A guy came out of Skyler’s house. The few seconds the door opened the music from the interior became louder. The three of us entered the building.
When I entered, I saw a DJ, strobe lights, a microphone and a small TV on a stand. Totally for karaoke. I loved singing in my room and in the shower. A rap song played. I hated rap music, but a lot of people at my school listened to it. It sucked, but whatever. Some in Skyler’s house wore bikini tops, panties, and boots.

Was I supposed to French kiss like the people here did? I guess it should not have mattered. If he thought I kissed bad, he would have taken back his invitation. I smiled and chugged my drink.
I saw Skyler in the crowd … with Adam. My heart almost stopped. I guess Faith’s premonition did come true. Adam had cheated on Faith. I thought Faith and Adam hung today unless the jerk decided to go out with my sister earlier and go out with Skyler at night-or ditch my sister altogether. Maybe he was what most teens would call a ‘player’, be with two girls at once. “Hi,” Skyler said. “I don’t know you.” Wow, I thought she knew everyone. “I … I’m a friend of Becky’s, Chloe.” I did not know if she knew a
