Bad Acting

We finished eating and were about to go home when Matt said, “Hey there’s a party on the beach. Ya’ll wanna come?”
I bit my lip and started to shake my head, I hated dancing. But then Chase put his hand over my mouth. “Sure, sounds good.”
I raised my eyebrows trying to look a little annoyed but as soon as I looked at him, I completely melted.
“Fine. Lead the way Matt.” I mumbled.
We all stood up and walked out, and I focused on not looking stupid.
I was about to get in Claire’s car when Chase stopped me. “You can ride with me.”
I looked around, but the only car I saw was Matt’s truck. I frowned, obviously a little confused. Then I saw the motorcycle.
I shook my head, “Ohhhh no. Nooooo way!”
He grinned devilishly, “I’ve got a helmet for you and all that, and I’m not going to do anything stupid.”
I tried to act like I didn’t want to be on the back of that motorcycle, clinging to him for dear life, but I have a feeling I wasn’t very convincing. ”...ok. What mom doesn’t know won’t hurt her…I hope.”
