“Y-Yeah.” I said finally. It was kind of late, but It was something. I couldn’t think of anything to say. I just looked over at her and her hands were kind of twiddling there on her lap.
“Ryan…” Lauren said.
“Yeah?” I said as I saw Emily mouthing to me to get over there. I tried to ignore her, but she wanted things her way of course. She threw something at me and Lauren looked back and saw Emily. “I’ll be right back Lauren.” I got up and before I left, Lauren stood up and hugged me.
She whispers, “I’m so happy.” I felt something like a tear run down her face and onto mine. She sat back down and I looked at her, she was smiling at me with a tear going down her face. I wonder what was going on. I waved to her and walked toward Emily.
“What do you want?” I asked.
“What’s up with you? I thought you and Ashley are going out?” she asked.
“No, I told you she said no.”
“Didn’t she ask you when you two talked?”
“No. We just talked and she kissed me on the cheek.”
“Oh my gosh Ryan, you are so stupid”
