"Are you going to mope around all day?"

"My Prince is dead."

"I know, I'm heartbroken, too, but we have to focus on our exams," Mia said, shooting a look at Anna who was mourning over a paper clip photo of Prince; She actually looked like she had been crying. "Come on, pull yourself together."

"That's a lot coming from you, Miss Absent," Anna noted, giving her a look back. She sat up and looked down at the Fermat's problem on the blackboard (yes, they were in the auditorium again) with a small purse to her lips. "I don't think you've ever missed a day of school in your life, and suddenly we can't come over to your place anymore. If I didn't know any better, I'd say you'd found yourself a dick. Oh wait, I do know better, I'm a psychology major."

Gagging on her breath, Mia stared wide-eyed at Anna and then blushed because in that very moment, Eli walked past them, carrying his usual garbage bag, cleaning up old trash. She just managed to catch the little twitch his lips made before he was gone again, cleaning in the rows behind them. "Jesus, Anna. Could you maybe keep your voice down?"

"Why? It's just me and Zoe, your best friends," She reminded her, giving Mia a pointed look. "In case you've forgotten that. Why all the secrecy?"

Mia's eyes darted to Eli who appeared again in the corner of her eye. He picked up an empty water bottle, and in that moment, their eyes met. It was just for a split second, then they both looked away as if just looking at each other would reveal their little secret. "Can't a girl have some privacy?"

"I think you're misunderstanding the whole 'bff' thing," Anna commented, twirling her pen between her fingers. "Girls don't keep secrets from each other, but if you're not ready to tell us who the fresh dick is yet, then just give us the dirty deets. Is the sex good?"

Spluttering, Mia blushed into a pink shade again and tried to hide her face when she didn't want Eli seeing her. She knew he could hear every word of their conversation. "Could we please not talk about this here?"

"Fine, then we'll come over tonight for a girls night, won't we, Zoe?" Anna told and looked at Zoe who had been quiet up until now.

"Huh?" She said, looking up from her laptop, completely blank as to what they were talking about. "Sorry, what?"

"Hello, could you pay a little attention?" Anna complained. "I just discovered that Mia here has found herself some dick and she won't tell us where it's coming from."

"Oh," Zoe said, her eyebrows flying to the sky. "Really? Why haven't you said anything?"

"Because!" Mia protested, "It's non of your business! What if I don't want to talk about it?"

"So the sex is bad, then?"

"What?! No, that's not—"

"So it's good, then? Is he a gentleman or are you getting you some Tarzan sex?"

Good Lord, Mia blushed crimson. "Please, can we just drop it? I'm begging you." She spotted Eli, and she was certain that he deliberately lingered within ear range just to hear their conversation. He was pursing his lips, perhaps to stop himself from smirking. Mia just wanted the ground to swallow her whole.

"No, I'm not letting this rest until I get at least something," Anna demanded with a little grin and crossed her legs. "Just tell us, was it awesome? I noticed your skin is glowing brighter these days. Could it be from recieving some extra powerful, repetitive and perfectly doled out, wet orgas—"
