Tessa smiled as Ruby revealed she was not good with trusting people, attempting to settle her emotions, "Don't worry, it's fine! Trust always takes some time." She said, confident in here statement, "I don't hope we become good friends, I KNOW we're gonna become good friends!" Tessa added, with a small chuckle, "You're a nice person, too, Ruby. I enjoy you being around." Tessa turned her gaze now towards the courtyard, idly watching as other students traversed the yard, and spoke amongst themselves, "It's nice to know I finally have a friend here, now." She added, speaking softly now. After a few moments of silent appreciation of their situation, Tessa once more spoke up, "Would you like to go grab something to eat, Rub?" Tessa asked, testing out her new nickname for Ruby.
