He
looked at me ready to drive off after I got out of the car. “Annie,
really, I’m not so sure about this. My confidence is pretty low
right now. I mean I will go to this party, but don’t go too far
away from me. I don’t want to be alone with her for long. And for
god sakes, keep Jim away from the booze. He will be trashed in an
hour if he is drinking.” Nate was rambling.
I
slammed the door, through my hair back and laughed at him. “You
are such a baby! Really Nate, it won’t be that bad. And if you
need a break we can come up with a code word to get you out of
there.”
He
locked up the car and smirked. “That’s a great idea. Let’s
use pineapple. That way people will think we are crazy when we say
it and only you and I will know what it means.”
“Pineapple,
really? Why not strawberry or applesauce?” I teased him.
“I hate applesauce and I can’t eat strawberries, I love them, but it screws up my stomach.” Nate answered and followed me onto the front porch where there were a few people hanging out.
