" Sam said.Melanie put her arm around Carly. "Yeah, we're getting there." That's great." Freddie said.The four of them spoke until dawn starting break...ing and Sam suggested that she and Freddie go across the hall to his old room and go back to sl*ep for a few more hours. They both had sore necks and shoulders from sl*eping in the bean bags."I'll make you a deal Benson, you massage my shoulders and I'll massage yours." Sam said as they made their way into the apartment. "Is your mom at work?". "Do you eat at all before you swim, Damon?" Carynne asked."Not right before, no," I said. "The last thing I want is something heavy in my stomach while I'm trying to swim fast. But I definitely load up the night before." When's your next meet again?" my sister asked from my right—I assumed more for her friends' benefit than because she didn't know."State semi-finals this Saturday, then State Championships next week. That's the big one. It'll decide who gets to go to Nationals." Cool! We should. The dog whimpered and Janey stroked his high head, across the forehead back over the ears. He was a superb dog. He looked up a her with a huge smile, his long tongue curving well out over his lower jaw and back toward his neck. It was all wet and glistening and he panted infectiously."Oh, nice," she barely heard Margaret whisper as Margaret slid softly up her legs and squatted caressing the backs of her thighs softly and smoothly. She smiled down at Margaret and saw her touch herself then touch. Then behave like that girl."She seemed passionate. I suspected something from her own past wascausing her to be so emphatic, but now really was a bad time to dig intoit. She had never mentioned her family and had no family photos aroundthe house. I had a feeling that she was giving me some hard won advice,and I would be stupid not to take it."I will give it some careful thought tonight. School starts tomorrow soI will be on good behavior."Great she said giving me a big smile. I know that you.
