I took a bite of my steak and grinned.  Kam shook his head, “Wow, nice steak teeth.”  I licked my lips, “You’re taunting me.”

            I chuckled, “How?”

            “I want to lick those…” he began to say before my cell phone rang off Best Friend’s Brother.  I laughed when he heard it, “Isn’t Shade your best friend?”

            “Yeah, truly, Ghost always did get a nerve,” I joked.

            He chuckled, he nodded, “Whatever you say.”

            “Anyway, Luna beats Shade by a landslide right now,” I mumbled, annoyed at Shade.

            “What did he do?”

            I grabbed onto my phone, “He called me Evangeline.”

            “Ooh,” his eyes widened and he took bite, “Shade’s in trouble!”

            I laughed.  I grabbed onto my phone and flipped it open.  I raised an eyebrow at the unfamiliar number.

            “Where r u?” it said.

            I smirked, “Who’s this?

            I looked at Kam, “And I kissed him.”

            “Who?”

            “Shade,” his expression hardened, “And he said her name.”

            “Want me to tackle him again?” he asked, grinning.

            I rolled my eyes, “Sure.”

            “Yeah-ah-ah-ah, he’s my best friend’s brother!” I grabbed onto my cell and flipped it open.

            “Luna.

            “How’d u get my #?

            I rolled my eyes, “It was Luna.”

            “Ah,” he said, “Please tell me she doesn’t have a brother.”

            “If he’s related to Luna, then he’s insane most likely,” I said.

            “Don’t judge…” he blinked, his expression serious, “Wait, Luna’s family… no, he’s probably insane if he is related to her.”

            “Thank you!” I said.

            I looked at my cell again and groaned, “I have my ways. So, where r u?

            “Bad morning.  I’m with Kam, eatin’ breakfast!” I smiled.

            It ranged only a second later before I could get a word in, “Which is better? The food or Kam?” I wondered if this was Luna.

            “What?

            I looked at Kam, “Yep, she’s pretty weird.”

            I glanced at the text when it came in, “Which one tastes better? ;)

            “Nasty!” I snapped.
