Liz looked up from the book she was reading when she heard Jessie's voice. A smile lit up her face as she looked up, tucking her hair behind her ears. She had not seen Jessie lately but she had thought of him often since he had come over to fix her shower. She would even say that she had a crush on him. She suddenly wished she had put more thought into her clothing choice before leaving this morning. She was wearing a pair of shorts and one of her old and favourite t-shirts.
"Depends on what you are after but I have it on good authority that this place has the best hot chocolate in all of Shreveport." Liz answered, her smile growing even bigger. "I did find a few treasures. I'm celebrating. I wrote my last exam today. I officially made it through the semester alive." Liz blushed slightly. "That probably makes me sound like a nerd doesn't it. I mean, who celebrates by reading?"
Liz laughed nervously. She suddenly felt like a complete dork.
