Chapter 15

“It was a great performance. You guys sounded great,” Kelly says happily.

“I have a huge crush on Jed,” Donnie blurts out.

“Well, duh.” Kelly rolls her eyes.

“You knew?” Donnie groans.

“I’ve heard you talk about guys you were crushing on before. I recognize the signs. It’s pretty clear to me you like him.” Kelly shrugs.

“Do you think it’s obvious to everyone?” Donnie asks, worrying his bottom lip.

“No. You’re not like ridiculously obvious about it. I can tell because I’ve known you for years. They don’t know you as well as I do. And I knew you’d go back on your word when you said it,” Kelly replies. Donnie sighs. “You don’t plan to tell him, then?” Kelly asks.

“Are you crazy? I’m not telling someone I work with that I have a crush on them.” Donnie shakes his head and takes another big bite of his slice of pizza.

“This can’t be the first time you’ve had a crush on someone you work with,” Kelly says.
