We have to go." She grabbed hold of my arm, but I resisted and stayed where I was. She immediately snapped back to attention and pushed her wire-rimmed glasses up the bridge of her nose. "Of course? What's that supposed to mean? What's going on?" I narrowed my eyes, unsure if I should be offended or not. Getting interrogated about my personal life wasn't quite what I'd expected. Terwilliger's call had woken me, she'd demanded I meet her here for a "life-or-death" matter. Aside from a bored-looking desk attendant on the far side of the room, the lobby was empty, probably because no sane person would be up at this time of night. I was fully awake now and glanced uneasily around my dorm's lobby, making sure no one was around to witness this crazy exchange. Terwilliger, leaned closer and repeated the question in a stage whisper: "I said, are you a virgin?" An urgent phone call had dragged me out of bed five minutes ago, and I was having a little trouble adjusting. "Huh?" I rubbed my sleepy eyes, just in case this was all some sort of bizarre dream that would disappear. It was, however, the first time I'd been subjected to such a personal line of questioning. THIS WASN'T THE FIRST TIME I'd been pulled out of bed for a crucial mission.
