Why haven't you e-mailed me yet? What are you doing? Well, no I guess you don't have to tell me exactly what you're doing…no, wait, yes, you do! I need to know what it feels like and what you did, and what he did, and whether you laughed, and where you put your hands, and all that stuff. Sheesh. I can't believe you haven't e-mailed me. Even with the time difference, it's still after noon. I mean, even if you are gettin' it on with V, you have to take a break sometime! Don't you?

Well, while you're shacked up with your love bunny (or in V's case, love weasel), let me tell you what happened this afternoon. Holly and I went shopping on High Street to try to find some sort of dye that I could use on the undie-drawer handle (undies are currently residing in my pants drawer. I guess only the top drawer is haunted, because so far no undies have appeared without my permission), and we ran into Devon and Fang. No Aidan—he said he had to stay home this weekend and make up all the work he missed at school while he was out with a cold (and there's something going on about that—I'll tell you in a mo), but still, it was nice to meet Devon and Fang. We went to a café on Second Street and drank coffee and looked really sophisticated and stuff with D&F—one on either side of each of us, how cool is that?—and then Devon told us he's having a party at his house in a fortnight (that's two weeks—why can't these people just SAY things properly?).

“You both should come. It's going to be a stunner.”

I looked at Holly. She looked kind of worried (her best look), but I knew that I had to be at this stunner party or I'd die. “I'd love to go, thanks, Devon. Holly would love to go, too.”

“Maybe. It depends on my mum.”

Devon smiled at her, then transferred his smile to me, and I have to tell you, Dru, I started to reevaluate my deep, boundless love for Aidan. I don't mean that I'd leave Aidan for Devon, but he is awfully cute, and he is eighteen, and he can be drop-dead sexy when he wants to be.

“Aidan's going to be there, isn't he?”

“Of course.” Devon laughed. “It wouldn't be a party without our best mixer.”

I tried to look sophisticated and nonchalant and all that, but I know now what a mixer is (it's a guy who “mixes it up” with girls). Oh, yeah, that's just what I want to hear about the man who is probably my once and future husband.

“I'm surprised he's not here by now,” Devon said, looking at his watch. “We always meet here on Sundays.”

Note to self: Be in the surrounding area every Sunday afternoon.

“He's probably still fagged out from going to London,” Fang said.
