Plunking down on the carriage seat with bat cage on his lap, Eddy peered around the edge. "A whole term without girls? Are you kidding? Couldn't have planned it better myself!" Eddy eyed Sho suspiciously. Maybe Sho was one of those boys who'd cross over - maybe he liked girls. After all, he'd asked the 'kissing' question. Would Eddy never again meet a man unfettered by a sensitivity for the opposite gender?!
One by one, in the last year Eddy had watched his pals fall prey to the female's wiley ways. But as Eddy's hero, Willie Walker, so aptly observed 'dames'll get you nowhere faster than a broken broom in a hurricane.' Sure, Willie had a soft spot for the pretty broad, but he knew his priorities - and they didn't include 'getting saddled with a chick and her idea of romance.' And Eddy could (and often would) quote Willie on that.
"What about you, Cale? You gonna be okay?" After all, the guy sported flowers. Girls probably liked him.
