Chapter 24 Perfect Pair 5

• Amanda watched and waited with everything but patience. The boys were taking their time in cleaning the pool and she could not wait for much longer or she'd simply burst with anxiety. She wondered what they were thinking of as they worked. Was Jake still thinking about the strangely dirty pool? Or was Rake thinking that she was still spying on them? She wanted so much to give them something new to think about.
• When they had finally finished working on the pool and had sat down to rest, Amanda knew it was time. She quickly rushed off to her room to get prepared.
• "Natalie wants you to come to her party, you know," Rake suddenly said, startling his brother. Natalie was the ex long time girlfriend of Jake with whom he was no longer on talking terms.
