“Ugh. You look awful.” Nicki complained as she threw open my door.
“I don’t think the food is going to care what I look like as I’m scarfing it down,” I said. “And have you ever heard of a thing called knocking?”
“We think it’s rude where I’m from. Me and my brother have full-blown conversations through the bathroom door when he’s taking a sh—”
“No more. I don’t think that’s pertinent demographical information.” I stepped past her before she could ruin my appetite. “I think we made it up before Lacee. She won’t have to come jump on my bed now.”
Nicki and I met Lacee at the front door of the dorm, but she wasn’t alone.
Andrew gave me a nervous smile and gave me a halfhearted wave.
I couldn’t believe he remained in the lobby after running from me at every turn the day before.
Lacee took his hand and flipped her long blond hair across her shoulder.
“Nicki, Allie, this is Andrew, Andrew, Nicki and Allie.” Lacee bubbled with excitement. They were definitely cute together.
“Nice to meet you.” My voice was stiff.
“Um, yeah.” Andrew looked at the white-speckled tile.
“Come on. I smell food.” Lacee pulled Andrew’s hand.
When Nicki and Lacee went to the bathroom, I leaned across the table as soon as they were out of earshot. “One day I’m your girlfriend, and the next, I’m a plague?”
“I didn’t mean to lead you on.” He looked uncomfortable.
“No. I didn’t think I was your girlfriend, but I thought we were at least beginning to be friends.”
“I don’t think now is the time to talk about it.”
“You have some reason why you didn’t want to talk to me.” I unfolded my napkin.
“Like I had been forbidden to talk to you?” He gave me a meaningful glance and then a nod.
The waitress interrupted us. The girls returned from the bathroom as if they had known the she would be on her way to bring the food over. The bacon smelled great, but it was difficult not to stare at Andrew. His last statement had piqued my curiosity.
“So Andrew, what are you majoring in?” I took a bite of my butter-covered, syrup-drowned waffle.
He glanced up at me. “Law.”
“Hmm, interesting. I’m still not sure what I want to be when I grow up.” Lacee giggled.
I couldn’t help but laugh when Andrew gave her a quick appreciative inventory as if he thought she might have already grown up.
His face reddened when he realized I had caught him.
I nodded at Lacee and lifted my brow.
He shook his head with an eye roll.
I giggled. He liked her a lot better than the stalker girl.
Andrew’s mood lightened the longer we sat at the table.
“Your popularity level just skyrocketed. What other guy on campus has three hot girls on his side at breakfast.” Nicki gave Andrew a wide smile.
The waitress brought the check.
Lacee chimed in. “Yep. The envy of every guy on campus.”
“One in particular,” he said under his breath, but I wasn’t sure that I had heard correctly.
“What was that?” I said.
Andrew pulled out his wallet. As he sifted through credit cards, his gaze was shifty. “Oh, I said I don’t have any small bills.”
He was hiding something.
