After the dance ended Jacob Coote took Josie home and they made a spark in their relationship.

Challenges faced by the Character(s)/information revealed about character(s)


When Jacob and Josie were walking to Jacob's bike, they met John and Poison Ivy on the way and Josie was scared that John took it the wrong way and thought that Jacob was her boyfriend.

Important Quotations


"I look over to her with little patience. 'I feel like the Virgin Mary with this neckline.' (pg 51)
"I didn't want John thinking that I had been picked up at the dance by just anyone and i could almost hear his mind ticking." (pg 57)

Personal Response


I think in this chapter the characters are really confused between the relationships.
