ethan snorts, leaning against the counter. despite the sheer absurdity of the words, he knows zoe ; he knows she’d do whatever she could to help him out, no matter the situation. and, well, if this situation just so happens to be him being afraid of the manager of the store kicking his ass because he wants to take a night off to go to some party ... then so be it. ethan doesn’t usually do these things either — but mia’s going to be there, and zoe knows how much ethan wants to impress her, how much he wants to go out with her ( she teases him enough for it, teases him about the stupid way he stares at the girl whenever she comes into the store ).
“ is that a promise? ” he asks, reaching for his coke and taking a long swig from the can. zoe is a force to be reckoned with, though ; if she says she’s got him covered, ethan KNOWS that she means it. “ because you know he’s gonna be pissed. i said i’d work that shift last week. ” a pause, before ethan’s adding, “ he just doesn’t understand what’s really important, i think. ”
