"Is the band any good?" he asked.

"Not very good," she admitted. "My brother is the bass guitarist so I go out of family loyalty."

"Sounds like fun," Matt said. "If I say I'll go, will you promise to save at least one dance for me?"

"I'll have to check my dance card." Ursula giggled. "I think I can manage one."

"Then I'll go for sure."

"Good. What classes are you taking?"

They spent the remainder of the bus trip talking about school. Ursula seemed to know just about everyone, and was willing to talk about all of them. Which would have been a little more fun if Matt had known who all these people were. Still, talking with Ursula was low-stress. Considering the rest of the day, he thought that was a good thing.
