Chapter 2
Miguel smirked. "Look at those two," he whispered to Kay. The two were walking down the Main Street in their college town of Harmony.
"What am I looking for?" she whispered back. Kay had a pretty good idea of what Miguel was smirking about, but she decided to give him the benefit of the doubt.
"Oh come on. You can't tell me that they don't look just the slightest bit goofy together," he looked at her, a little confused by her lack of reaction.
"I have no clue what you're talking about," Kay ignored his inspection of her expression and continued walking down the street. Benefit of the doubt revoked, she thought to herself. Miguel really was a twit sometimes.
"Oh," he replied, looking as if he'd just resolved something for himself, "you must have missed it then. there was this funny lookin' couple who."
"She was wearing black boots, he had on a black leather jacket with a Boss label on the sleeve?" Kay stopped in the middle of the sidewalk and looked directly at Miguel as she was speaking.
"Uhh.. yeah, that was them," his smirk reappeared. "So you know what I'm talking about."
"No, I don't." Kay began walking briskly again.
"Jeez, Kay, I've never seen you move this fast in my life," Miguel complained. "Anyway, I was talking about how ridiculous they looked together. She was a good three inches taller than him and twice his size. You can't tell me you don't think that looked a little strange, that they just don't fit together as a couple" Miguel couldn't figure out what was wrong with his buddy. She was always making fun of people with him but she seemed to be intentionally ignoring the opportunity to do so now.
Kay once again stopped in the middle of the sidewalk, so abruptly that Miguel nearly walked by her before she grabbed the sleeve of his jacket. She seemed to be struggling to formulate a response. Finally, she blurted out, "Look, there's Eddie Bower, let's see what's new."
Miguel, never able to pass up an opportunity to update his gray sweater collection, accepted the bizarre change of subject with a shrug and followed Kay into the store, the incident forgotten.
