Kevin blinked and gave her his best fake smile. Really he didn’t know why he hadn’t gone into acting. He’d been good at it in drama class.
They’d decided to go to dinner after Gabby’s shift at the car wash. She’d even come by to pick him up, and her mom was watching her kids. So, great, now he was dating chicks. Okay, so he wasn’t reallyon a date with Gabby.
“Of course I do,” Kevin lied. He knew where he wanted to be on Saturday night, and no offense to Gabby, but it wasn’t with her. “I’m sorry. I’m sort of preoccupied.”
She nodded. “Boyfriend trouble?”
“I don’t have a boyfriend.” Man, he sounded really pathetic. No wonder Gabby looked unhappy to be having dinner with him. He picked up his menu and forced cheer into his tone. “What are you going to have?”
“I’m torn between the enchiladas and the chile relleno.”
