Since the party, Lakshya did nothing but work. It was nothing exciting, nor was there anything noteworthy, but Lakshya worked at the café to pass the time. Well, there were a few moments where he hung out with the high kid he met in the party - David "Davy" Powers - who was quite the parkour master. He was entertaining, to say the least, if not a bit reckless. Lucky and Davy were two
very opposite individuals as far as Lucky knew. While Davy was free-spirited, Lucky was reserved,
bound almost to rules. Davy liked to chill; Lucky preferred getting his work done. I would add more examples here, but to be fair, Lucky only met up with Davy during the past week like twice. Even so, Lucky still considered the high kid a friend - or a potential friend - someone he could enjoy free time with and possibly learn a thing or two from.
Shutting his locker, Lucky looked around the almost empty hallway. It was lunch, so most of the students were either in the canteen or in their usual hangout spots across the campus. Lucky was even
lucky enough to witness (well, more like listen in on) a fight between two - maybe three girls around the corner, something about one of them screwing the other's ex and lying about it. It ended with tears, that's how much Lucky could tell. He was gone by the end of it anyway; to look for someone at least remotely familiar.
And someone familiar he found. In the form of the Queen herself; Dominique Saunders.
He heard a lot more about her that past few hours in school than he did during the party, so it was safe to say that Lucky was curious. She looked interested in him when they were at the party the previous week, but why him specifically? He was the new kid; he had no reputation. Shouldn't the post popular girls get with the popular guys anyway? Unless Lucky's reputation reputation precedes him and he never knew about it.
Approaching her, Lucky noticed the down mood she was in.
"Well, looks like the queen has finally returned." He said, stepping up beside her.
"Looks like you... had a blast." Well, he couldn't assume she was sad about the trip without knowing her, could he?
Time: Lunch
Location: Café
Interacting with: Jackson
@WintergreySpecial mention: Reading Domi's text
Analise was over the moon. Sure, the day started off sucky, but being with Jackson was enough to change her mood almost instantly. He didn't even need to try, and that was what worried her. Was she already in too deep? Was there something she was missing?
The over thinker in Anna was going strong, the hot chocolate now cold in her hands.
"I don't know if I ever thanked you but," Anna paused, pressing a kiss to Jackson's jawline again,
"thank you for bringing me here. I feel better no--"A light buzz filled the air, cutting Anna short. It reminded her a lot like the time at the beach: they would be having a moment until her phone would ruin it.
'I really need to start turning off my phone while I'm with him...'Plz b @ school. Need 2 talk. :(
Domi was back?! Anna almost jumped out of her seat happily. After a week without any word from her, Anna was glad to see (or in this case, read) that Dominique was still around. But from the looks of her text, things didn't look as good as Anna had hoped. Did something happen in the Hamptons? Was Dominique hurt? Concern for her friend was enough for Anna to push away her current happiness (and hesitation to return back to school). Looking at Jackson, she asked;
"Ah, Jackson? I need a ride back-- Dominique's here and she doesn't sound happy."I'm on my way now! Just wait by your locker!
