"I can't believe it's Friday already" Felicity says as she and Rushelle are walking down the hallway, on their way to their first class for the day.
"Yeah, the week flew pass quickly" Rushelle comments. They stop at Rushelle's locker and she takes out her text book for her first class then they continue on their way.
"Hey Fel, do you think that things will get weird if Garry and Krissy start dating?"
"Yeah, for us not them"
"At least I won't feel awkward alone when they start doing their cuddly stuff"
"Yeah...well I'll see you at lunch time"Felicity says before she goes into the classroom and Rushelle walks to her class.

Lunch time, Felicity is sitting by herself, waiting on the rest of them. Then Gareth comes over.
"Hey Fel, what's wrong?"
"What you mean? Nothing's wrong< why you ask?"
"It's just that, you're playing with your food and staring in space" he says gesturing the food she's playing with.
"It's just what I do when I'm thinking"
"What were you thinking about?"
"Nothing in particular, just some random stuff"'
Then Rushelle and Kristen come. Kristen sits beside Felicity and Rushelle beside Gareth.
"Hey guys, sorry we were late, we got a group assignment in geography class and we stay back for a while" Rushelle says.
"You and Kristen working together?" Felicity asks.
"Unfortunately, we are not, the teacher chose who we are to work with" Rushelle replies.
"Any of you want a cookie? I baked them" Felicity says holding out a plastic dish.
They all reach for one.
"It's delicious" Kristen comments.
"That's good to know because I'm baking more to bring to church tomorrow"
"What time will it start?"
"It's gonna start at 2:00"
"I can't wait" Kristen says.
They continue talking until lunch time is over then go to their classes.

Rushelle and Felicity are driving home.
"Sooo...are you excited about tomorrow?" Felicity asks.
"To an extent"
"So you don't want to go then?"
"That's not what I was saying, I do but I'm having second thoughts"
"I would prefer that you come but if you don't, it's alright"
"Yeah...ok"
Minutes later, Rushelle drives into her driveway and Felicity and Rushelle come out of the car.
As soon as Felicity closes the door, Rushelle asks, "When are you gonna bake the cookies?"
"I'm gonna start them a few minutes from now"
"I'm gonna help you"
"Thanks a lot"
"I'll be over in a few, I'm gonna have a shower and eat dinner"
