The Friday 56: #2

*****On Fridays, Freda's Voice hosts a weekly meme. You grab a book, turn to page 56 or 56%, find a sentence/sentences, post it, and link up!*****

Today's Friday 56 comes from The Crown by Kiera Cass, the last book in the Selection series. Enjoy and Happy Friday!!!!



"Kile?"
"Yeah."
"Do you remember out first kiss?"
"How could I forget? It was printed on the front of every newspaper."
"No, not that one. Our first first kiss."
After a beat of confusion, he sucked in a huge breath. "Oh. My. Gosh."
I just lay there laughing.
When I was four and Kile was six, he and I played together a lot. I still didn't remember what made him start hating palace life or when our mutual dislike for each other kicked in, but back then Kile was like another Ahren. One day the three of us were playing hide-and-seek, and Kile found me. Instead of tagging me out, though, he bent down and kissed me full on the mouth. I stood up and pushed him to the ground and swore to him that if he ever tried it again, I'd have him hanged.
"What four-year-old knows how to threaten someone's life?' he teased.
