"Are you ok?" Clayton walks up beside me and I mentally roll my eyes.
"Yeah I'm ok, I just slipped earlier." I said unsure if that was the right thing to say.
"Oh. I hope you get better." He said awkwardly.
My mouth forms into a thin line and I
Nod my head slowly not wanting to talk to him any longer— turning to walk away he speaks up."Wait. I-I wanted to talk to you about what I did the other day." He stutters.
Sighing I look at him waiting for him to continue.
"I know what I did to you was wrong, and I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable in any way... I just thought you felt the same way I did, I know that still doesn't justify my actions but let me take you to dinner so I can make it up to you for being a dick."
Do I really wanna go?
He seemed pretty genuine, but I needed to remind that this was platonic.
"As friends?" I question. Not wanting him to get an idea.
"As friends." He smiles at me.
Nodding my head once more I sigh. "I'll... Think about."
"Good! Ok I'll be here when you make up your mind." He grins backing up slowly before turning around.
I shook my head at his weirdness and walk towards my destination.
Knocking on the door I hear a faint voice signaling for me to come in.
I inhale sharply closing my eyes putting on my best fake smile before entering the room.
"Hi, Chloe I'm just here to take you vitals is that alright?" The little girl in the hospital bed nods smiling.

"Jay you've been walking like that ever since we got here..." Tiana pauses for a minute before gasping.
"Who got you walking like that?!" She yells making everyone that was around us in the mall look at her.
"Shut up!" I whisper yell at her before looking down in embarrassment.
She gives an apologetic look and everyone goes back to minding their business.
We walk into the second store of the day. "So... You gonna tell me?"
"No, Tia I didn't do anything. I just... Fell." I lied knowing good and well that wasn't the case.
She laughs. "Jayce, quit playin' with me I know that walk when I see it."
I squint my eyes looking at her. She wasn't going to give up any time soon. Even if it killed her.
I sigh. "Ok, Fine... I might've... Did something."
She squeals like a little girl. "Oh my god, Finally! Who was it? Is it someone I know?"
