Later on! Mia and Kate
There were a lot of ways to answer Mia's question. It should've been easier than it was. Saying 'he tried to kiss me' wasn't going to be good enough. She'd agreed to be his date. She'd dressed up for him. She'd had dinner with him, and even if they weren't together, hadn't really paid much attention to the guy she'd met in a club a month or so ago across the way. She'd tried to buffer any real awkward by inviting her best friend, but that didn't work out so well, did it?
"He tried to kiss me," she settled with it, considering she couldn't think of anything else to say. "I panicked, okay?" It was one helluva panic reaction.
