Nantucket Red (Nantucket Blue)
“I just had to hope that Zack and Parker were taking the elevator. He wasn’t going to have another chance to offer me a high five, not with Parker looking on. I knew they went to the same boarding school, but I never imagined they were together. I was in mid-driveway, almost clear of the bus-size Suburban, when I felt a hand on my shoulder. Jules.
“Cricket, don’t go. It’s our graduation night.”
“What’s up with Zack and your friends? First me, now Parker?” She laughed, but I wasn’t joking. “Why is he with her?”
“She goes to Hanover, too,” she said.
“She does? But Parker is so mean. She’s the meanest girl I’ve ever met.”
“I don’t know about that.” Jules held up her hands like the scales of justice. “It’s not that she’s mean. You don’t really know her. You, like, can’t be objective. She can be great when she wants to be, and she’s been through a lot.”
