“How’d that happen?”
She shrugged. “I don’t know. He just ran into me in the hall a few times and we talked and got to know each other better. He can be really funny.”
“Yeah. I saw you laughing with him a lot. What do you think of him?”
“He’s nice. And as I said, he’s got a good sense of humor. Why do you ask?”
“Just curious.”
She stopped walking and cocked her head, her lips forming a semi-smile. “Jimmy, are you jealous?”
“No. It’s just that …. Well, yeah. I guess I am a little jealous. I mean, I thought you and I were going steady. Just because I didn’t give you a ring to wear doesn’t mean we’re not.”
They started walking again. “I only talked to the guy.”
“Do you like him?”
“Kinda. He’s fun to be with. That’s all.”
