Chapter 16: SIAN

For the first time I actually felt that tingle that I guess most teenage girls get when asked that question. I told her about Jace and the Mandy situation. "Oh she's so done."

"What do you mean, why do you say that?"

"Because if she was in there she wouldn't feel threatened by you, unless the guy is a total dog who cheats on her all the time."

"I didn't hear anything like that, only that they were the hottest item last year and now, ice-burg. I did see the two of them together and she seemed way more interested than he did."

"See, they're on the outs, now the thing to find out is, is it temporary, a lover's spat or is it permanent?"

"How do I do that?"

"Did you learn nothing from me? Geez, here's what you do. You don't approach him at all, like never."

"Whenever you see him make sure you're doing something that will get his attention but don't be too obvious. You know, like laugh at something someone else said and throw your head back like it's really funny, that sort of thing.
