“C’mon. Stop being a jerk and give me my stuff”Billy held her stuff up even higher. His free hand shot out and grabbed the wrist of her outstret...ched arm.“A jerk? You think I’m a jerk?” He put an over exaggerated pout on his lips. “Now my feelings are hurt.”“I think you should apologize and give him a kiss, little sister” Donna chimed in.“Yeah.
