Hey, I guess I'm back!! This is probably going to be terrible. But yeah. Please read as much as you can without barfing.

Hi

I've never had someone talk back to me, so obviously I freaked out. I've never met this boy before.

Ummmmm.... Hello? How can you read my mind? I thought I was the only one who could. I asked. Wouldn't you be curious too, if some random person started speaking in your head?

I thought I was the only person who could read minds as well. Either way, hi, I'm Julian. He.... Thought? How do I explain that?

I'm Cassidy. Although my friends call me Cass. So...... Pronouns? Sexuality? As more than half the community is lgbtqiap+ it is considered respectful to ask about a person's pronouns.

He/him. Nothing fancy. Although, I'm bisexual. What about you? He replied.

She/her. I'm asexual, aromantic. Are you new to town, I've never seen you before. (The main character will be based off of me, so yes, I'm ace and aro. Just clearing things up)

Oh, I've lived here my entire life, but I don't get out much. I'm homeschooled, my mom has cancer.

Oh, I'm sorry. I-

I was interrupted by my friends all yelling "Cass!!" at once.

"Whats going on? Are you okay?" Ariella asked. She was very concerned.

"Oh, sorry. I just got lost in thought. Are we leaving?" I asked quickly. Julian gave me a cocky look from the other side of the room.

"Yes, we're leaving. Let's go!" Ava said, exasperated.

My friends are making me leave. My phone number is (123) 456-7890. Text me later. Bye, Julian!!

I'll text you. Can I call you Cass? He responded.

Of course!! I said.

Bye, then!! He said, and with that, Ava and Ariella pulled me and Jules out of the coffee shop.

"Can we all get together tomorrow after class? We can listen to musicals and eat food." Ariella suggested.

"Singing and eating food is what I do best, so sure!" I answered.

"Do you want to come to our place?" Jules asked. "I mean, if that's okay with you, Cass."

"Yeah, I'm fine with that! I'll grab coffees with Jules after class for us. Ariella, you're on snacks. Ava, bring movies, you have all the good ones," I said as I thought of things on the spot.

"Okay, then it's set! Bye, guys!!" Ava said as she and Ariella walked off.

"Bye!" Jules said as the door to their dorm slammed shut.

"We need to talk, we both know it. But let's wait to get back to the room." I said, and gave Jules a hug as we walked.

Hey, guys. Long time no update. Sorry!! Anyhoo.... that was just a filler chapter kind of. You met a new character, and hopefully learned some things. Next chapter is going to be kind of the same. But the chapter after that I'm excited to write. Idk why all the sudden they're in college, but sure, they're in college at age 14-15. But this is in the future, so it doesn't matter. Bye!!
