ANNAGRACE REID

"who the fuck—" she started, but stopped herself as she turned to see that it was me. her facial expression softened a little. "oh. hey, annagrace."

"hey, billie," i greeted softly. "is your wrist okay? i didn't think i had grabbed it that hard, i'm so—"

"it's fine." she cut me off, gently rubbing her wrist with her other hand to soothe the pain.

i frowned, watching as she checked the time on her watch. "i've got to go."

"wait," i stopped her, my brows furrowing. "why have you been ignoring me? did i do something? if so, please tell me so that i can fix it."

"it doesn't matter," she muttered. "look, i've got to go, alright?"

"billie, please," i frowned again. "can we talk about this? i-i know this is probably selfish as hell, but i need to know what i did. it's been driving me crazy."

her face softened and she let out a sigh. "i guess, just... not today, alright? i've got a lot to do today."

"what about tomorrow? do you like coffee? we could go to this little cafe that's not too far from here, if that's okay? a-and if you don't like coffee, they've got other drinks, and snacks, and shit there. or we could just talk in one of our dor—" i started rambling, as usual, but she cut me off.

"the cafe is fine, ag. and i can't tomorrow either, but i can saturday morning," she cut me off with a small chuckle. "you need to take a deep breath and not ramble so much. or maybe don't; it's cute." she smirked before shoving her hands in her pockets and walking off.

it's cute?

that's surprising; usually, everybody just gets annoyed by it. it's not like i can help it though; if it was up to me, i wouldn't ramble on like that.

i watched as she walked away for a moment. a small smile formed on my face before i walked away as well, though in the opposite direction. i didn't have a class for the next two hours, so i walked back to my dorm.

i walked inside after using my key to unlock it. normani looked over at me, raising a brow. "you seem like you're in a good mood. what happened?"

"i talked to billie," i told her. "only for a few minutes though. we're gonna talk about everything saturday morning."

"what all did you say?" she questioned.

"i just asked why she's been ignoring me, and then asked if we could talk about it. she obviously said yes, but she's busy today and tomorrow, which why we're doing it saturday," i explained. "oh, and she called my rambling cute."
