Anikka touched her hair. The Dutch braid still felt fine. But it won't if you keep touching it, she reminded herself. She hitched her backpack up on her shoulders and entered the cafe. She looked around blankly, not seeing Daisy or Bella.
Aubrey laughed and pulled away. "Nice, Bella. You let me hug your sweaty self!" She looked around and spotted Annika, waving to get her attention.
Bella snickered. "Yup. But in my defense, Daisy, exactly how long have you known me?"
Anikka began to panic a little. She didn't see- Daisy's hand caught her eye. She hurried over with a look of relief in her face.
Bella gave her other bestie a bright smile and wave. "I'd hug you if I wasn't covered in sweat."
"Hey, in my defense, you're not always sweaty," Daisy teased Bella. Turning to Annika, she smiled. "Look, someone I can hug with fear of getting sweat on me!"
"Hey!" Bella exclaimed playfully. "But touche."
Daisy laughed quietly at Bella's statement before wrapping her arms around Annika in a hug.
Anikka hugged Daisy tightly and sat down. "Hey Bella."
"Hey Anikka." She replied as she say down too, then promptly put her head down on the table and closed her eyes. She groaned. " I'm tired… "
(Isn't it, like, 1 AM for you, Nat? Almost 2?)
Daisy sat down beside Annika, across from Bella. "Well, you can order some coffee with your food," she pointed out teasingly.
(12:53 for meeee!)
Anikka adjusted the strings on her hoodie absentmindedly.
(Uuhhh…..mmaaayyybbbee?)
"Very funny Daisy." She said, getting up and ordering coffee and a muffin anyway. She came back quickly and put her food down.
(I just realized that all three of our characters are Christians…or like Christian music at least, which is fun! Maybe I can actually use some of my many spiritual pep-talks in this rp…..lol)
(Lol. Nat, you should sleep. We all should…
No one's going to, though, are we?
Also, yeah, I noticed that. Lol.)
Daisy smiled when she saw what Bella had grabbed, then went up to order a blueberry muffin and hot cocoa for herself.
(Yup, if I try to sleep, I'll just separate at my ceiling for hours and get zero sleep anyways)
Bella sighed. "Uhhgg…..Wyatt has to go home for a family emergency….And we've got a week til the competition….this is going to be hard."
"Really? I bet that's got to be hard," Daisy sympathized as she sat back down.
Bella nodded. "I know and get your mistrust of boys, but Wyatt's a sweet and amazing guy. He's only going away for a few days, but I'll still miss him, both as him being my partner and friend."
Anikka didn't order anything and picked at her nail.
Daisy looked down at her food and didn't respond verbally. She simply nodded her head slowly, before taking a sip of her drink.
(All right, I think we should wait for Turtle and Camie, now.)
(I never left…)
(Lol)
Bella looked over at Anikka. "Anikka, love, you should eat something."
(…Oh…
Well, you hadn't responded in a while…
I still think we should wait for Turtle, though.)
"Not hungry," Anikka muttered. She reached into her backpack and rummaged around before finding a notebook. She pulled it out and selected a bedazzled pen to write with. She started too write.
(…Oh…
Well, you hadn't responded in a while…
I still think we should wait for Turtle, though.)
(Oops, okay, sorry!)
(…Oh…
Well, you hadn't responded in a while…
I still think we should wait for Turtle, though.)(Oops, okay, sorry!)
(It's fine! Lol. I just don't want Tirtle to get left in the dust.)
(Alright. ;D)
(Yeah….tho rn we're just developing the girls' friendship so Turtle doesn't have to be present nor read the last commments…)
(True, true…)
(So continue?)
(So continue?)
(Sure.)
Daisy looked over at Annika, a worried expression on her face.
"You're sure you're not hungry?" he asked gently.
