Dawson paused once more. "What does she look like?"<br />

Jack rolled his eyes. "Come on, Dawson. She's a girl. She's blonde, tall, wears glasses<br />

. . . you're totally desperate. What do you care?" He turned to Pete. "No offense." Pete<br />

rolled his eyes.<br />

Dawson nodded with relief. "I don't really care. Just making sure it's not anyone I<br />

know. I have this way of winding up in ridiculous situations, and I don't want to get into<br />

another one." Dawson rubbed his forehead. "Yeah, sure, I'll make sure to dance with<br />

your sister tomorrow." He stood up. "I'm going to get a brownie. I'll be right back."<br />

As Dawson walked off, Jack slowly turned to Pete. "Did you say your sister is bringing a<br />

friend to the party tomorrow night? A friend from school?"<br />

"Yeah." Pete laughed. "Now she would not be the girl for a guy who's recovering.<br />

<strong>Dawson's</strong> actually going to be very happy I fixed him up with Rebecca if he meets her.<br />

Why do you ask?"<br />

Jack took a long drink from the bottle of beer in front of him, then chuckled.<br />

"Nevermind. It's, like, statistically impossible."<br />

It was getting dark as the picnic finally broke up. As the last bags of trash were thrown<br />

out and the last boxes of leftover food packed into SUVs, Joey found a glass beer bottle<br />

under one of the benches. "Hey, where's the recycling, anyway?" she called out.<br />

"Behind the little building where the bathrooms are," Jack shouted back. "The big green<br />

bins."<br />

She took the bottle and headed up the path. She ran into Chris, who was walking the<br />

other way. "Hey," she said cheerfully and a little suspiciously, "where did you wind up?"<br />

"Uh . . . I was just sort of wandering around." At her dubious expression, he tried again.<br />

"I was enjoying the great outdoors." He pulled his phone out and showed it to her.<br />

"Look."<br />

Her mouth fell open. "Your phone is off. My goodness, Chris, what's happened to<br />

you?"<br />

"Nothin'." He grinned and walked <strong>by</strong> her.<br />

Joey paused a minute to wonder just what had him in such a merry mood all of a<br />

sudden, then continued on her way. She stepped around the back of the little stone<br />

building and opened the bin that was marked for glass. Tossing the bottle in, she<br />

noticed that one of the other bins was overflowing with plastic bottles. She opened it,<br />

and gingerly tried to crush them a little. Just as she forced the lid closed, she felt hands<br />

slide around her waist from behind.
