Chapter 2
Amy impatiently knocked on the door. The headmaster's son Lucas opened it.
"Hey baby." He kissed Parker. "What are you doing here?"
"Hey baby." Amy teased.
"Hi Amy." Lucas said.
"I hear you have a newbie in the house. "she smiled.
"Do you girls have an underground network or something?" he asked.
"Yes we do." Amy said seriously.
"You want to meet him?" Lucas asked.
"No. We came to see you." She said sarcastically.
"Come in Amy." He moved out of her way.
Parker shook her head.
Lucas threw up his hands. "Don't look at me. She's your friend." Parker
laughed as they followed Amy to the pool house.
Amy quietly snuck into the pool house. She caught a glimpse of Jarod bent
over picking up something. She bit her lips to stifle the giggle. This is
going to be fun Amy thought
Jarod jerked up quickly when he hears a sigh.
"May I help you?" he asked
"You can help yourself to anything you want." She said quietly.
"Excuse me?"
"I'm Amy." She held out her hand for a handshake. "I'm just here to
welcome you to Boyer Academy." She smiled sweetly
Jarod returned the smile then went on to unpacking.
"So...uh...Where are you from?" she asked
"Delaware, Blue Cove. Blue Cove Delaware." Jarod was still stumbling when
he talked to girls. He had never seen so many girls before. Ms. Parker was
the first one. Now it was
as if they came pouring in through a funnel.
"I have a friend from Blue Cove. In fact she's here. Maybe you know her."
She walked out heading toward Parker.
"Hey Parker. This guy is from Blue Cove too," she said.
Parker? Jarod dropped his things and followed her out.
It was as if time had stopped as they both halted mid-stride from either
ends of the room.
Both faces without emotion suddenly came to life as they ran into each
other's arms.
"My god. I missed you." He whispered into her hair.
"I missed you too." Parker smiled looking at him.
"I take it you guys know each other." Amy said.
"Yes. We've known each other since we were kids." Parker said.
"I didn't know you were here." Jarod said happily.
"Daddy didn't tell me that you were coming here." She hugged him again.
"How are you? How is Sydney? She asked.
"I'm fine. And so is he... I still can't believe...
Lucas came up to them and cleared his throat.
