Cady paced up and down whilst talking to her mother on the phone, who was clearly stressed about the fact that her 16 year old daughter was out late to meet an older boy whom she'd never met before.

Cady looked up at the boy, she admired how tall he was, at least 6 foot, she thought. His hair was dyed a deep yet bright red and his lips were so pink she thought he could be wearing lip gloss.
