“Okay,” Jenna says with a shrug as she gazes up at him. “I had a good night.”

He smiles. “Yeah. Me, too.”

“Call me later?” she instructs.

I sip my coffee, hiding a smile behind my mug.

“I will,” he says as he bends down and gives her another kiss. He steps back and waves to the room. “Bye.”

“Bye,” Jenna and I say.

We stay quiet until he sneaks out the front door.

“I thought Bobby was canceled again,” I say, amused.

“Oh, he still is,” Jenna says as she retrieves her mug. “I’m making him work for it. I would have told you that if you didn’t sneak off.”

“I didn’t sneak off.” My lips twitch. “I was walked home… by a boy.”

Jenna raises a curious brow. “What boy?”

I sit down at the table. “I’m going to tell you something and you have to promise to keep it a secret.”

Her feet plop to the floor. “You have my attention, Ms. Newbury,” she says.

“Okay.” I take a breath. “You remember Drew?”

She pauses. “Drew…?”

“We played beer pong with him last night,” I remind her. She squints. “The guy who checked our IDs? The model from class?”

“Oh, right!” she says, remembering now. “Resting Prick Face, sure.”

I smile. “His name is Drew… and I knew that before last night.”

Her eyes twinkle for gossip. “Did you?”

“Yes, I did.”

“And how did you know that?”

“Because he told me on campus the other day while he was jump-starting my car.”

Her jaw slowly opens. “You were acquainted with this young man?”

“Yes.”

“When did you get acquainted?”

I chuckle. Only Jenna can make a word like that sound dirty. “After class the other night.” I take a sip of coffee, purposefully making her wait. “I couldn’t get my car started, I was about to call you to come back for me, but then he stopped to help.”

“Well, that was awfully sweet of him.”

“It really was.”

“And you offered to blow him in return, right?”

I snort. “No.”
