Chapter Eight

Al in al I would say our first non-school related activity went very wel. Kim even beat me at pinbal after we ate. I have completely stopped bringing her anything edible in the mornings due to my new plan of not kiling her. Today is Wednesday and Kim is walking towards me a little quicker than usual this morning.

Although it is entirely possible that I am imagining this—it is every easy to imagine that I am becoming an important part of Kim’s day.

“Morning! Kim.”

“Hey, Marshal.” Okay no smile or hug, but I’m a patient guy and eventualy she is going to notice how awesome I am.

“I have to leave right after rehearsal today. In case you were planning on practicing. I have to work.” Her face fals. I hate that I’ve disappointed her, but I can only ask Mandy to cover so many of my shifts. “Oh. Wel maybe we could run lines over lunch?”

“Kim, we don’t eat lunch together.”

“Of course. I’m sorry I should have known—you probably sit with Dan and Steve at lunch.”

“Dave and Steve.” I correct her. Gotta love that tunnel vision. “And I do, but I meant that you and I don’t have the same lunch period. I would have noticed.”

“Oh. Wel we do. You eat fourth period, right? I usualy just take my sandwich into the library so I can study.”

“You eat in the library?” Some parts of Kim’s life are sad to me.

“What’s wrong with that? I get a lot of work done.”

“What about taking some time to relax with your friends?”

“Oh. Wel, I don’t realy have those kinds of friends.”

I guess I must have my own tunnel vision when it comes to Kim Penney. It is only just now occurring to me that she is always alone. “Sure Kim, you come and sit with us today at lunch.”

“With your friends too? That doesn’t sound conducive to getting any work done.”

“A little distraction is good for the soul, Kim. Please, eat lunch with us.”
