“What’s wrong with you? You look like you ate mud for breakfast.” Kerri leans against the locker next to mine.

I turn and lay my cheek against the cold metal, pouting. “Austin stayed for dinner last night and met my family.”

“So?”

“So, everybody in my family is cooler and more interesting than me,” I say a little louder and grumpier than I meant to. Thankfully, nobody is paying attention.

“Oh.” Kerri’s face falls.

“Yeah. He couldn’t take his eyes off Bianca, he couldn’t stop asking my dad questions about his latest movie, and he spent the rest of the evening playing basketball with Evan.” I roll my eyes and flop back against my locker, sighing.

“At least he took his shirt off for that.” I smile at the memory, and Kerri smirks and wiggles her eyebrows.

“He liked the idea about the party, though, and he promised to take care of everything.”

“Well, that was nice.” Kerri looks as confused as I feel. When he wasn’t cozying up to my family, he was being really sweet to me, and I just can’t figure him out. Is he a jerk who’s only pretending to like me so I’ll help him, or is he really a nice guy who might actually care about me, even if just a little?

She waves it off like it doesn’t matter, and she’s right, it shouldn’t. I never expected him to like me, so it shouldn’t bother me if he doesn’t, but for some reason I can’t quit thinking about the times when he acted like he did.

“Austin’s just a gateway boyfriend, anyway. Going out with him makes you look more dateable to other guys. That’s what you should focus on. Who do you really want?”

I picture his friends and the other guys in school I’ve ogled from afar but never had the guts to talk to. I can think of a dozen guys I’ve had a crush on over the years, and Austin isn’t one of them. He was too far out of my league to even fantasize about, plus he’s been going out with Chloe forever. So why is it he’s the only guy I can think about now?

“Don’t look now, but here he comes. Think you’ll get another good morning kiss?” Kerri’s eyes flash like disco balls, and the first thing I do is whip my head around to look.

“My ears are itching, are you talking about me?” Austin leans over me with that movie star smile. I should know, I’ve seen enough of them, and Austin definitely has what it takes. He’s the one that ought to have a celebrity family, not me.

Kerri pokes her head around my shoulder. “Mia says you’re planning her birthday party. It better be awesome, cuz my parties are hard to beat.”

Austin quirks his lip and raises one eyebrow. “Mia said it’s usually just you two, eating pizza and watching DVDs.”

Kerri sticks her hands on her hips and rolls her head. “Yeah, well, I have every Marvel movie ever made, so, like I said.
