Nina smiled as Ali gave her a hug and she hugged back. She knew from the schedule that Ali was working today, along with Petyr. [color=d86c00]"Hey girl, ready for work?"[/color] 

Alicia smiled when Nina hugged her back and pulled up a chair next to the two of them, since she had a few minutes before her shift and tied her hair into a pony tail. [color=cyan]"Hi Nina, I am enjoying your evening off I assume?"[/color]

[color=d86c00]"Yup, lucky me. I got today and tomorrow off, but I think I'm working double shifts this weekend to make up for it. So how was school? I hear some things got very interesting earlier today."[/color] Nina looked at Ali, one of her other good friends, curiously. 

[color=cyan]"Yeah today was kind of pretty weird, I actually skipped classes for the day and hung out with Jade this morning, and then with Kat before I came over here."[/color] Alicia said and stretched slightly looking over towards her friend. [color=cyan]"How has your day been?"[/color]

[color=d86c00]"I bet your mom is pissed... but sounds like fun. I cut as well... spent the day at the Wilcox Lodge helping out. I'm sure Petyr will wanna talk about it when he gets here."[/color] Nina let out a small sigh and leaned back into her chair and sipped her drink.

Alicia shrugged slightly. [color=cyan]"Eh I do it from time to time, but its not an every day thing. And a little scolding doesnt really hurt me to much my mom gets over it pretty quick."[/color]

Ashton had been sitting idly by,after he had returned Alicia's wave, letting the two girls have their conversation. He had a slight smile upon his face as he silently listened to the conversation going on around him. With all of the crazy stuff going on and the memorial tomorrow, it was nice to be part of something normal, standard and familiar.  His mind began to drift away in thought as he started to redirect his gaze elsewhere. That was when the bell attached to the cafe door jingled. When he turned his head to look over there, his eyes widened when he saw the person who just walked in.

[color=32CD32][b]"Jade!"[/b][/color] He called out with a grin and a lazy wave. [color=32CD32][b]"Wasn't expecting to see you here."[/b][/color]

Not even ten seconds after walking into Simonè's Coffee, Jade seemed to be called over. She looked over to see who it was and wouldn't ya know it, it was that fine piece of ass, Ashton Bryant. Jade started to walk over to the table that he was sitting at,[color=e62020]"hey good looking, what's happening?"[/color] Jade asked him, smiling. Ashton just gave her a wink in response.

Alicia turned her head to hear the door to Simone's Cafe and saw that it was Jade, which she hadnt seen since the Astronomy Club meeting and Jade ending up snapping at her and then storming off. Alicia smiled slightly towards Jade and waved towards her best friend. "Hey Jade, is everything alright?" She asked turning to face her friend.

[color=e62020]"Actually, I need to talk to y-"[/color] Before Jade could finish, she noticed Nina. Almost instantaneously, Jade's nostrils flared.

Nina looked at Jade and sighed internally. She was already mentally prepairing herself for the death glare she was about to recieve from Jade. However, that didn't mean she had to be rude. [color=d86c00]"Hello Jade."[/color]

[color=e62020]"Nina.."[/color] Jade said, giving her a light nod. Jade was trying to withhold her strong dislike for that woman. She had to shake her head to focus on the real reason why she showed up at Simonè's. [color=e62020]"Alicia, you got a minute? I have to talk to you."[/color] Jade asked Alicia.

Ashton had recalled Jade's breakdown during the astronomy meeting. He also was aware of the tension between Nina and Jade. He quickly turned to Nina. [color=32CD32][b]"Hey Nina, I believe that I was promised hot chocolate...?"[/b][/color] He drawled with a grin. [color=32CD32][b]"You know how picky I am with it, frankly you're the only one who can get it right."[/b][/color]

Nina chuckled a bit. [color=d86c00]"Only for you Ash. I'll be right back then."[/color] Nina got up and headed behind the counter and whispered something to another coworker who let Nina take over the espresso machine. 

