"Oh," G said, "um, ok."
"G?" I looked at her, "do you know something I don't?"
"Does knowing Brindy count?"
"YES!" I yelled. I jumped up, "what the hell, G? HOW do you know Brindy? She lives here, in California, not in Brooklyn!"
"You do know she just moved here, don't you?"
"I sort of guessed, but I wasn't sure. Go on." Ooh, I am so pissed.
"Uh, well, there's not much to say..she was at New Yorks' Best - you know, that sad school? - and I just met her through a couple of people. Don't know her all that well, though."
"That's going to count now, so get close to her. I want you to-" I started, but G interrupted me.
"I am not going to carry out ANY outrageous plan of yours, Simon!" she said hotly.
I looked at her pleadingly, "come on, Gina. I need to split them up."
"Why? She seems nice..innocent, anyhow. She's a bit of a sad girl's girl, but you know, if Adam likes her, you shouldn't.."
"GINA!! YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE MY BLOODY FRIEND!" I yelled.
"Don't shout, your mum'll hear. Look, Suze, I'm sorry, but that's just so mean. To split him up with a girl he's just gotten with."
"I - don't - care," I said very slowly and deliberately.
"What if he finds out, Suze? He'll be furious. Just drop it..please. For me. I've covered for you so many times, you owe me."
I narrowed my eyes at her.
"I don't like you very much right about now," I said.
"So you'll drop it?" she said hopefully.
I shrugged, "not necessarily..for now, only. I'll get Cee Cee to help if you won't."
"Su-ze!"
"Stop whinging, it doesn't suit you," I grinned at her, as Jesse materialized behind me. He put a hand on my arm.
"Susannah. He's waiting for you in his office."
I smiled sweetly up at Jesse, "Great," I said, but my voice came out squeaky.
Oh, great. Not again. I thought I'd overcome this stupid THING.
"Ok..I'll be waiting for you in Father Dominic's office," Jesse said softly.
"No!" I said immediately, then cringed, "I mean..ok.."
"I'll come with you and Gina if you like, Susannah," he said, looking amused. G made lovey-dovey noises in the background. I am so going to kill her.
