I decided to stay outside for a while and go for a good skate. I’d been so busy with Angela this week that I’d barely had any time to myself. Plus, after wearing that hoodie I was already plenty sweaty. What better time to get in a workout?

I’d just finished lacing up my first skate when a shadow fell over me. “You’re late, Westley. The game was Monday.” I glanced up and Dave smiled down at me as friendly as ever. “And Wednesday,” he added.

I shrugged and continued to tie my other skate. I don’t know what he wanted me to say. He knew exactly why I’d avoided the park this week.

He was obviously here to try and smooth things over between us. I just hoped he’d do the guy thing and not actually, you know, say it. I understand girls are supposed to be all about expressing their feelings, but I’m totally down with avoidance.

When my skates were on I let Dave help me to my feet and managed a very cool, “What’s up?”

“Were you going somewhere in particular? You owe me a game of one-on-one.”

He’d said the magic words. Any tension left between the two of us was gone. I grinned. “I take it you’re in the mood for a good butt-whooping?”

I dragged my nets out to the street and proceeded to put my money where my mouth was. An hour later I was sufficiently humiliating Dave when Seth finally got home. “Goal!” I shouted as I sailed the ball through Dave’s net. Again. “And I do believe that’s game, sucker!”

“Dude, I was distracted by that car.”

“And what’s your excuse for the other nine goals?” I asked as we dragged our nets to the curb in order to let the car pass. I didn’t realize the car was Seth’s until it slid to a stop in front of his house.

Dave skated up beside me and gave a low whistle. “A BMW?” he asked curiously.

I sighed, and with a sad shake of my head answered, “I know. It’s embarrassing.”

I suddenly realized that this was the perfect opportunity to talk to Seth. I’d wanted to all week, and now I was hoping I might be able to piece together some kind of explanation about what he’d been doing today.

Right now was my chance. It was daylight and we were in public, and Dave was there to keep things from getting out of hand. Because, yeah, I guess there was still a slight possibility that Seth was a psycho killer—just a really sweet one. Plus, Angela was inside. There’s no way she could get out here to stop me in time.

With that, I became determined. Seth had briefly met my eyes when he’d pulled up, but after seeing Dave at my side he was doing his best to pretend we weren’t there. He didn’t even look my way when he got out of his car, so I had to yell, “Hey, Seth!” to get his attention. And boy did it.

Seth practically stumbled over his feet, he stopped so short.
