I let out a laugh. “I would’ve, too. Don’t worry about it. So, two double bacon avocado burgers?”

“Austin, seriously, let me get you—”

“Not a chance.” I smirk. “Any fries or drinks?”

“Pepsi,” Lily replies first.

Glancing at Jade, she nods with a small smile. “Great. I’ll be back in a few.”

I hurry out of the studio, stopping back at the front desk. “Shawn, I need to use your car.”

“For what?”

“I have to run to Charley’s. Jade and her friend are hungry. I told them I’d get them food.”

“Dude, no. You don’t ask a girl out without taking her along,” he replies, laughing.

“It’s not funny. I want to make sure she can trust me.”

“I told her already you had nothing to do with it. It was that douchebag boyfriend she has.”

“Still, man! Let me use your car.”

“On one condition.” He takes his keys, holding them up for me. I reach for them, but he pulls them back. “I want a mushroom swiss cheeseburger and a large chocolate shake.”

“Fine!”

He laughs, handing me the keys, and I run through the door, the remaining cameramen outside still looking for a glimpse of Jade.

Getting to the burger restaurant, I head inside and quickly order the food, and by the time I get back to the building, Jade and Lily are still in the mixing room, chatting.

“You just said he’s cute!” Lily exclaims.

“Burgers are here,” I say, carrying the bags over to the table they’re sitting at. Both of them snap their heads over toward me, then their eyes dart back and forth. “You guys are still hungry, right?”

They exchange quick glances once again, a slight pink spreading over Jade’s face. “Uh, yeah. Starving.”
