“Oh, it’s only what everyone’s been talking about lately…” Eric announced matter-of-factly.

Through sheer dogged perseverance, my best friend had finally managed to convince me to meet the first-year I’d be showing around the Academy. Not only that, but he insisted on accompanying me to where we were due to meet. For moral support, he said… Yeah, right!

“How can you not even remember a girl who asked you out? That’s just mean, dude,” Eric teased me as he tried to keep up with my stride.

“I swear to you, man, I don’t know who she is!” I kept protesting. I really didn’t know who he was talking about, yet the entire Academy was abuzz about this first-year that had apparently asked me out on a date a few days ago.

“Please don’t tell me you’re ignoring Marceline’s blog,” Eric said with a scandalized look on his face. “Everything she writes is pure gold. I’ve read every article she’s ever posted thus far!”

“Oh, but I am ignoring her blog because I hate gossip with a passion,” I replied flatly, but then another thought struck me like a lightning bolt. “Ah, crap, did Marceline find out about Marie and me already?”

Marie was the only one who could possibly fit that description, and even then, nothing really made any sense. She’d only hinted at us meeting again some other time, and there’d been no one else around to hear her say that. Unless Marie went straight to Marceline to report the story herself. But if that’s the case, why would she even do something like that?

“What? No, no, it’s not Marie,” Eric said. “The girl’s name is Sophie Miller, apparently.”

“Miller?” I asked as I racked my brain a bit. “I don’t think I’ve heard that name around here before. It’s American, isn’t it?”

“Yup!” Eric seemed overly excited about her, like he knew something I didn’t. I hate it when he does that.

“So what else is new, Eric?” I continued playing along. “There’s something you’re not telling me again, isn’t there? Something you’re just dying to spring on me, I can tell!”

“Mmm, nothing much… Just that apparently Sophie’s the one you’re going to be chaperoning starting from today,” he grinned as he dropped his latest bombshell.

“Oh, for fuck’s sake…” I groaned in disbelief. “To hell with this bullshit, I don’t need any of this drama!”

“Well, it’s a bit late for that…” Eric mused, smugly nodding toward something in the distance. Or someone. Turning my gaze forward, I couldn’t miss the incredibly rude girl from a few days ago, waiting for me patiently on a wooden bench, phone in hand. Her saving grace was that she looked even more beautiful than I remembered. The long, dark brown hair hanging from her shoulders was tied back in an elegant ponytail. She was wearing a dark blue sweater with matching jeans, but they did nothing to hide her eyecatching body. As I found myself admiring her again, memories of our prior encounter flooded my mind again.

“Just so you know, that girl never asked me out,” I said, turning toward Eric.
