““Megan glanced at Finn, who was sitting next to Evan, then checked on John. His eyes were trained on the TV. “Um…aren’t you supposed to be grounded?” Megan whispered, crouching at the back of the couch. “Shhh!” Finn said as he leaned forward for a bag of mini-pretzels. “My dad’s so mesmerized he hasn’t noticed me yet.” “Nice.” “So, hey, you wanna meet me out in the shed later?” Finn asked, popping a pretzel into his mouth. “Oh, sure,” Megan replied, flushing slightly. “What’re you two doing in the shed together?” Evan asked, raising his eyebrows. Megan’s flush deepened. “An artist never discusses his work,” Finn replied. “I think it’s a magician never reveals his secrets,” Megan said. “Same thing,” Finn replied. Megan and Evan looked at him like he was crazy. “Okay, it’s really not,” he amended. “So, you’re calling yourself an artist these days?” Evan asked. “Usually you’re just going off about how much you suck.” Finn punched Evan on the arm, hard. Evan punched him back. Megan rolled her eyes. “I’ll see you guys later.””
