Annika was starting to show.

It wasn’t overly obvious, but when the wind caught her school blouse and pressed it against her stomach, there was definitely a bulge.

For the most part, people had stopped gawking at her and Lars by now, though I doubted they’d stop talking about them, and therefore probably me, until the baby was born.

Kayla waggled her fingers at me, her and her posse gliding by our table with Annika bringing up the rear as if none of them really wanted to be seen with her. I was guessing her parents were definitely away, and I hoped they didn’t find out, or I had a feeling they’d be on the first flight home.

“Is she still cheerleading?” Peggy asked.

“Probably,” I said, tearing a chunk out of my apple.

“You would think it’s not really safe for the baby,” she said.

I shrugged. “They can always stick her on the end if they don’t want to get slapped with discrimination.” In fact, I’d bet that was what they were doing unless Annika had left the squad.

Doubtful.

“Freckles, what in the fresh name of fuck?” Dash dropped into the seat next to her, his face scrunched with outrage.

Peggy glanced up from her mac and cheese. “Huh?”

That only made it worse. He looked at me. “Can you believe this chick?”

I rolled my eyes, immune to their sweet and sickening ways by now.

“What’s the problem?” Peggy asked, shoving more cheesy pasta into her mouth.

Dash took the pasta and her fork, eating some while he continued to glare at her.

“Dash, speak for god’s sake.”

“I’m waiting to see if you’ll save this budding romance of ours from barreling toward certain death.”

Peggy’s eyes flared. “What the hell?”

Dash shoved her food back toward her. “It’s our anniversary.”

Peggy groaned. “We had one just last week.”

“Yeah,” Dash said, nodding once. “Our fifth week anniversary.”

I snorted. “Happy six weeks, guys.”

Peggy’s face fell when she saw Dash was legitimately upset, and she reached for him.

He pouted and turned away, which resulted in her throwing her arms around him from behind and whispering something in his ear.

“Really?” he asked.

She said something else.

“Promise?”

Peggy laughed, and said, “Promise.”

That settled it, and he got up to grab some lunch.

Peggy sighed. “It’s like he’s the female in this relationship, I swear.” Yet she was still smiling.

“You guys are gross,” I said as Lars entered the cafeteria and crossed the room.

He sat down beside me and held out his hand. In his palm were three squares of licorice.

I went to take one, and he folded his fingers over them. “You’re forgetting something.”

I scowled but gave him what he wanted, quickly smacking his lips with mine before a teacher could see.

He didn’t release me, though. His hand snuck behind my head, fingers threading into my hair as his mouth traced every edge of mine.

“Who’s gross now?” Peggy muttered, then laughed when I pulled away and glared at her.

I took two squares of licorice for my trouble and set them on my tray to finish my apple. “Where’ve you been?” I asked Lars.
