^{“Tell me about it. I go to school with a whole bunch of jerks.” Tina crossed her arms and
frowned at the thought of her schoolmates. At the offer, she smiled. “It wouldn’t be fair to ask you to pay for both but there is a muffin that I was eyeing earlier. I’m Tina, by the way.”}

Blaine gave her a sympathetic cringe. This girl suffered enough at her school and they’d almost sent her to the floor just because someone wanted to be mischievous.  “I’m Blaine.  It’s really nice to meet you, Tina.  I’d, honestly, be honored to ruin your dinner by treating you to Lima’s finest coffee and a muffin.  I insist.  Besides?  You can let me do my part of keeping chivalry off the endangered species list,” he grinned teasingly at her trying to still get over the guilt he felt for being a jerk.  Even if he brushed his part off, it was still there.
