The taller of the two college boys looked across the bar, at the brunette who was sitting at a table in the corner. She was drinking Coke and talking to her friend, which he recently realized is a routine of hers. He knew her well; from the hallways, as well as class.

It confused him how she seemed to like it that way. He also knew that she was not just hard to get, but nearly impossible to.
