"SPILL." SKY AND KINGSTON both demanded as soon as I sat down at our lunch table. Ever since I'd told my friends and family about Mars, they've been badgering me nonstop.

"Is he cute?" Sky interrupted immediately.

"Do you like him?" Kingston questioned.

"Did you guys kiss yet?"

"But is he cute?"

"Let Char speak, then maybe she can tell you." Noah interjected quickly and I smiled at him gratefully.

Sky looked disappointed, "That's it?"

"We had literally just met, what else did you want to happen?"
