A Little Rebellion
Sommers, Beverly
It was deja vu all over again

When Neil Blessing walked into Flanagan's bar, sat down with the Rooftop Gang and ordered the ritual Friday-night roast beef platter, Kevin looked pleased. Andy looked uneasy. And Lulu Lenahan looked ready to spit nails.

Neil had that look that reminded Lulu that she wasn't one of the boys and never would be. When they'd been twelve years old, that look had annoyed the heck out of her. Now she knew exactly what that look meant: twenty years after being kicked out of the South Boston gang, Neil was back in Lulu's life. And this time he wasn't taking no for an answer.
