Moles, too. hove been known ro shoke in feor or the idea of asking someone our. For instance, Kevin McGinry hos hod his eye on Wendy Plocker for oges. bur it seems that every rime he gets up rhe courage ro osk her our, she either walks owoy or begins talking ro someone else. Once he does manage ro get her alone, his voice crocks,- and he resigns himself to rhe focr that he's blown ir. Bur wait, she's smiling. She soys yes! His eyes open wide in disbelief, ond his chin drops about o foot allowing o high-pirched squeok ro escope: Really?!'' Bur in on insronr his cool is regained, ond his thoughts turn ro rhe evening that lies ahead. Number one on Kevin's mind is his method of transportation (after oil, his cor is his baby). Deciding ir's too lore ro bong our rhe denrs, Kevin nevertheless does his best ro spruce ir up with his trusty Turtle Wax ond o sprirz of Old Spice. (He also drives around rhe block numerous rimes ro run rhe gos level down ro o quarter of o rank — chuckle, chuckle.) Also on Kevin's mind righr now is rhe cost of their impending rendezvous.

the untold story For most girls, o dore is nor jusr something ro do on on otherwise drob Soturdoy night. No sir! A dore (especiolly o dote with HIM) constitutes the event of the season — to be dreamed about beforehand explicitly, to be splattered oil over notes passed around dull classrooms and ro be talked about (in hushed rones) in the dork recesses of the girls' bathroom. When Kevin first opprooched her about going our. Wendy gave him the old Why's-o-big-mon-on-campus-like-you-inrerested-in-lirrle-or-me? smile, when in reolity she hod been planning on this unbn for some rime. During the post few months, nor o day hod gone by in which she hadn't spotted him in the hall and immediately dropped eoch and every item in her hands. But now he was here ond he was finally popping the big question. Visions of Prom corsoges ond Kevin's doss ring danced in her head os she feverishly set her mind ro deciding what to wear on their first dote.

Surprisingly enough, these questions ore nor only Wendy's ... bur Kevin’s too. Dotirvg 21
