The engine rumbles down the highway as our crew makes its way to the movie theater in Port Angeles. Ben couldn't come, but the rest of us regulars are here. We chat as usual, or rather, we listen to Jessica. I feel like I'm always listening to Jessica.

"So how was it?' Angela whispers, and we both stare at Jessica.

Loud as can be, she blasts, "It was awful. He slammed into me like a Mac truck."

Jake busts a gut laughing. He's up front with Mike. His suburban is big, but not big enough for wolfy ears. Jake's going to know everything.

"It couldn't have been that bad," I say, trying to save Jessica from herself.

"I'm telling you. And he's not even that big, but it hurt like hell. Never again."

"Was he sweet about it at all?" Angela asks. "Ben was really gentle."

"Ben's a sensitive poet type. Mike's like a dribbling dog, always trying to hump my leg."

"Well, I told you not to wear that dress to prom," I say.

"Ech. I know. I shouldn't have, but my boobs looked so hot."

"And he stared at them all night," I add.

"Whose boobs doesn't he stare at?" Jessica says, giggling.

Angela and I both look down at our smallish breasts, then at each other, and start laughing, too.

"Oh, you know what I mean. And you be happy Jake's not trying to get into your pants. I've seen him in sweats, and, girl, that is not going to feel good."

I shake my head for Jessica but mumble, "feels good to me," unbeknownst to my non-lupine friends.

Jake drops his head in the front to hide his guffaws. Mike looks pleased with himself, like he's the most entertaining thing Jake's ever encountered. It's ridiculous because Jake always steals the attention from Mike, always. Even from Mike's own girlfriend.

We arrive at the theater, and Jessica links arms with Angela, keeping a very confused Mike at bay. Poor boy doesn't know he's never touching Jessica again.

Jake falls into step beside me and takes my hand. "So it feels good, huh?" The words are against my ear.

"Oh, shut up."

"Well, you've never said that before. Not exactly."

"I'm saying it now."

"Why now?"

"I don't know. I guess hearing Jess's sob story makes me appreciate what I have."

"Yeah?"

"Yeah," I say, kissing him softly. "And to be honest, it did hurt for a while."

He grimaces. "But not now?"

I close my eyes and roll my neck, remembering last night. I smirk. "Not at all."

He kisses me again.

"Let's go, guys. Movie. Hello." Mike's irritated.

"Do you really think their biggest issue is that he sexed her up like a Mac truck?"

I shake my head, laughing. "His problem is he's an idiot."

"Think I should give him some tips?"

"In what department?"

He raises an eyebrow.

"No. Save those skills for me and only me."

"Sure, sure. C'mon. Movie. Hello."
