Chapter Twenty-Four

My eyes sweep over the auditorium, every part of me giddy. This isn’t my first concert, but it’s always exciting. Seeing Ally up there on the stage? It’s awesome. The place is fully packed too.

“You got the goods?” I ask Charlie.

She lifts the bag from between her feet. “Got it right here.”

“Ally will be so excited when she sees it!” I gush. “Especially because she gets so nervous before each performance.”

“Do you think she has a solo?” Kara asks.

Charlie shakes her head. “Ally doesn’t do solos. Which is a shame because she has a great voice.”

“She does?” Kara asks with pinched brows. “You know, I don’t think I’ve ever heard her sing.”

I think about it for a second. “Me, either. I’ve always heard her sing in the choir, but never by herself.”

“I heard her once,” Charlie explains. “I stopped by her house to pick up an assignment someone from the choir left with her and I heard her singing in her room. She sounded incredible. But when she found out I heard her, she totally freaked.”

“It sucks she’s embarrassed even in front of us,” Kara says with a frown. “I thought we’re her best friends.”

“Shy girl problems,” Charlie says with a shrug. “She tries to get over it, but it’s just the way she is. Hopefully she’ll feel comfortable one day to sing in front of us.”

“Yeah.” Kara smiles. “I’m sure she will.”

They talk about other things as the auditorium continues to fill up, but my mind wanders. Mom had her first day of work at the Knights today and she told me it went really well. Everyone was kind to her and Mr. and Mrs. Knight loved her cooking. Just a few more days and she’ll be officially hired.

I still can’t believe this was all Easton’s doing.

“Why are you so quiet?” Kara asks as she taps my arm.

I shake my head and glance at her. “What?”

“What are you thinking about?”

I play with my hair. “Easton came by my house last night.”

Both she and Charlie gape at me. “And you’re just telling us this now?” Kara demands. “What did he want?”

“Well, he didn’t come to apologize,” I mutter. “Ugh, I’m so confused. Like, a part of me wants to hate him because of what he said to me on the first day of school. But the other part can’t help but notice how…sweet he is.”

Charlie and Kara stare at each other with mouths so wide you can fit a football stadium inside. Kara grabs my arm. “Details, Dani. Now.”

I tell them how he stopped by my house last night to tell Mom and me the good news. They exchange surprised glances with me and then each other. “Was he for real?” Charlie asks. “I thought the Knights only hire professional gourmet chefs to cook for them.”

“Yeah, me too!” I say. “But he insisted that it didn’t matter. He claimed he loves my mom’s cooking because she cooks with love, which was missing from Jean-Paul’s food.”

“Jean-Paul?” Kara asks.

“I assume it’s the previous chef.
