These were the same guys who when they were fifteen had used Mrs. Daniels’s expensive eyeliner to paint lines under their eyes as camouflage before they went to toilet-paper the neighbor’s house. Within five minutes they had been caught and brought home to face the wrath of her dad and Mr. Daniels. All that camouflage on their faces, yet they’d worn yellow T-shirts and white shorts: Tweedledee and Tweedledum.”

“You alone tonight?”
“Yep,” she replies as Tommy slides the drink toward her.
“It’s my experience that women don’t normally come to nightclubs alone. So, I’m thinking you came back to see me.”
