Chapter 1


                    Only one person had recognized  him.  That

               was Amanda. She had been the last person Shawn
               wanted help from. Back then, they didn’t like each

               other. They always argued. Shawn thought Amanda

               followed the rules too much. Amanda hated that
               Shawn barely ever got in trouble for being late.

                    Still, she had helped him get his life back.

               her to the dance awkward.
                    “Oh.” Amanda pushed up her glasses. “You

               want to go with me?”
                    “Sure,” Shawn said. “Why not?” He didn’t

               want to seem too anxious.

                    “Um, well . . . Troy Higgins already asked
               me. I told him yes.”

                    Troy Higgins? Shawn couldn’t believe it. Troy
