Excerpt from the book:
. . . "Hey, Brian. Wait up," shouted Blazer. He was running to catch up so they could walk up the front steps of the school together. "Did you hear about Amy Sterling?" Blazer was excited and out of breath, but he had a good little bit of gossip and wanted to share it quickly. "She put out for Dusty last night! Do you believe it? She did him in the bathroom. Wow!"
"Amy Sterling? Straight-lace Amy? You got to be... No. I... no. Somebody’s pulling your leg."
"Yah. Really. That’s what Dusty told Ralph, and Ralph told me," he added.
"Dusty? Really? ...no. You can’t trust him to tell you the truth. Why is he doing this? She’s a nice girl. He shouldn’t go around saying stuff like that."
Amy Sterling was a quiet girl with a delicate and sensitive disposition. Amy Sterling was one of Cathy’s best friends. Brian told Cathy what Blazer had said, and Cathy told Amy. Of course, Amy denied everything. She said that Dusty had been bothering her for weeks, but she didn’t want anything to do with him. He got angry at her. That’s why he started spreading rumors. Nobody was going to treat him like that and get away with it, he had told her. He was going to get even. She was mortified. ‘Where there’s smoke, there’s fire’ was a hack-kneed phrase that was seeing a new revival. The damage had been done. People, especially young people, generally prefer to believe the worst. It’s so much more exciting. Amy didn’t want to go to school any more.
A few people even started wondering about Cathy and Brian. ‘Birds of a feather,’ you know.
