ss the flu is making another round。 Austin and Conner were out today;
too。 Maybe we should do
this another time;〃 Mike suggested。
Before I could agree; Jacob spoke。
〃I'm still up for it。 But if you'd rather to stay behind; Mike—〃
〃No; I'm ing;〃 Mike interrupted。 〃I was just thinking of Angela and Ben。
Let's go。〃 He started toward
his Suburban。
〃Hey; do you mind if Jacob drives?〃 I asked。 〃I told him he could—he just
finished his car。 He built it
from scratch; all by himself;〃 I bragged; proud as a PTA mom with a student on
the principal's list。
〃Fine;〃 Mike snapped。
〃All right; then;〃 Jacob said; as if that settled everything。 He seemed more
fortable than anyone else。
Mike climbed in the backseat of the Rabbit with a disgusted expression。
Jacob was his normal sunny self; chattering away until I'd all but forgotten
Mike sulking silently in the
back。
And then Mike changed his strategy。 He leaned forward; resting his chin on the
shoulder of my seat; his
cheek almost touched mine。 I shifted away; turning my back toward the window。
〃Doesn't the radio work in this thing?〃 Mike asked with a hint of petulance;
interrupting Jacob
mid…sentence。
〃Yes;〃 Jacob answered。 〃But Bella doesn't like music。〃
I stared at Jacob; surprised。 I'd never told him that。
〃Bella?〃 Mike asked; annoyed。
〃He's right;〃 I mumbled; still looking at Jacob's serene profile。
〃How can you not like music?〃 Mike demanded。
I shrugged。 〃I don't know。 It just irritates me。〃
〃Hmph。〃 Mike leaned away。
When we got to the theater; Jacob handed me a ten…dollar bill。
〃What's this?〃 I objected。
