He bobs his head at me and presents his hand for my ID.
Crap.
There’s no way mine is as convincing as Isla Marshall from Ontario.
I hold mine out. Our index fingers briefly touch as Drew takes it and brings it close to his face so he can get a good look at it.
His brow twitches.
Busted.
“And you, Ms. Marie...” He looks at me, amused. “Fujimoto.”
So busted.
I nod, my face on fire. “Konnichi wa,” I greet.
Drew bites his lip to contain the grin just begging to come out. “Welcome to Delta Xi,” he says as he gives the ID back.
“Thank you,” I say, stunned and grateful.
He motions us inside with his warm eyes; eyes that send a message through the air as clear as day.
We’ll chat later.
Again, Jenna yanks on my arm to wake me up. We take one step forward, ready and willing to start this wild night of college rebellion, and my?—
“Heidi?”
My luck runs out.
I didn’t notice the other guy checking IDs on the opposite side of the porch. He glares at me with wide-open eyes as he bounds toward us in the doorway.
“Seth?” I say. “What are you doing here?”
“I was about to ask you the same question,” he says, looking pissed. “What are you doing here?”
“I’m going to a party. Why are you checking IDs?” My jaw drops. “Do you live here?”
“You can’t be here,” he says, ignoring my question.
I cringe beneath the stares of people watching the scene play out around us.
“Hey, hey.” Drew sidles closer. “What the problem, Seth?”
Seth grabs my hand to look at it. “She’s not stamped. Why isn’t she stamped?”
Drew shrugs. “She had ID,” he answers.
“She had ID,” Seth repeats as he glares hard at Jenna. “Gee. I wonder where she got it from.”
Jenna kisses her teeth. “Nice to see you again, too, Sethy.”
Seth exhales hard through his nose as he grabs the stamp and red ink off the stand. “Hands, now,” he says to me and Jenna.
I reluctantly present mine as the snickering laughter becomes far too obvious. Seth stamps Jenna’s hand once and she yanks it back before taking an annoyed stride away from him into the house foyer. He grabs my wrist and stamps the back of my hand, then quickly grabs my other hand to do the same thing.
Then, he continues stamping up my arm, drawing a quick line of stamps all the way past my elbow.
