I do it at home with a dial-up modem. Mom would catch<br />

me for sure.<br />

I log on and click until I enter the site I need. Holding<br />

my breath, I move the cursor onto the link for the fees and<br />

schedules. “Please, God,” I whisper, “don’t let it be too<br />

expensive.”<br />

“Expensive?” Walter shoves his glasses up the bridge of<br />

his nose. “What price are you putting on a radioactive holocaust?”<br />

Moving my mouse to the PRINT icon, I left click on it.<br />

Walter is still staring at me as I get up and walk around the<br />

corner to the printer. In a few seconds, it spits out exactly<br />

what I need. Adrenaline gushes through my system. It’s not<br />

going to be easy, but it’s definitely doable.<br />

Grabbing the piece of paper, I dash for the door, hoping<br />

to make it to the cafeteria before the good food is gone.<br />

“Hey, Ruthie!” Walter shouts after me. “Will I see you<br />

on the bus?”<br />

Perry waves at me from across the quad. Instantly, I slow<br />

down. I walk sensuously. Feeling my delicious-secret underpants,<br />

I act fearless even though I feel terrified.<br />

“Hurry up,” Perry yells, rolling his eyes.<br />

Inching into Perry’s personal space, I force myself to<br />

gaze seductively into his eyes. My heart pounds, my eyes<br />

water, but no way am I going to blink.<br />

It’s now or never.<br />
