No one else could know we were going on a date, though. I needed to protect Edwart in case anything happened. Still, I had never gone out with such a hot guy before, so I sent a vague e-mail to the whole grade saying, “Edwart Mullen and Belle Goose Are Totally Together. ↗

These movies are like my kids. I just love them to death. Some of them go to Harvard and some of them can barely graduate high school. ↗
