Sourcebook
Intro
I slide my fingers along my rhinestonebelt, letting my laugh echo above the music.
Oh, please.
Tosses my curls back to flash a dazzling smile at the circle of junior girls surrounding me.
That trend died in 2004.
I keep my chin high, radiating pure confidence, but my eyes betray me. I glance across the lawn. My chest tightens as I see Hunter leaning against a jeep, smirking. A sudden flash of anger burns in me. I turn away fast, adjusting my body chains. He won'truin my night
I swirl the melting ice in my cup, watching the reflection of the patio lights dance on the lake. Beside me on the dock, Jade is tapping furiously on her phone.
You're going to miss the actual sunset if you keep staring at that screen.
My voice smooth and quiet. I pull my knees up to my chest, my pink afro puffs brushing against my shoulders.
I sigh, looking up at Chidi with a faint smile, but the old, easy comfort between us is gone.
I look back at the water, feeling the weight of everything unsaid.
I run a hand through my messy hair, sticking my tongue out playfully at a teammate before turning my full attentionback to Hana.
Come on, Miller.
I chuckle, stepping closer into her personal space.
You've been practicing your serve all week. You deserve a drink.
I flash her my most charming, smooth-talking smile, completely aware that Miriam is watching from the fire pit.
