Damien didn’t own a car. His family lived in a small apartment nearby, so he always walked to and from school. He’d do that again today, considering he hadn’t brought any bus money this time. He walked down the side walk, occasionally tugging at his turtleneck or messing with his hair.
Alex got in the car and started it. He had to pick his sister up from the middle school, and then he could drive home. His car was in need of a repair, but…money was too tight to allow it right now.
“Nothing really, you?” She asked, looking over at him sweetly. She’d known him for a while but only ever as a classmate
"No, it's totally fine." Rae tapped his shoulder. "It feels nice out. Shall we sit outside." There were chairs and tables outside in the front of the building. Take wondered if they would see one of their classmates, since this place was so close to the school.
“Sure, sounds good to me,” Nathan replied with another smile. He held the door open for her again.
(ack sorry i didn’t see your post earlier)
Rae found a table that was shaded so that it would be a bit cooler. "It's so nice today." Looking around she saw many people walking down the street with smiles on their faces. Happiness filled her, Rae was glad her dad moved them all here. "Do you think we'll see anyone from school?"
Nathan shrugged. “It’s possible,” he replied, not really wanting to. Up until this year he hadn’t exactly had people lining up to be his friend (and even now he wasn’t very popular). The idea of seeing people from school made him a bit anxious, but Rae was so happy he supposed it wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world to see a classmate.
