CHAPTER TWO

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

"Come on, Sam!" Brady groused. "There's gonna be fireworks!"

"I need to study," Sam said patiently. "I've got a test tomorrow."

Brady rolled his eyes. "Oh, please. You'll ace it, you always do!"

"If I ace it, it'll be because of what I'm doing right now."

Brady fired his secret weapon. "She'll be there."

"She?" Sam froze. "Uh, who's she?"

"Who's she?" Brady snickered. "You know damn well who's she."

(Sparkling blue eyes – warm smile – laughing - spirited)

Someone knocked on the door and Brady grinned at Sam mischievously. "I might've asked her to stop by and pick us up."
