Excerpt
Leis shoved the bedroom door open with a crash and laughed when Baden spun in his chair. He stared at her with wide eyes as Leis waved two brown envelopes over her head.
"We're in! Center college accepted us both!" He pushed back from his computer and flashed a huge grin. She threw herself onto his bed and rolled to her back holding the envelopes in the air.
One for Baden Allen Dietrich and one for Leisel Rene Gottschalk."
Baden sat on the edge of the mattress and snatched them from her hands. "Of course they accepted us." He fell back to lay beside her. His weight dipped the bed and made her shoulders tip toward him. "That's the easy part."
Leis poked him in the ribs. "For you maybe. Your four point oh gets you in anywhere." She snagged one back and tore it open.
He scanned the letter. "Not always. Besides, your ACT was higher than mine."
"Whatever." She leaned across him and his amused brown eyes fixed on hers. "You know what this means, right?"
He tucked a strand of long red hair behind her ear. "What?"
His hand lingered against her cheek and she wished it would spark something inside her but it didn't. No matter how many times she stared down at his boyishly handsome face in admiration, her body stubbornly refused to respond. Gold flecks grew and glittered in his eyes as his fingers traced her cheek. The question in them was obvious, but nothing had changed. She wasn't affected by him at all.
