Tim was oblivious, lost in his own world. Christy was hanging on every word he said.Darren put his cup of punch down on an end table and placed one ha...d on Stephanie's hip and the other on Cassie's, drawing them together with his head between them. He felt them tense up as his lips brushed Stephanie's neck. "Miss me?" he whispered as he continued to nibble up her neck to her ear.Stephanie sighed and turned, wrapping her arms around his neck.
