Chapter 88: SAS

　　Maria is an idiot. She won’t stop teasing me. I bite a piece of my cake and a tiny smile forms on my lips as my phone lights up with a new text. Ben nudges me with his foot, I look up from my phone and my cheeks redden at the memory from Saturday. It’s all I think about these days and Maria’s jokes are not helping.

　　“What’s up?” He props his hand on the table. I shrug. How do I tell him my best friend is asking naughty questions about him? She wants to know how far we went and if we intend to do the deed next time.

　　I don’t have answers for her or myself.

　　“The ceiling,” I say with a smile and throw an arm around his neck. He sniggers. “Just happy to be here.”

　　Ben grunts. He watches me finish my snack while the rest of the cafeteria minds their business. We are sitting away from his friends today. I don’t mind but Olivia is there. We don’t talk but I still don’t like her.
