“Oh, okay.” She whispered to herself, keeping a warm smile on, even if that was the last thing she wanted to do in that moment. He wasn’t necessarily being critical of the way she tried to present herself today, but she was sensitive and took it that way. Always getting attention and nothing but compliments, she didn’t quite know how to react to anything but that. Blame it on her father for always making sure she looked her best whenever going somewhere. It almost became a habit, or a thing she must do.
Not wanting to discuss it any further when it was also unnecessary, she shook those negative thoughts away and chuckled at his assumption. He wasn’t completely wrong, being on the list for the second time she was getting more and more attention, she could feel more eyes on her whenever passing down the hallway so she wouldn’t be surprised if they took this day to do something for her. It was a natural thing she expected but that only made it feel and seem like it wasn’t special. What would feel special is getting all of that from just one person. “Trust me when I tell you I wouldn’t completely like that,” emphasizing the word completely, just to show she wasn’t opposed to that idea, she chuckled and shrugged. “I’d rather have one special person, but that’s hard to find.” She quietly added, keeping a sweet smile as she took a second to look around them, hoping to see… No.
Quickly looking back at him she slowly nodded at his question, even if she wasn’t sure of her answer. “My list is… interesting.” Crossing her arms, she walked closer to him and leaned against the locker like he did. “I got Brandon first but I don’t think I ever had a proper conversation with him. Then Dom, Daniel, Luciano and you.” She added, shrugging her shoulders but quickly switched the subject back to him, not wanting to bother him with her matches when she didn’t know how to feel about them. “I’m happy you’re happy,” with a grin that matched his, she quickly added, figuring he must’ve gotten someone special which only made her more curious about his plans. “Plans with a beautiful girl, huh?” With a slight smirk she turner to face him properly. “I hope you figure out something beautiful then, I don’t expect anything less from you. And what are you doing here then? Go get her!” Jokingly adding, she lightly nudged his arm.
