Just another casual day of studying in a corner at Starbucks. Lyra was supposed to meet up with me here half an hour ago but she's late as usual. Girls, I sighed. Just as I was about to flip to the next page, she crashed into the opposite chair with two steaming cups. "Thank me, nerd." Lyra said as she slid one cup to me, phone in the other hand already. "I never asked for it," She glared at me, "But thanks. I guess." I shrugged and took a sip. Peppermint hot chocolate.
"So... noticed anything different?" Lyra asked as she taps on her phone, probably tweeting about this. Her head raised as I gave no answer. Her brow raised as well. "You didn't notice anything did you." That wasn't a question. Shit. "Am I supposed to?" I eyed her closely, nothing unusual from what I can see. "I'm wearing hair sticks, dork ass. Jeez, and you're wearing glasses." She bantered. I calmly replied as I refocused on my book, "You're wearing glasses too." "I'm actually not, Kyle. Speaking of glasses, I saw Miranda with some wicked ones earlier today, never knew..." My mind drifted as she continued to babble on. Miranda.
Of course I noticed her new glasses. Not to sound like a creep but she looks absolutely beautiful in them. The way her eyes glitter as she starts talking about art just melts my heart. I wonder what other things does she like. Maybe I should start talking to her. Oh crap no what if she thinks I'm weird. Oh God.
I snapped back as Lyra snapped her fingers in my face. "What?" I pushed her hand back. I need to stop zoning out like that mid conversation. Well, not exactly a conversation when Lyra is the only one talking. I almost snickered when I saw her glaring at me again. "You know, the thing where you instantly space out when I mention Miranda is getting annoyingly cute." She smirked, still tapping away on her phone. "Prick." I mumbled as I sipped the chocolate. Maybe Miranda likes chocolate too.
(Lyra rolled her eyes. Kyle zoned out again. She snapped a photo of him and uploaded it to Instagram. Caption: "Chillin in starbucksss w/dis nerd. He space out wayyy too much lmaoo hella dorky :--)"
