As Everlearn slowly lowered the phone and turned back, he flinched backward, noticing a face just behind him.
"Hey!" he exclaimed as a giggle followed.
It was Rosa, her pink eyes staring at him, and he had no idea when she'd snuck up on him like that.
"Your girlfriend calling for the night?" she teased as Everlearn scoffed with an eye roll.
"Girlfriend calling for...Yeah, right."
"What? You're no longer the weakest human in the school, therefore undeserving of love, are you?" she asked, hinting at his excuse from the last time.
"She's not my girlfriend, and she ain't calling for the night, whatever that's supposed to mean," he answered, but then he caught her staring at him, giving him a wink.
"Ewwww, pervert!"
He gave her that look that left Rosa in disbelief before she grinned.
An evil grin.
"What are you planning?"
"Nothing," she answered, though it was obviously a lie.
Still, Everlearn needed to be somewhere, and time was running out.
