Chapter 1

"Mom. Look at Christine. She's got a boy sitting at the table with her. And he's gorgeous." exclaimed Hailey. "This doesn't make any sense unless she's tutoring him or something." Melissa Leonard was exhausted as she made her way back to the food court in the mall. She had been clothes shopping with two of her three daughters for the last four hours. Hailey, her youngest daughter and a few months shy of 16, was determined to be the best dressed girl in the sophomore class. Melissa had escorted Hailey as she spent the last three hours looking at hundreds of outfits and trying on dozens of them. "How is it that Hailey is such a slave to fashion, while Christine could care less?" wondered Melissa to herself. "I don't think it took us half an hour to select Christine's entire wardrobe for her senior year. Of course, it was much easier since Christine still insists on those bulky, loose pants, baggy jeans, and oversized tops and sweaters. She just doesn't seem to have any interest in fash...

"Christine, I can't believe you just said that. He sat with you for twenty minutes, chatted you up, asked about your school and family, and even asked you on a date. Does that sound like something a guy would do if he had no interest?" demanded Melissa. "You need to get out more, Baby. You're going into your senior year. I know your grades are important and you want to get into pre-med at Stanford, but you need to have fun Sometimes, too. You'll do even better in your studies if you're happy and enjoying life. Mitchell seemed like a really nice young man. He didn't ask you out because of some pity he felt for you. I saw him looking at you before he realized we were headed to your table. Believe me when I say this: he liked what he saw. That much was obvious." "Yeah, Sis. I saw it, too. I was just kidding about getting you different clothes, and him not being interested in you. I'm sorry I said that. I was just jealous that he was sitting with you instead of with me. I don't know how y

Chapter 3
The Eagle section was dead silent, but the Highland side made up for it. High fives, loud cheers, and whistles swept through the stands. Christine realized that she was one of the loudest fans as she yelled and screamed her approval. Her sisters and mother were right next to her, showing their excitement over the turn of events. "My God, Christine. He must have thrown that ball fifty yards. He sure seems serious about winning this game and keeping his date," laughed Maddie. "Hailey, let me have those binoculars so I can get a good look at our hero." Maddie focused in on number twelve as he and his teammates slapped each other on the back. She quickly determined that Mitchell was an extremely popular man now. He was taller than all but a couple of linemen and looked every bit as strong. Then she saw him scanning the Highland cheering section, obviously looking for someone. "Wave ladies," Maddie instructed as she held her free hand high and whipped it around. "Our hero is looking for

"I can't wait for the dance tomorrow night," added Hailey. "I just want to see the faces of everyone when they see my sister with the best-looking guy in the place. He’ll dance with me a few Times. You won't mind, Will you, Christine?" "Please don't get all carried away, Maddie and Hailey. Mitchell was nice to me today. I admit that it made me feel pretty darn good. But he isn't my boyfriend. You saw how those girls looked at him. What are my chances of keeping him interested in more than a week or two? I never had a boyfriend, let alone one like Mitchell. I'm not good at playing games and using sex to keep him isn't even on the table. I'm not going to take a chance on ruining my reputation, or my future over some boy," insisted Christine. "Christine, sex should never be used to control a partner, so I can't argue with that attitude. But it doesn't have to ruin your reputation, or your life, if you're mature and responsible," counseled Melissa. "It can be a wonderful experience that

Chapter 5
Christine was certain that Mitchell would be insulted and leave the house. For her part, she had never been so humiliated. "Dad," cried Hailey. "It's okay, Hailey. Your dad has a good point there. I'll tell you this, sir. I never intended to force Christine to do anything against her wishes. I would never do that, unless it was done to save her from pain or injury. I asked her out and she declined, but her reasons sounded hollow to me, so I decided to press Christine a little. If Christine simply tells me that she truly does not want to go with me tonight, I will leave and never bother her again. However, Sir, it is my belief and hope that Christine is more than willing to accompany me to the dance. Let's ask her when she comes down, shall we?" "Okay, son. You stated your case well. We'll do that, but there are a couple other things that you need to know," continued Christine's father. "You'll never go out with Christine again if you use alcohol, or tobacco. If I hear that you drive

