[ Sorry, I had a swim meet last night. I would'ave posted, but too much stress. I'll post when I wake up some more... even though I woke up a couple hours ago. I'm still all groggy and sleepy. ]

((hope this isn't dead -_- finally get to post))

{Don't Let Me Go}

Alex glanced up as the door opened again, desperate for another distraction so she would have an excuse to not return to her work. She raised her eyebrows in pleasant surprise as she recognized Matthew. They were from around the same area, and Alex had run across him a couple of times. She wouldn't say they were especially close friends -- although Alex didn't really have a lot of those, seeing as she never made any effort to socialize -- but they had had a conversation or two every once in a while. You know. Hey, how are you. Good, what about you? Oh, nothing much. Then they have the awkward silence, and then Alex would usually slink away. 

Yeah. That's how talking with people went for Alex. She turned back to the scribble of numbers and variables on her paper and considered them for a moment before sighing. In comparison between doing physics homework and pulling an awkward conversation that would last maybe a minute (and then Alex would have to go back to physics once more), she thought she would take the conversation. Whatever. Let's do this. 

Rising from her seat, Alex abandoned her books and papers and stepped over towards the counter where Matthew was just beginning to order something. She would wait until he was finished speaking with the employee before she shook her head at them, indicating that she wasn't here to order something herself. Instead she gave Matthew a small wave from his left side to get his attention before saying, "Hey, Matthew. What's up? You remember me?" 

Awkward feelings! Awkward feelings everywhere! Alex internalized, keeping her pleasant smile on her face as she fought the urge to squirm and scuttle away before the conversation even started. He would probably think she was trying to pick him up or something, crap, she should've thought of that. Why else would a girl walk up to you in a cafe and strike up a conversation? Crap, crap, crap, crap. Awkward, sooooo much awkward.

Matthew Nicholas Jones

((that is indeed what he is probably thinking she's trying to do. LoL I honestly don't know what goes on in his mind ;~;))

Matthew stepped off to the side as soon as he gave his order, waiting for them to bring it back and call his order number out. A small movement from the corner of his eyes caught his attention and he turned his head to the left, to see a familiar looking girl standing there. It took about two or three minutes before he matched her name to her face, but at least he had done so. 

The boy smiled pleasantly at her, nodding in her direction. "Of course I remember you, Alex," he told her. "How could I forget?" Hearing his order number being called, Matthew excused himself, taking his order and thanking the cashier, before turning back around to look at Alex. "So, how have you been lately? Are you here alone?" the brunette asked, raising an eyebrow slightly. If she was alone, then maybe he could ask to sit with her. Unless she was busy doing something else of course. If that was the case, then he would just leave and wander about like he normally did, until he had something to keep in distracted enough to stay in one place.
