CARA SNORTED inelegantly. “Well, weren’t you two dumber than a bag of diapers?”

Kenny looked at Will and rolled his eyes. “Most oblique come-on ever.”

Will blushed and grimaced at all of them. God, they didn’t have to act like it was all his fault that he hadn’t read Kenny’s signals right!

“Hey—in my defense, I’d never had to come on to a guy before!” he protested. “The girls just sort of—”

“Followed you home,” Kenny supplied, his voice more arid than the outer reaches of space. “I know.”

Will stuck out his tongue. “Well, yeah—I was sort of thick. But hey, I was not the idiot who—”

“Oh no,” Kenny said, all playfulness dropping from his shoulders. The look he sent Will was now profoundly apologetic. “This part—God, Will! It’s so embarrassing!” he complained, and Will took a little bit of pity on him and leaned over to kiss his cheek.

“Only a little,” he said soothingly. “And you have to admit, it makes me look like sort of a hero.”

Kenny’s smile held no cynicism at all. “You are my hero,” he said sincerely.

Will preened. “Well, you know. That’s how we’ll tell the story.”

“Wait,” Nina said like she’d just done some math. “Was that the graphic novel we bought when Anne took us to the convention?”

Cara did a double take. “That’s what you’re worried about now?”

“Here.” Kenny reached into his pocket before Will could even think about it. “I’ll bet you Will forgot to give you one of these, didn’t he?”

The two women glared at Will reprovingly.

“They’re family!” he protested, blushing, and Cara shook her head while she took the business card with the little oversexed fuzzy alien on it.

“We’re fans, honey. Give us the skinny!”

“Check the website for dates and times—we’re scheduled to do three more conventions in the next two months.” Kenny looked at Will and waved his hand. “Well, go on, hero! I want to hear you tell it like you were meant to shine!”

Aw, geez. Who could resist with an invitation like that?
