"Oh my god," she offered with exasperation. "Yes Vance, we're eloping. It'll be super romantic." She had to raise her voice to be heard over the water that was coming near them, but her sarcasm was plainly obvious. She shook her head, "really though, he's a friend. You know the kind of people you like and hang out with? How did you not figure out I've been friends with your teammate?"
She knew the reasons but still. It wasn't like she was hiding her friendship. Only the awkward part of it that happened on Valentines. But they'd both gotten over that, which Felix was glad for. Simon was a good friend. "You keep telling me to be more open so I was. Plus, you know, he's had a shitty time of it. We've been commiserating over governments. Plus offering hi ma shoulder if he needs it. His dad is sick, figured he could use it." She smirked, "plus extra help for my Vance in sand plot."
