"Oh."
“I think we belong in the same fraternity.”
“Oh.”
"So, he’s not, right?” he repeated, “Your boyfriend?"
"Like I said earlier, he used to be. Not anymore," I simply replied.
"Good. I just want to get it straight," he said.
He leaned across from the driver seat and kissed me.
Chapter Four
“Life is a collection of experiences – the good, the bad, the ugly, and the wonderful.”
Sedona
The text messages started coming in around 10:15 AM, followed by voicemails, then more text messages.
I was snuggled under my bed covers, ready to switch my body position from left to right. I wanted to wake up; my body loudly rebelled. I was so not on schedule. I would have to rearrange my day planner for today. Ugh.
My phone vibrated on my nightstand. I ignored it. It would stop after three buzzes.
Well, it didn’t.
Aargh.
I let it continue for 5 more buzzes then I grabbed it with my right hand.
My phone lit up when I pushed on a key.
I scrolled down.
Nalee: Call me. Spill!
Tanya: He is HOT! For once, you got it right, girlfriend!
Nalee (again): CALL me!!!!
Kieran: WTH, I go on a swim meet and ur in the headlines?!! Call me, Ace.
505-670-8088: Hey! You’re in the news! (I had no idea who this number belonged to.)
Tanya (again): Call me. NOW!
I also saw 5 missed calls, 2 from Tanya, 1 from Nalee, 1 from Kieran, and 1 from Brennan.
What was happening?
I tried calling Tanya but my call went straight to voicemail. She was probably in some exercise class. I called Nalee but she didn’t pick up either. Kieran was probably in practice so his cell phone would be off.
I was about to check my voicemails when Tanya called back.
“HEY!” She screamed on the phone. My ears were going to explode.
“Dial down, sister. I’m half awake,” groggily, I said.
