" F uck, I'm glad the sun is at least out," I mutter to Kat as she stands beside me, watching as I pace nervously.

"Well, you're the one that chose to wear that off-the-shoulder sweater." She rolls her eyes at me.

"Big gestures, Kat! Big gestures . If I didn't wear this, he wouldn't be able to see the damn tattoo!"

"Okay, whatever," she says, brushing me off.

"Are you sure this is going to work?" I ask her, needing as much reassurance as possible.

"Aiyana, my brother is understandably upset, but he's obsessed with you. Of course it's going to work. Now stop asking me that. I'm just trying to focus on mentally rehearsing my parts. You know I can't really dance," she whines.

"You'll be fine. You're not the one proposing," I remind her.

"Yeah, because that would be gross," she jokes, trying to clear some of the tension.
