She didn't mean to stare, but she often found herself forgetting not too. She wasn't used to interacting with people when she actually had to avoid doing so. The fact that the boy knew her made it worse. More for her being Peyton's roommate than having class together. It was easy to miss the people she had class with, since she generally focused on learning.
She set her book down when she realized he was actually trying to strike up conversation, and she nodded at his questions, the blush still in her cheeks. Vinnie...yes, we have Supernatural History together...and I'm Peyton's roommate...I take it you're friends then?"
She was terrible with small talk, especially when she was nervous to begin with, but she tried to keep it going. "I mean...you probably have lots of friends...everyone has lots of friends here...not that I've seen you around or anything." She really wasn't helping her image any, but she was terrified she was going to say something she shouldn't, and then it would just be awkward.
