“You started talking to me, it could be said that you’re bothering me.”

Semantics. And if I’m bothering you, why are you still here?

Who randomly brings someone coffee just to be nice? I’ve never met anyone who would do that.

Have you ever had friends? Because those are the people that do that. 

It’s okay. Why…didn’t you sleep.

Life has just been kind of hectic lately. I’ve gotta keep my grades up if I want to get into med school, and doing that means lots of work and hardly any sleep, unfortunately. ...How’ve you been holding up?

No probelm. -sits down- So whats got you stressed out? If you don’t mind me asking.

I don’t mind. It’s homework. Grades. School in general, really. Senior year is pretty crazy. 

Whoa, didn’t mean to interrupt. Just wanted to see if this chair was taken. But I did just grab a coffee and I think you need it more than I do. Here.

Really? Merci, that’s very sweet of you. No, that chair isn’t taken, you can sit here if you want. 

Do you think people are just going to bring you coffee for no reason?

No, but I did think that people weren’t going to bother me for no reason. I guess that was too optimistic. 

Oh…sorry. I was just…going to say…hi.

Oh, mon dieu. I’m so sorry Christine, I didn’t realize it was you! Hi. 

Who would be bringing you coffee? Do you see anyone around here who is up to being some girl’s butler right now?

I don’t know, someone who wanted to be nice and not interrupt me for no reason? No, I don’t. I don’t need a butler. 

Not at all 

I’m sorry. That must be kind of hard. 

I say if you want to join me you definitely should. This ruling by my side thing is a limited time offer.

Well in that case... help me up?

Why the fuck not? You seem….polite enough or whatever the fuck it is.

I think it’s because I’m not really poised and graceful or any of the other things fairytale princesses are supposed to be. I mean, I had to do all sorts of etiquette lessons when I was younger, but not many of them stuck. 

“Yep.”

So what’s Oz like? I read the book when I was younger. 

Why? Are you jealous? Or id you want to join me?

A mixture of curiosity and wanting to join you, I suppose.