Chapter 6
Christine was surprised both by Mitchell's response to her apology and his declaration that she had a great family. She thought it over and realized that she'd never given much thought to how lucky she was to have the family she had. Maddie had loaned her the red dress and spent hours helping her prepare for her first real date. What more could you ask from a big sister? Christine also realized that she knew almost nothing about Mitchell and really needed to learn more. It then occurred to her that that was the very reason people dated. She had underestimated its value. Mitchell had spent some time with Tim Smith in an effort to know what to expect at the benefit dance. It was important to Mitchell that he make friends and be accepted in his new town. He didn't want to ruin things because he didn't understand customs in the area. He felt as prepared as he could be for what he expected to be a very memorable evening. As Christine and Mitchell entered the VFW hall, a tall thin girl app

Chapter 7
"Ladies and Gentlemen, I'm Sammy Ace and I'll be your host and DJ this evening. As you all know, this is a benefit for Mike Smith. That means we're going to try to raise money, which means that I'll expect everyone here to do their part. To start with, is there anyone here that would refuse to allow me to auction off a dance with them, or their partner? If so, please step over against that wall by the picture window? No one? Great. We'll be getting under way in a couple minutes. Later, you'll be hearing from Mike Smith to thank you for your kindness, so give it until it hurts, Ladies and Gentlemen," pleaded the DJ. Mitchell couldn't help but appreciate how cleverly the disc jockey had placed everyone at the dance in a position to be auctioned off. A lot of people would not have raised their hands if volunteers had been sought, but by asking them to move to an area, they would have had to be proactive in not participating. People too shy to participate would be reluctant to be seen rem

"Careful, Big Boy," chided Christine. "Remember 'the talk' my father gave you. He's watching us right now. You don't want to face his wrath, do you?" "I think I'd risk almost anything for you, Christine, but not your reputation. Can I give you a brief kiss when the song ends?" asked Mitchell. "It would be very quick, and no one would notice." "Yeah, right, you silver tongued devil. If you're willing to face the wrath of my father, go for it, Tough Guy. But don't say I didn't warn you," advised Christine. As the song ended, Mitchell bent over and briefly kissed Christine on the lips and then quickly pulled back from her. To his surprise, the entire building broke into applause and cheers. There were more than a few whistles and cat calls as well. Men slapped him on the back as he led Christine back to her seat. Mitchell was surprised to find both Ashley and Amy in tears. "That was the most beautiful, romantic thing I've ever seen," sobbed Ashley. "It looked like a scene out of Prett

"It really works both ways, guys," observed Mitchell. "They probably think that you look down on them for not being as smart as you are. That discomfort they show could be caused by fearing that they'll say or do something you feel is stupid. It's all a question of communication and insecurities. We all have them, and we need to understand that fact.""What in the world could you be insecure about, Mitchell?" asked Ashley. "You're big, strong, good looking, athletic, apparently pretty smart, and a hell of a dancer. I don't think you have any insecurity at all.""Ashley, just how dumb do you think I am? If I told you my weaknesses, you'd be able to reduce me to a quivering mass of Jell-O. I'm not about to give you that kind of power over me." admitted Mitchell."You're just afraid that I'd force you to let me have my way with you. I've asked some of the guys on the football team about the showers tonight and I hear that you're the guy I should interview," replied Ashley as she once aga

Chapter 10
"Oh, no,” cried Christine. "Could you see if anyone was looking at us?""It wasn't too bad," soothed Mitchell. "It looked like it was just your sisters, parents, Aunt Donna, and a few other people I don't know. All of them were looking at us. Other than that, I think we went unnoticed."The door slowly opened, and Melissa stuck her head out and grimaced. "Christine, Hailey is so sorry. She saw you coming up the drive and was so excited to see you and Mitchell. She thought you were going to walk right in, so she hurried to the door to welcome you. She wasn't trying to be cruel. She's just so excited she couldn't contain herself. Mitchell, will you please come in for a while and meet everyone. It'll be fine. We were all young once."With that, Melissa swung the door open and gestured for Christine and Mitchell to enter. Every person in the room was straining to keep a straight face, except Hailey. She had a look of utter dread. Mitchell grabbed her and pulled her to him."What should I
