The idea perked her up considerably. Her eyes were on Mr. Jeremy, but only because he kept moving around. He was flattered to suddenly have her undivided attention. His lesson became more inspired.

Jody's mind, however, was on other things. Namely, how to place a conference call. That evening would do. Her curfew was at seven, and the others' was eleven. The call would have to happen after that. She couldn't keep them, especially Susie and Ricky, from good, healthy, real live sex.

And the call would be for her own benefit. And for Manny's. She hoped and prayed he wouldn't find another girlfriend during the interim of her confinement.

So she had to set up enough sexual interactions, if only by phone, to keep her boyfriend, and herself, happy.

She thought she'd bill the call to her parents' phone, and then the dormitory operator wouldn't need all the details of the call. She didn't want anyone listening in on this one.

She met Susie between classes and broached her idea. Susie was game.

Susie was game for anything sexual. They scheduled the phone call for eleven fifteen that night. Susie would notify Ricky. Jody would notify Manny.

Manny grooved on the idea. He said he would be ready, willing and able, at eleven fifteen.

At precisely eleven ten, Jody called the operator. She gave Jody's, Susie's and Ricky's phone numbers and then hung up and waited for the operator to call her back.

At eleven fifteen exactly the phone rang. She picked it up eagerly.

"Hi!" yelled Susie from her room on the fourth floor.

"Hey, Sugar!" called Ricky from his room in the boys' dorm.

"Shut up, you guys, I can't get a word in edgewise," screamed Manny over the receiver. "I'm hot and ready."
