Tell Me That I Won't Feel A Thing, chapter 2

You may not know who Kevin is. Kevin's a good friend of mine. We hang out a lot. Even though we never dated or anything, we still were really close. We went to the Green day concert with Mike, Nadine and Sammy. It was fun (if you call getting jumped on and crushed by Mike Dirnt, Billie Joe and Tre fun). We were just friends... Then.

Nadine ran into the bathroom. Tess was in one of the stalls, crying.
"Tess, I'm sorry... I just wanted to... I dunno... Make you feel better."
"So (sob)... You think..."
"No, I don't. You need time. I'm sorry."
Tess came out, her eyes wet and tear stained. She wiped the eyeliner away in the mirror. Her hair was frizzed up and her ribbon was falling out.
"Do we still have band practice with Kevin's today?"
"Yeah... Why?"
"I need to talk to him."


Later at band practice, Tess walked away with Kevin. When she came back, Kevin was smiling. He told is bassist, Jason, and Jason looked up.
"Dude you're serious?!?!?"
Kevin nodded.
"Congrats!"
Nadine put down her drumsticks.
"What's up? Why are you... What's..."
Tess whispered someting to her.
"Tonight?!?!?"
