I am barely on time to pick up Lucas from his driving class this evening. He slips in the car and I ask how class was? He said it was just fine. It is only about a 13 minute drive back home. Lucas seems a little tired, I ask if he is ok. He is.
We engage in some small talk about our favorite music. I remember how much he liked the movie Bohemian Rhapsody - something we have in common. As the conversation continues… Lucas: “Did you know Ryan has a girlfriend?” Me: “ WHAAAAAAAT? How do you know this?” He has now peaked up and is totally into giving me the gossip. Lucas: “Well he was walking in front of me at school and he was walking really close to a girl.” Me: “So wait, when was this? Lucas: “Umm, like just before Christmas. I figured you knew.” He thought I was in the “know,” I clearly was not! That just lead to more questions: Do you know her name? What color is her hair? Are they still dating? He was totally into getting the gossip for me. Lucas said he would ask Ryan’s friends for me. As much as I am dying to know - I told him he better not ask anyone anything….Ryan would be so made at us for digging. BUT...he should still keep his eyes and ears open and fill me in as he finds out more information! We did have a little talk about how important it is to fill me in quicker, I mean a two month wait time is not acceptable! LOL

The tension of wanting to know more and knowing you can't probe too much. Exciting times.
