Elizabeth Wakefield has known Todd Wilkins since kindergarten, but she's never noticed how cute he really is, until she sees him dancing with her sister, Jessica. Now Elizabeth can't stop thinking about him - and everywhere she goes, Todd turns up, too. Could he actually like her as much as likes him? Elizabeth wishes she knew more about boys. But when she finally asks her twin for some advice on the subject, she makes a terrible discovery: Jessica has a crush on Todd, too!
How can Elizabeth fall for a boy her sister already likes? There's only one honorable thing to do: forget Todd and never let Jessica know she cares. But that's not going to be such an easy thing to do . . .
Jessica would have known what to say . . .
Todd cleared his throat. "Elizabeth, do you ever go bowling?"
Elizabeth closed her locker door and looked up/ "Bowling? I've gone a few times with my family. Why?"
"Do you like it?"
"It's OK," Elizabeth said. "I'm pretty much of a klutz, though." She laughed, remembering the last time she had gone bowling. "I guess bowling is one of those things where you have to practice before you can be good at it."
"I guess," Todd agreed. Then after another long pause he said, "Well, see you around."
"See you around," sje echoed, and Todd turned and walked away.
Why had Todd stopped to talk to her? Did he know it was her, or did he think at first that she was Jessica? Suddenly, Elizabeth could feel tears stinging the inside of her eyelids. Was bowling the kind of thing Jessica had been talking about when she'd advised Elizabeth to find out what a boy was interested in and read up on it? Did Todd like bowling? If he did, Elizabeth was sure she had completely ruined and chance she had with him. She had even confessed how clumsy she was. How could she have said such a stupid thing? Todd Wilkins would never want to talk to her again!
