Now that all my previously completed books have been updated, I’m ready to focus on Double Time. I know, I’ve changed the title so many times. But hey, I can. It’s not going to change anymore, though. It’s actually published on the new cover of Double Threat My Bleep, so I there’s no turning back. 😉 Here’s a longer excerpt than I usually post. Now, this could change along the way. Who knows?
Happy Reading!
From Double Time (part three of the Double Threat series):
“Okay, enough about the Beantown boys. Tell us what Ben said,” Keesh says. I can’t help but laugh at the way we know all the New Kid lingo, and we weren’t even born when they hit it big. Our moms have completely brainwashed us.
Shaking my head, I snap myself from my thoughts. “Oh, yeah. Okay, the boys went bowling together.”
“Bowling? That’s the big secret. I thought you meant they were hooking up with girls,” Keesh responds.
“I’m not done,” I tell her. “They went bowling and there were a group of girls there too. Five to be exact. And guess who was one of them.”
“Amy?” Steph says.
“You mention her name in my house again and I’ll take out your eye with that nail file.” I glare at her, and she smiles. “No. Thelma. And guess which two of the boys she took care of, if you know what I mean?”
“Oh my gosh. Seriously, Meg. Please tell me she didn’t hook up with Josh or Trav. You know she’s been with so many guys, and maybe some chicks too, that you can do the whole six degrees of separation with her.” Keesh shakes her head. She really bothered by this.
“What’s that?” Steph asks, looking up with a raised brow.
“It’s this idea that everyone is connected within six people from each other. But with Thelma, it’s like three. Name a person,” Keesh says.
“Amy,” Steph replies.
“Are you kidding me?” I yelp.
Steph grimaces. “Sorry.”
“Okay, so I don’t think Thelma has ever hooked up with Amy. But Amy knows Jacob, and he did her on multiple occasions. That wasn’t even three. Only two degrees of separation.”
“That’s gross,” I tell them. “But no, she didn’t get with Trav or Josh. She tag teamed the brothers. Ben said she started with Eric, moved on to Ron, and then finished off with Eric again. Sick huh?”
“Well, they are siblings. I bet their momma always told them to share,” Keesh jokes.
We all bust up laughing, amused by our jokes.
“Wait, that’s not all. Travis and Josh made out with some girls at the park,” I explain.
“At the park?” Steph says.
“Yeah, I guess they all wanted to go somewhere where they could get nasty, so they left the bowling alley and went to a park.”
“What about Ben and Dominic?” Keesh asks.
“Ben said he fooled around with one of the girls in his car, while the others went off to find dark secluded spots. And Dom left with another chick in his van. He didn’t go to the park with them.”
Steph bows her head, and starts filing her nails again. But this time, for real. And she’s getting a little rough.
“Hey, stop. You’re going to draw blood,” I tell her.
“I feel like such an ass. Here I am feeling all guilty about going with Sonny to the dance and Dominic is actually dating. And I know what he can do in that van. I haven’t gone out with anybody. Shit, I haven’t kissed anyone but him.”
“Then don’t feel bad about Sonny. Go and have a good time. They can obviously shut off their feelings, so we should too.”
“There’s only one problem,” Keesh says.
“What’s that?” I ask, although I’m not sure I want to know.
“We haven’t come close to getting dates to the dance. None of the guys I’ve talked to have even mentioned it.” She has a point.
“Well, we’re gonna have to step up our game. Tomorrow, it’s on.”
Uh, oh. Meg is back and ready to make a statement. I can’t wait for you to read about this dance. Seems like the good stuff always happens at these events. Haha. It’s on, baby!
