Craig, Spinner, Marco, and Jimmy had band practice after school that day. They were going to stay overnight at Craig's. But Joey didn't leave the house with them.
"After that whole car from the lot incident, I don't think so," Joey replied.
"I doubt we'll have tickets considering he's not going to be in town any time soon," Spinner said.
"Why does he have to be here?" Joey asked.
"Joey, be nice," Caitlin said.
Joey grinned. "I am," he replied.
Spinner looked confused but then shook off the remark. "Paige actually wants to go to JT's party," he said. "Are you guys?"
Marco and Jimmy nodded. Craig shrugged. "I don't know," he replied.
"Dude, I saw you spacing out in class today," Jimmy replied. "You need to clear your head."
"That won't take too long," Marco said.
"I was talking about Craig. Not Spinner."
"Oh."
Spinner rolled his eyes. "I think this would be good for you," he said.
"I don't know," Craig replied. "I don't want to go without Sammy and more or less Manny might be there and you guys remember what happened last year."
They nodded. "We'll keep her far away from you," Marco said.
"Yeah," Spinner replied. "We'll keep a close eye on the both of you."
"More on you, though," Jimmy said.
"Thanks," Craig replied.
He and his friends walked upstairs to his bedroom where they were going to listen to Jimmy's new mixed CD.
