Ashley remembered the screaming arguments between her mother and father when she was a little girl.
They had terrified her. Her parents had always fought about the same thing, but try as she might, Ashley could not remember what it was.
She had blocked it from her mind. Her father went on, as though there had been no interruption.
“Where were we? Oh, yes. Going out with Shane Miller is a mistake. A big mistake.”
And his words brought back another terrible memory. She could hear her father's voice saying,
“Going out with Jim Cleary is a mistake. A big mistake...” Ashley had just turned eighteen and was living in Bedford, Pennsylvania,
where she was born. Jim Cleary was the most popular boy in Bedford Area High School.
He was on the football team, was handsome and amusing and had a killer smile.
It seemed to Ashley that every girl in school wanted to sleep with him. And most of them probably have, she had thought, wryly.
When Jim Cleary started asking Ashley out, she was determined not to go to bed with him.
She was sure he was interested in her only for sex, but as time went on, she changed her mind.
She liked being with him, and he seemed to genuinely enjoy her company.
