"Who are you?" Nico asked me.
"Uh… I think I already introduced myself to you last night. Did your drunken ass forget?" I said as the girls and I got out of the room.
I didn't mean to be so cranky and Nico was being such an accommodating friend as he had paid for most of what we were having right now. But, now wasn't really a good time to joke around with me.
I was grumpy and I had never felt so ashamed in my entire life except maybe when I had mumbled and pronounced a word so wrong trying to impress Will and a few friends back in downtown Shalem when we were twelve.
And how can I not forget? Most of all, being dragged from my home into town in the middle of the night to be jeered by the townspeople and the father and fiancée of my then lover publicly shaming me for being together with William Bernards.
