Things to Know About Riley Stone:
• In preschool, Riley actually got in trouble for kissing too many boys in the schoolyard. Her teacher threatened to use rubber cement on her lips. Of course, Riley does not count any of these as real kisses because they were (a) embarrassing and (b) in preschool.
• After Riley kissed boys in the schoolyard, she would push them. Hard. But she never actually got in trouble for pushing boys because the boys she kissed never wanted to admit they’d been hurt by a girl. Riley, of course, used their sexism to her advantage.
• Riley quit modeling at age fifteen when she won runner-up at the local modeling show she’d won every year since she was four. That year, a new judge, a Miss Brown, rated Riley low in every category.
• Kolbie won first place.
• After Riley quit modeling, she joined the Keep First Street Alive historical site fund-raiser, which was scheduled for the same date every year. The year Riley joined, the fund-raiser rented the modeling contest venue, and the annual modeling event was subsequently canceled. By that time, however, Kolbie was already signed to an agency in New York and did not see the cancellation as a slight.
