Jenna nervously tapped her fingers on the table while waiting for their wine to arrive. She was still stupidly worrying about things she couldn't control.
"Are you alright?" Bryce asked in a concerned tone.
She did her best to smile at him. "I'm fine. Sorry I'm a bit distracted tonight. I got some news from home today that has me a bit jumpy but I'll do my best to be a good date."
"…can you tell me about it?"
No, she could not. It wasn't actually news from home…it was going over travel plans and whatnot with Killian regarding the trial. Which would technically be held in her hometown so she was only half lying.
Jenna hated all of these half-truths. She was a straightforward person, dang it! Pussyfooting around had never been her style.
"Ask me that again a week from now," she said bravely. At that point it would all be over one way or another.
