I asked.
She laughed. “If I have a good time, then so do you.”
I sat through health as the teacher droned on and on about cigarette smoking and the dangers of drugs. The day couldn’t end soon enough. I was tempted to call Jimmy and get him to take me home early, but then I thought Maria’s parents might say something about it.
