Dinner with Becky

I sighed again, and got up. My underwear was soaked through. I threw them in the wash and grab another pair. My jeans survived, at least. I also put on a light sweater. The whole thing was leaving me feeling ****.

Becky was quick to enter the room. Each week she would drag me with her to sit in the lunchroom. I think it's a strategy to make me less geeky and more outgoing. Whatever.

She scrunched her nose when she entered. The scent of sex was strong. But I'd walked in on worse.

"You coming, or what?" I said to her, as I moved past her out of the room. I didn't want that conversation.

"Someone did." She mutters darkly before following along.

When we got to the cafeteria, I got some pasta to eat. I noticed Tyler sitting alone. I ignored if Becky's friends were somewhere, and went straight to him.

Becky followed, and soon her whole entourage had crowded the table. The volume basically made it impossible to actually talk. Though Tyler managed to engage in small talk.

Tyler pushed a piece of paper to me. I looked at it, and grinned. It was *Kanji*. I grabbed my pen and replied on the note. I couldn't help but lick my lips as I did. Huh. Maybe it wasn't pasta I wanted. What could it be?

'I can't write Japanese, unfortunatly. I'm just a weeb. :P nice to see you saw my screen, though.'

I pushed it back to him, and he replied.

'Oh, it was just a *message* I translated from google. I don't speak it either. Just asking how class was today!'

Another pass.

'Oh, gotcha. It was okay. Kinda felt ill in the afternoon, so I skipped. -_- How about you? :D Classes going well?'

I pass it back before taking some more pasta. I try focusing on the taste of the of the sauce. It's just not hitting the spot, though.

Tyler seems focused on correcting Becky. Her anecdotes somehow managed to always be wrong.

I thought we'd finished the notes before he managed to actually respond.

'I'm sorry you felt sick. :^( My classes are boring. I'd rather be home playing video games. XD Know any good titles I should check out?'

Hmm. A gamer? I sigh. He was cute. But that doesn't explain why I was feeling so needy. The urge was already back.

'It happens. Plud anything to skip Human Resources. :') Sorry. XD Not much of a gamer myself. Got my 3DS and that's it. If you want obscure Japanese stuff though, i'm your gal. ;D'

I bite my lip as I pass it back. Maybe I should head to the bathroom? Just until it passes?

He smiles at my response. I don't know why, though.

He replies back, not responding to Becky for a moment.

'Any titles in particular?'
