"She's my ghost bestie."
"WHY do you even hang out with them?" Jess asks as she looks the couple up and down before turning back to Justin. "They're gross."
He hides his smile with a cough as he looks back at Carrier and Nick. The girl hands out flyers with a devilish grin as the boy smiles supportively. Justin sighs and looks back at Jess. "They're not that bad. And if you were alive—"
"That's rude," she pouts as she stands in front of him, hugging her favorite shirt. "Alive Jess was just as much of a coward as dead Jess. I just know that no one can see me make a fool of myself except for you."
Her eyes trail down the hall, and her smile drops a bit. "Here comes Julie," she says. "Poor girl. Do you think she knows what she's gonna do?"
They both watch as the girl opens her locker and is joined by her friend Flynn. "I don't know," Justin admits, adjusting the headphone in his ear. "All I know is that we're headed to her house after school today."
"What? Why?" Jess asks as he stands up and puts away the headphones before making his way over to Julie, Flynn, and now Carrie. "Rude, we were talking!"
"Oh my gosh, Flynn! Don't bother coming!" Carrier says happily.
"Yo, Carrie," Justin says as he pauses next to her. "Seriously?"
She simply arches a brow. "See you in music."
Jess shakes her head as the girl walks away with her boyfriend. "I know there is good somewhere under that outfit," she mutters.
"Sorry about her," Justin says when he turns to Flynn and Julie. "I'm sure I don't have to remind you that she is a lot." He adjusts the violin case on his back. "I just wanted to confirm tonight?"
"Tonight?" Flynn asks. "What about tonight?"
"Julie and I were paired for that big science project."
"We were?" Julie frowns before her eyes widen. "We were! Yes, tonight."
"Great," Justin smiles. "I'll text you about timing. Also, good luck today. You'll do great!" He flashes them two thumbs up before he walks away with Jess trailing behind him.
"She's cute," Jess comments as he makes it to the music room and starts tuning his violin.
He scoffs. "Not my type."
"I know." Jess sits at the window sill with her sketchbook in hand. "She's just so adorable, you know? She just needs a push, I think. Then, I'll finally be able to hear the great Julie Molina sing! I've waited a whole year for this, Justin. I want to hear her sing!"
