“Well that can be our second date then.”
I smiled. “Sounds good.” I grabbed my books and stood up. “Soph, can I get a ride home?” I always came to school with my dad now.
“Sure.” She didn’t look up from her phone. “Give me like twenty minutes though. I have that Pavel thing.”
“Your date, right.”
“Just wait for it.”
I wasn’t sure why she was acting like it was going to be a surprise. She was just going to make out with Pavel in front of Mr. Halifax, right? At least, I hoped that was right.
But she had an evil glint in her eyes. Which meant it was probably something way bigger. Maybe she’d get expelled and the kissing booth would be postponed.

“Seriously, Soph, just tell me what you’re about to do.” Yes, I didn’t want to take part in Operation Kissing Booth. But I didn’t really want her to get expelled. There were other ways to get out of kissing a bunch of football players.
“I have to take advantage of the situation I was handed,” Sophie said.
“What situation?”
“Mr. Halifax being out of his room.”
I just stared at her. Was I supposed to understand what was happening here? “I’m so confused.”
“Just be outside his room in 19 minutes and you’llsee everything.”
I didn’t like the way she’d emphasized those last two words. But I didn’t have time to argue with her, because she hurried off in the opposite direction of our lockers.
I shook my head. I guess I had 19 minutes to figure out another solution to getting out of the kissing booth. And I already had an idea in my head. I hurried to RJ’s locker.
“Hey,” I said.
“Hey, baby doll.”
“Stop it.”
“Stop what?”
I rolled my eyes. It was probably a bad idea to complain about the nickname when I was here for a favor. “Did you have any luck tracking that phone number?”
“Nah. It was a burner like we thought.”
“Crap.” I sighed. I’d figured that. “Do you think you could help me with something else?”
“Anything for you.”
I was glad I knew that my kiss thief was a senior, or I’d still be very concerned it was RJ right now. “Do you have access to the latest Hunter Tech cameras? The ones that are barely visible?”
“The V22s?”
“Um...yes?” I didn’t realize they were already on version 22.
He laughed. “You really should be more up to date with our latest innovations, baby doll.”
“I’m not running the company.”
