"Dude, stop acting like you haven't eaten in days," I said, taking a bite of my birria tacos.

Celine gave me a nasty side-eye while Julian, shoveling his fourth taco into his mouth, looked up with a half-chewed grin. "Man, you're just mad because you didn't get extra guac."

"Guacamole saved me. It needs to be studied how I became obsessed out of nowhere," I said solemnly, taking another bite of my taco. "No, but really, Julian, do you even taste the food?"

He swallowed, wiped his hands on a napkin, and sipped his Sprite. "Taste it? I inhale it; it's a secret to my workout gains."

"Is that why you're so buff?" Celine asked, glancing at Julian with a smirk. Her cheeks got pinker when he leaned in. He puffed out his chest jokingly and flexed.

"What can I say? I work out to eat like this and still look good. Besides, a good workout isn't about lifting weights- sometimes it's about finding the right partner to get those extra reps in."

no way, this nigga just said that right in front of my tacos.

Celine coughed slightly, covering up her embarrassment while I crumpled up my napkin and threw it at him. Jade has a crush on this guy and doesn't even realize it. I rolled my eyes at the apparent flirting before stretching. Eating good food can knock a sister out.

"If you two keep this up, I'm gonna pack my stuff up and get outta here." I raised a brow when I saw Julian grin at me.

"Woah now, girl, sit your booty back down. There are no better people I'd rather eat some food with. Well, maybe my other friend, June, but he's kind of a loner and only wants to hang out with me."

Celine swallowed her food before raising a finger. "You keep mentioning this 'June' kid, and we've yet to meet him. What's up with that?"

I nodded. I remember seeing this guy with Julian sometimes, but he faces another direction, so I can't see his face, or he has his hood up. The dude's a mysterious one.

"Eh, I'll bring him around one of these days. He gets shy easy even though he has a charming personality once you get past that front he puts up. Ya'll would love him."

"I'm holding you to that. Well, it's been fun, but I gotta head back and get ready for bed." I stood, rubbing my satisfied belly, as they looked up at me.

"Alright, we'll catch you later. We're just going to chill." Julian spoke up, looking at Cel with expectant eyes. He totally wants her to stay with him a little longer.

She stared into his eyes before sighing. "I guess I'm staying. I'll text you later, Nai. Love ya."

"Love you too. See ya'll munchkins later," I called back, beginning my ten-minute walk to my dorm.

Once I returned to my dorm, the main light was off, and the nightlight was on in the corner. Hmm, Nat must be out right now. I kicked off my shoes and unlocked our room before leaving it open slightly. Natalie and I's dorm layout is when you walk into the door, there's the mini foyer, the shower is to the left, and the sinks and toilet are to the right side.

Our dorm had two sides; one side was our mini kitchen, which had enough room for a fridge, stove, cabinets, and island space for anything we wanted to store or place out. Our room was on the other side of the wall.
