Ahsoka Pov:

"You know ahsoka, you could at least feign interest in what I am saying."

propping my head up from my bed i catch bariss smirking from my desk chair. pulling myself up from my stomach and into a cross-legged position on the bed.

"Sorry, sorry, it's just I'm so distracted with..."

"That boy."

"no, no no... no that is not it."

"oh, then what was it."

"It was, was .. .. . . . uhm the test."

"What test."

"The ... oh fucking hell."

why the hell is she so smart at this. despite my horrible attempt to convince her otherwise. she right as per usual about this stuff, all those dumb romance novels probably. i can't stop replaying that scene over and over in my head. no matter what i just see him kissing that girl. I've tried everything to the point I'm here with bariss just to avoid being around him. not that i don't value her presence, she is my closest friend since i can't remember, but i would rather just be with padme, anakin and ... him.

"ahsoka, you can't just avoid him."

bariss starts on what i can only presume to be a speech to make me feel better.

"Avoiding problems will just make them harder to return to when you eventually must return to your life. look you have to go to school with him share classes Aswell as that, you can't just avoid him or ignore him forever. and hey think about all the friends and experiences you will miss out on by avoiding him. right now, you aren't out with them because he is there, you're missing out because a dumb boy likes someone else."

"bariss it's just not that simple."


"There you go again, with your sad sorry attitude. for fucks sake the ahsoka i know would never be like this. she would go out there and have fun despite the pain. but instead, she would rather be here moping around as i count of the periodic table or some crap. remember what bariss said, you have got to focus on you, and they can go fuck themselves."

she looked at me as if excepting me to just get up and walk out that door inspired. but that was the furthest thing from what would happen, and she was starting to understand that.

"Fine if you won't go, then I'm just going to make you."

Barris then began pulling on my arm, weakly i might add. but i just let her pull me up and out of the house.

"so where are we going then?"

"how does the mall sound?"

"Good." 

"alright then."

maybe this wouldn't be so bad.
