Denice didn't stop talking for a minute. While I picked my food, she was next to me chattering endlessly. She always had something to say, and it helped in keeping the conversations flowing. She starts a topic after another without hesitation. Silence was not in her dictionary, yet it didn't bother me that much. Actually, I was entertained by just listening to her. I'm not fond of talkative people, but she left quite an impression on me that it just didn't bother me at all.800Please respect copyright.PENANAtPibzKNU1L

800Please respect copyright.PENANAQ4bmXhZ1Au
"You need to tell me how to get hot friends like yours," Denice said, eyeing down my group of friends, who were messing around at the table in the center of the cafeteria. I watched Jordan shove a French fry up Cody's nostril then Cody takes it out and pushes it back in Jordan's mouth.800Please respect copyright.PENANA4CqtSJzulR
800Please respect copyright.PENANAcOKqrvmgaH

I don't get what sluts see in them. Then again, they're sluts; they'll chase anything with a dick. Just like how my friends would chase anything with boobs.800Please respect copyright.PENANAXsVMvYn1Hv

"Damn you, Cody Howard, you're getting sexier every day," Denice muttered, pervertedly looking at him as he choked to death.800Please respect copyright.PENANAY7omYEDgPv

800Please respect copyright.PENANAhTAI2DsWzS
We approach them and sit down without an invitation. Cody, Jordan, Kyle, Tyler, and...Amber? Right, apparently, they got back together or made up or whatever, so it's only natural for them to be together. Well, I'm not one to complain when I'm bringing Ryan to the table as well. Speaking of which, I haven't seen him since I left him in the school hallway for first class.800Please respect copyright.PENANAuCy1afAu1B

800Please respect copyright.PENANAAkmEDjJjkb
"Denice McQueen! You're back, I see," Cody declares, looking down at her. I notice his eyes linger a little longer on her bust area, but I choose to ignore it now and save it for a better time.800Please respect copyright.PENANAU84cNu7fnK
800Please respect copyright.PENANAdU79ZODD2I

800Please respect copyright.PENANAVtwtVqm344
"Oh God!" I put my hand in my mouth, expecting a gag on the way. Cody winks at her and she just smirks wider. I can see my impression of her floating away. For real, do not be fooled by a cute dress.800Please respect copyright.PENANAf8W6lKzS2F

"Alright, alright, charming, William, really charming," I tell him as he grins stupidly at me. Ryan texts me at that moment, telling me that something came up and he had to leave the school. I text him back, asking him if everything is ok.800Please respect copyright.PENANA5KgYculwjK

Classes passed mostly in a blur since I zone out most of the time. At the end of the day, Denice and I exchange phone numbers before going our separate ways. Will also leaves us to go to work, which is in a bar close to the school apparently.800Please respect copyright.PENANAbPp0hGodM8

On the way back home, I kept the AUX connected to my phone and controlled the music. Cody didn't seem to mind since we both kind of have the same taste in music. What bothered him though was when I start to sing along. He says my voice is too good to waste in the car or in the shower...or something along these lines. I chose to believe him.800Please respect copyright.PENANABGvcqb1Ob9

I asked Rosie if she needed any help with cooking, but she just told to do my homework. I couldn't focus on doing anything, though, especially when I was busy worrying about Ryan. I tried phoning him more than 8 times, but he still wouldn't answer my call. I tried for the last time, but it took me straight to voicemail. I sigh in frustration and throw my phone on the bed.800Please respect copyright.PENANAiheiPY5rqa
800Please respect copyright.PENANAR9D7gzUkSZ
800Please respect copyright.PENANAxMJbkeDxFL
I was never the type to worry too much. I would usually take things easy and be chill about it. But when it comes to this, I have to care for Ryan just like he cares for me. And so I didn't stop worrying and pacing around the room till my phone echoed in the room. I jumped on the bed and grabbed my phone before it fell.800Please respect copyright.PENANAZP45WZTvqB

"Well, Ryan left school early today and said that something came up. And when I asked him if everything was okay, he said it is now," I fill her in quickly without hesitation. I figure I need a little of what they call a "girl talk" to calm a little or probably stress more, depending on what the fuss this "girl talk" is about. I never had one, but I know it's different than the ones I have with the guys.800Please respect copyright.PENANAPPBUV1tFDS
