As they pulled up to the restaurant, Ivy could already pick out Lydia's thoughts going a million miles a minute.
'Adrian looks soooo good in his costume, it's not fair! I probably look like an idiot in comparison. I need Ivy to get here fast and run interference for me. She's always so calm; I wouldn't dare double with a guy I like this much with anyone else.'
So that was why she insisted on making her antisocial friend go way, way out of her comfort zone? Wow.
Ivy and Carson got out of the car and she waved her friend down. Sure enough, Adrian Marquez stood next to her in a Catman t-shirt and black jeans with a utility belt and mask. She wasn't sure what Lydia was so worked up about. Their costumes seemed to be on the same level.
"Hey, Clumsy Girl! So you're Lydia's friend. I did wonder…I've never met another Ivy," Adrian said with a smile.
'Clumsy Girl?' Carson thought in confusion.
