"Ivy, what do you think you are doing?" Lucas says in a very offended tone, as if I stole his clothes while he was in the river.

"Taking my car out," I say, but it comes out more like a question.

"Exactly, just come with me. We're going to the same place," he says, shrugging.

"You scared me, Lucas," I say, rolling my eyes, and he laughs. He fucking laughs. "Come on," he says, waving at me. I roll my eyes and get into his car.

Apparently there's this new shop where we get to do pottery designing and making it from scratch . I didn't want to do it . I suckat art but then Celeste practically begged and I felt bad coz I've ditched ach and every food plans with her so this seemed better .

We reach the place and immediately notice Celeste and Felix. Celeste skips the formalities and goes straight for a hug, while Felix just nods to me. Lucas and they both do a bro handshake kind of thing.

"Where's Phoenix?" Lucas asks.

"Um, he's busy planning a date night with Lucy."

"Who's Lucy? Last I checked, he was hell-bent on a girl who he was obsessed over."

"Yeah, um, she's Lucy. He just wasn't telling me her name or quite literally anything about her, so I named her Lucy," Celeste says, shrugging. I sit opposite Celeste while Lucas sits next to me. They explain to us about the workshop and we start creating shapes from our clay.

"I'm bored," Lucas says.

"We're literally at a pottery workshop, Lucas." "Yes, and?" I roll my eyes at his sassiness.

"Oh, let's play 21 questions." Oh fuck no.

"I'd rather not."

"Oh, okay," he says silently. Although I love silence, this one somehow bothers me. It's not your job to make someone happy, Ivy, and since when do you care about silences and feelings? . I take a deep breath.

"Let's play," I say, and his smile returns.

"Um, would you like to have something?" the waiter asks.

I want to have nothing, but I'm not supposed to skip any meal. But I also can't manage to get the food inside me.

"Um, I'll have a cup of cold coffee."

"Anything for you, ma'am."

"I'll have a cup of black coffee." Felix and Celeste also give their orders, and we resume our pottery. "Okay, I'll start."

"Summers or winters?"

"Summers."

"Oh, I somehow assumed you were a winter person. You ask."
