"So when are you getting the results?" Riley asks me, twirling a strand of her dark hair. Even though she asked me a question, her complete attention is currently on some guy a few feet away from us.
"I got the results. I failed." I answer.
"Oh. That's—" Realization slams into her. Her eyes widen and she finally looks at me. "Wait what?"
I bat my lashes at her. "Finally decided to give me your attention?"
She gives me a flat look.
I look at the guy she had her eyes set on. "What was his name again?"
"Cale." She replies.
I tilt my head in wonder. "Sounds like a salad, doesn't it?"
She stomps her heel into my calf.
"I guess it's only the looks that matter?" I offer.
She shakes her head at me.
I lean against the lockers. "So?" I prompt. "Why are you ogling him and not sucking his face like you want to right now?"
She blows an irritated breath. "Apparently, he "doesn't do the same chick twice"." Riley uses air quotations.
"Sucks for him," I state. "He lost the lottery."
"If only he realized that." She sighs.
"There are other fish in the sea though. Don't beat yourself up."
Riley glances at Cale again.
He's surrounded by his football friends, including Sean. A couple of girls linger around them.
Riley's body tenses when one of them straight up walks up to Cale and slings her arm around his neck. Cale grins down at her before they press their lips against each other.
I look at Riley. Her lips are tightened and there's a frown on her face.
I look back at Cale and the girl. Several ways on how to wipe Riley's frown go through my mind. Starting with sweet little threats to the girl and a few pleasant words to the salad named Cale...
Riley cuts herself off from staring at them, turning towards me. "Yeah. Plenty of fish in the sea." She forces herself to smile.
My gaze flickers back to those people.
She catches on to my movement.
"They're not worth it." She tells me, pulling my eyes back to her. "Don't do anything."
I raise an eyebrow. "What am I gonna do?"
"Literally anything?" She raises an eyebrow. "Don't."
