Monday, Lunch

"So...what's her name?" Arian says, placing his lunch tray next to me. He avoids eye contact with me to seem casual, but it doesn't work on me.

"Who? Janet Glinson?" I ask, gesturing to the girl sitting across the room from us with her friends. Arian rolls his eyes.

"I mean the girl. I don't get these vibes from you often man..." He smiles at me, hoping to get me to 'spill the tea' as Lexie says.

"There is no girl!" I chuckle, pushing Arian. He knows me too well.

"It's that girl Alexandria, huh? God bro, you really have a type." By 'type' he meant my 'thing' for blondes. I liked one other girl, okay? Her name was Annabelle and we met her in the Forbidden Cities. That doesn't mean I like all blondes, though!

"It's not like that," I fidget with my fork and side salad, "we're...just friends." I couldn't help but remember the prattle exchange yesterday. How her hand felt in mine. They were light and delicate yesterday, but seemed like they could injure if needed . It's almost like they had two personalities. One for the outside and one for the inside.

"Yeah," Arian rolls his eyes, "friends."
