I already mentioned the legendary hotness of the Latham sisters. Well, Shiloh was no different. She was a year older than me, and I knew of her—I mean I’d watched her and her sisters from a distance—but I’d never really spent any time with her on account of the Lathams—all except Sam—had been homeschooled. She was dressed in a tie-dyed tank top and jean shorts, and she had new LCD MotionNails® (YAY!)—they can be cheesy, but they sure looked good on Shiloh: sunflowers and stars dancing along the tips of her fingers.

Sam was stoked to have her home, and stood her in front of us and gave us her life story. Her full name was Shiloh Marie Latham and she was a freshman biology major at the University of Nevada, Reno. Also—and against her parents’ explicit wishes—she’d recently started having FUN®. According to Sam, he and Shiloh were the black sheep of the family—Sam for obvious reasons, and Shiloh because she was the first of eight children not to attend BYU.

“Word on the street is, she even drinks!” Sam said. “I’m just so very proud of her.”

“And I almost failed Intro to Chemistry,” said Shiloh.

“Well, I came out at a family reunion. Top that.”

His sister gave a faint smile like, I could, believe me, but you don’t want me to.

And yet despite their boasts, when you got down to it, Sam and Shiloh were pretty much wholesome to the core. You could just tell. The fact could not be concealed. Something to do with their sturdy Mormon heritage, I guess. All those years of selective breeding. Like Labrador retrievers.

“I’m trying to convince her to come back here for school,” said Sam. “Shiloh had a little bit of a run-in with—”

“It was completely unfair!” she interrupted. “I didn’t even have a sip! I was the designated driver!”

“Apparently campus security disagreed, and now she’s on academic suspension.”

“Academic probation.”

He gave her a hug. “Sweetheart, either way I’m just so proud of you. I think it’s a sign. Come back home and live with me!”

“I don’t know….” she said. “I’m still thinking about it….I moved to get away from the hicks.”

“Slander!” said Sam. “Libel! Heresy! Isn’t that right, Evelyn? Is not that right there the very textbook definition of heresy?”

“No,” she said.

“And yet how can Shiloh stand here, before this town’s finest citizens, and compare them to hicks?”

“Well, I didn’t mean any of you, obviously,” she said, and her eyes flickered over mine.

It was time for dinner. We sat out back and ate hamburgers, and let me tell you, that girl was having FUN®. I mean really having FUN®. Username: shiloh_lilly. Unlike me, she wasn’t in FAIL—in fact, she was working on her Seventh Star. I watched her with envy. She wasn’t rude about it or anything, but you could tell—I could anyway—that while she smiled and nodded and answered questions, she was doing ten other FUN® things at once.

I kept stealing secret glances at her—she really knew how to rock a tie-dye. She
