she's enjoying herself." Jay leaned in toward me.
"I hope she's not the only one," I whispered, trying to be seductive and rubbing my side against his, but tripped over my own feet and almost face planted right into a rack of bowling balls.
"Whoa." Jay put his arm out in front of me, stopping my body before I fell to the floor.
Scotty and Johnny looked up from the ball rack, their eyes widening.
"Didn't know you were that excited about bowling." Scotty laughed, rolling a bright pink ball between his palms.
"Oh yeah, all Sicilian girls are really into knocking things down with huge balls." I rolled my eyes and stepped down to the lane.
"That's what she said," Sofie piped up from the other end of the rack. The comment made Scotty and Johnny crack up as they high-fived her.
I turned toward Jay. "Is it bad that I think my best friend is on the same brain waves as Scotty and Johnny?"
Jay glanced at the three of them over my shoulder while I sat down next to him and shrugged my coat off and onto the chair. "Well, that depends."
He slid his arm around my waist pulling me closer, the barely-there stubble of his chin brushing against my face. "Do you want our friends to be distracted by each other so we can have more alone time or would you rather have them by our side all night?"
"Touché." I leaned in to kiss him when I felt a tap on my shoulder. I groaned, somehow Jay and I were always getting interrupted. I turned around to see Sofie staring down at me as she fidgeted from one side of her body to the other.
"Yes, Sofie?" I looked up and gave her a look that said, this better be important or I I’m going to kill you later .
"Um, I was just hoping you’d go to the snack bar with me and get a drink before we started playing." She wiggled her eyebrows motioning her head in the direction of the other two guys.
"Either your friend has some kind of a disorder, or she's trying to give you a hint at something." Jay laughed and slid his arm out from around me before squeezing my shoulder.
I rolled my eyes and stood up next to Sofie, staring right at her to answer Jay. "I think it's a little bit of both."
"Oh, come on." She let out a huge breath of air through her braces as she linked her arms with mine and dragged me toward the snack bar.
"Are we really getting drinks?" I leaned in, almost whispering as we exited the lane.
Sofie shrugged, "Maybe, but I just had to get out of there to ask you the game plan, so the guys wouldn't hear."
"Game plan?"
She rolled her eyes as her boots clanked on the linoleum floor. I had only seen Sofie wear heels about twice in our life. Once at our confirmation and the other time at our freshman homecoming. It showed since she wobbled on her tippy toes toward the concession stand. "Are we actually staying here all night? Aren't you worried about someone seeing you?"
I shrugged, looking around the bowling alley. I couldn't recognize anyone through the fog machine and our lane was all the way at the other end from where most of Rock and Bowl was going on. "I don't think anyone can really see us…"
Sofie pushed a stray curl out of her face as we approached the snack bar. "I mean I don't care if I get recognized with some of the hottest guys on the planet, but I could just imagine what your mom would say if she saw us on TV or something."
“It's fine. No one even knows we're here."
"Oh em gee!"
And with that high-pitched squeal I knew I spoke too soon. My body tensed as I slowly turned around to see Christy standing there with Abbey, a girl who went to college with us. I liked Abbey well enough; her biggest flaw was that she was always in Christy's shadow.
Shouldn't Christy have been at school or something? Though, she did come home for the weekend a lot. She said it was to see the ranch, but I always wondered if there was another motive.
"I knew it was too good to be true. There was no way a hottie like Jay Morningstar would stay with dough girl." She smirked, her lips that were
