”I hadn’t either, but, to be blunt, Sharon’s life had been in danger. At the moment, I’d had no compunction whatever about pulling the trigger... It was their choice to attack us, and the results were on them. “They didn’t leave us a choice.” I moved up close behind her, and put my arm around her waist.“He was younger than me, and now he’s dead because I shot him.” Her voice quavered, and she held my arm to her belly.“I know, and I’m sorry that you had to do that.”Sharon rolled over to face me,. "What, you don't seem to want me to put my underwear on, but you said we can't ever do that again. Seems to me like you'd rather us talk about this, am I wrong?" I then noticed that her nipples were quite hard and poking out through her thin shirt."If you're not going to say anything then I will say it for you. Take off you're pants and come here."

I love your earrings.” Addie had said just the right thing (not that this was a test). Rachel was the adolescent Imelda Marcos of earrings. She was wearing silver star-shaped dangles. “Thanks.” “Do you have a lot of earrings?” asked Addie using her powers of deduction. “I collect them.” “I’d love to see your collection someday.” Rachel looked at me suspiciously. I just shrugged. <,>,<,>,<,>,<,>, It was a wine bar in the middle of the amusement park, and Addie and I were. Her daughter looked awesome."What is this going to cost me?" Mrs. Henderson said. "It looks like amillion dollars." Well, it won't cost that much," Ariel joked. "How about $40? It wouldnormally be more like $60, for a full hour, but I was taking my time andsuch." That is a bargain," Mrs. Henderson said, pulling out two twenties. "Doyou like it sweetheart?" I love it," Carly gushed. "Wait till the girls at school see it."All three women walked out of the shop together, and turned around tolook.
