Excerpt:
The
warm sun beats down on my face. I open my eyes, fighting the stickiness that
falling asleep while wearing mascara brings. I run my tongue along my teeth,
the gross feeling of furry and—
Oh God.
Last night.
Michael.
I inch my leg behind me, hoping to feel his
warmth. Maybe we can make this work, somehow. Michael seems to think we can.
One inch: warm bed sheets.
Two inches: the bed cools.
Three inches: nothing.
I flip over. His side of the bed is empty,
the quilt pulled up, and the sheets tucked in, as if he had never even been
there in the first place.
On his pillow lies a note, man-scrawl
scratched across its surface in blue hotel-room pen.
I’ll
keep your secrets.
I
just won’t be one.
Ouch.

Character interview (Stacey):
All right, all the people have been
asking … how come you didn’t make a move on Michael sooner, if you’ve loved him
for all these years?
I
didn’t make a move on him sooner primarily because he had a girlfriend, and I’m
not that mean! And before that, apparently he never tried to make a move on me
because I always had a boyfriend or didn’t act particularly interested.
Cut
me some slack here, people! I didn’t want to take a chance because I thought he
mighta been the one guy really worth fighting for.
And
that would mean potentially getting hurt.
I’m not ready for that.
Let’s talk
underage drinking. This book opens after you’ve done a whole lot of that …
Excuse me, I was twenty-four hours away from
being of legal drinking age! Cut me some slack, please!
I have to admit though, I did drink a lot, and I
have been trying to drink less. The thing is, I get so mad. I went to a
relatively good school in a relatively quiet town, and I knew maybe one or two
people who didn’t do those things, but if you read about doing them in a book,
everyone’s all in an uproar. I just wanted to show you what my life was like.
And I know I am not alone in it.
What do you
look for in a guy?
Good arms, mostly.
What?
Oh, I mean, aside from that, I guess having a
sense of humour is important. And I think I’m one of the few people out there
who actually just wants someone head-over-heels nice. I’ve been with too many
‘bad boys’, and honestly? They’re not all they’re cracked up to be.
My perfect guy would also have a good sense of
humour, be kind and intelligent – but not too intelligent! Not so smart they
make me feel stupid.
And have I mentioned the arms thing yet? Because
seriously. Good arms!
What’s the
biggest thing you learnt during those eleven weeks of your life?
That it’s important to trust in yourself. You
can deal with whatever the world throws at you: I promise.
