“I know, but you can’t spend your entire life chasing after a ghost.”
“I know that,” I grumble.

“Then prove it. Ask Peyton out on a date.”

“You’re a pretty charming guy. I think you’ll figure it out.”
“Still, not happening. At least not yet.”
“Not yet.” She smiles. “That’s not a no.”
“Can we please talk about something else?”
“Fine.” She crinkles her nose. “But this isn’t over,” she warns.
“Like I didn’t already know that much.” I chuckle, lifting my beer bottle to my lips.
