Students talked loudly, trays clattered, and the usual lunchtime chaos buzzed in the air
Eva and Lucien eating together
Lucien Hart
You didn’t eat lunch properly
Eva Derrin
I was just busy with the assignments
Lucien Hart
You could have told me, I would have done that for you
Eva laughed, cheeks pink as she stole another fry from his plate.
Mira Lennox
OH MY GOD, WHO ARE YOU TWO AND WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH MY BEST FRIEND?!
*comes with her tray*
Camden slid in on the other side.
Camden Wolfe
Is this what love looks like? Disgusting. I’m calling the cops.
Theo sat down calmly, sipping his drink
Eva laughed while Lucien rolled his eyes.
Talia River
Our baby has finally grown up
Lucien wrapped his arm around Eva’s shoulder like it was second nature.
Lucien Hart
Well, she's now my baby
Eva looked up at him, heart skipping, and for a second—just a second—everything else faded
Then Mira threw a napkin at her, Lucien catches it before it touches Eva
Mira Lennox
STOP LOOKING AT HIM LIKE THAT. YOU HAVE A WHOLE BOYFRIEND. SOME OF US ARE SUFFERING
Camden Wolfe
Can y’all stop making eye contact like you’re about to write poetry and fuck under a tree?
*Camden mimicked gagging sounds*
Lucien Hart
Camden
*calmly*
Lucien Hart
Shut up, please
Camden Wolfe
He’s so polite now. Love really does change people.
*grinning*
Lucien thumb brushed her hand under the table
.......
Lucien waits for her after every class.
He never says it. Never texts her “I’m here.” But when she walks out of the building, he’s always leaning against the wall, earbuds in, arms crossed—like he’s been standing there since before class started.
