The waiter came over to us almost immediately and took our drink orders. "Do you have Sam Adams?" I asked him."Sure. Which one would you like?" Just the lager will be fine." Good. Ladies, what can I get you?"It was then that I realized that I should have deferred to them to go first instead of doing what I did..

What the Hell was shedoing in his room now? "Where are you?" In you," Whitney's voice stated. A sharp crack emanated from Tucker's back andhe grunted with the sharp pain.
