Chapter 61 - I guess you'll just have to find out tonight

*****

Tina offers to drive me to class, and this time I accept.

"Does anybody else know about you?" She asks as she turns the first corner.

"You're the only human I've told," I say, hoping she won't pick up on the distinction.

"Really? Not even Stephanie?" She asked, her eyes lightly up.

I shake my head.

"Wow. Thank you. So. . ." she trails off, and I wonder what she's going to say next.

"You're going to hang out with Stephanie tonight, right? I heard you on the phone last night." She asked.

I feel both foolish and guilty, but I had made plans with the brunette to celebrate the start of the holiday break.

"Umm, yeah. . ." I reply sheepishly.

Tina laughs and pats my leg, though the laugh sounds slightly forced.

"Relax. I don't have a claim on you and I don't own you. Maybe one day. . . But for right now, I'm just glad I have you as I do. You've trusted me with a secret no one else knows, and you've been there for me when I've really needed you."
