So I excused myself from him and went back to the table politely and he started dancing with some other girls.At the table Rachel asked if I have ever...been to bed with a black man. I told her that I have had planned making love to only my husband, not that it was her business. She told me I should try it and Danny would surly assist me. Finally I got angry and told her to butt out and drop it. A few hours later, I looked up and Danny was there. He said he wanted to date just me some day. Rachel. `Yeah,' continued Kyle, `We went to a restaurant in Mason City where Trevor ? that was my date ? lived. I was more uptight about being seen by anyone we knew than they were. Tiffany suggested that if we were seen, then she would answer in that innocent voice she does that we had promised to take her for a gang-bang, and that she was looking forward to it as she liked band music.'They laughed at this, and Brian asked, with what he realized was a touch of jealousy in his tone, `So what happened. You hit him didn't you."I didn't know if she was mad or happy about it. "Yes, for that night you were my girl and I didn't like him touching you."She smiled and thank me for being her knight in shining armor. We walked together and sat at the same table and had lunch. We only had a week of school left and it was all tests and meetings.At graduation my parents and sister were there and I could tell they were proud of me. I said hi to Kayla's parents and Mr. Davis reminded me to come see him. "What direction was the ship going in, and where did it come from."Louis looked worried. "That's what I worry about. Our briefing said we'd be outside the Sa'arm incursion cone, but it appears they have branched out. If the original briefing was correct, the Sa'arm incursion zone should run from ten degrees spinward to about one hundred forty degrees spinward. This ship came in from seventy degrees upspin, nearly a full ninety degrees off the known line of their advance. We aren't quite.