The bells jingled again as Katalina walked into Simone's, having made psudo plans to show up while Ali was working. She waved over at her friend before noticing that Ash and Jade were there also. She paused and then walked over and smiled. [color=00b3b3]"'Sup everyone!"[/color]

When the bell from Simonè's ring, Jade saw Katalina enter the cafè. Though Jade didn't have [i]that[/i] much of a problem with her, she was always hanging around Alicia. For that reason, Jade found herself trying to avoid Kata as much as possible, or at the very least, getting Alicia's attention as much as she could. Still, for the sake of not alerting Alicia because Jade really did want to talk to her, she would fake a friendly smile for now.

 And Jade did just that. She turned her head, waved to Katalina slightly, and smiled, saying nothing.

Alicia looked between Nina and Jade, she could easily feel the tension between the two of them even noticing Jade's nostrils flared slightly at the sight of Nina. She quickly turned to look at Jade, and had a feeling what Jade wanted to talk about and nodded towards her. [color=cyan]"Sure thing Jade."[/color] Alicia said as she stood up from her seat looking at Ashton. [color=cyan]"So you think my brewing sucks huh? I'm really hurt now[/color] Alicia said jokingly and gently patted Ash on the back, just then Alicia heard the door opening and saw that it was Kat coming in.

[color=cyan]"Hey there lovely lady!"[/color] Alicia said with a smile and quickly hugged Kat, and noticed Jade there for a moment. "I'll be back in a minute or two Kat, I need to talk to Jade for a second privately." Kata nodded in response.    Alicia then headed over towards the restrooms and turned to face Jade. [color=cyan]"So, whats up?"[/color]

[color=e62020]"I'm just going to be frank about this,"[/color] Jade said, taking in a somewhat deep breath, [color=e62020]"I was a total bitch to you earlier. I started to remember how everything used to be before Jason and I took a trip to splitsville and that sudden suggestion from Moon about us [i]sticking together[/i] just put the icing on a really shitty cake "[/color] Jade continued, [color=e62020]"Fact is, it took me a wild conversation with the most unlikely of sources to realize that I shouldn't have taken my anger out on you."[/color] Jade said to Alicia, [color=e62020]"You're pretty much one of the few people who actually don't shit on me every chance they get, so I'm sorry for being a total bitch."[/color] Jade finished, apologizing to Alicia.

Alicia leaned herself up against the wall crossing her arms over her chest looking straight into Jade's eyes, and could tell she was being honest and smiled and shook her head. [color=cyan]"You know you dont have to apologize for that, I've never dated so I wouldnt know the feeling."[/color] Alicia said running a hand through her hair and smiled slightly. [color=cyan]"I will always have your back no matter what Jade. But I'm glad you apologized anyway."[/color]Alicia said extending her hand towards Jade.

Smiling softly at Alicia, Jade hugged her for a few seconds. After the hug broke, Jade looked over towards the table briefly, specifically at Katalina, and then back to Alicia [color=e62020]"You can't tell me you haven't dated when you have that redhead over there fawning over you like some horny rabbit."[/color] She said with a laugh.

Alicia smiled and returned the hug and sighed slightly she was glad that they fixed things up quickly, and then broke the hug she turned to look over at Kat over at the table and instantly turned red at Jade's comment. "Shut up Jade, I don't know if she likes me in that way." Alicia said defensivly.

[color=e62020]"Clueless as always."[/color] Jade laughed, [color=e62020]"listen, I'm kind of a pro at spotting these things."[/color] Jade said smugly, [color=e62020]"she wants you. She wouldn't be here at your workplace if she didn't. Hell, I'm sure the only reason that pale-as-fuck redhead was at the Astronomy Club meeting was because you were going."[/color] Jade said.

Alicia rubbed the back of her neck awkwardly still eyeing Kat some more and then looked over towards Jade. [color=cyan]"Thanks for the info relationship guru."[/color] Alicia said with a slight smile and gave Jade another quick hug. [color=cyan]"Was there anything else on your mind?"[/color] Alicia asked.

[color=e62020]"Sure thing!"[/color] Jade said, smiling. 

On the note of anything else, Jade just remembered the other reason why she needed to talk to Alicia. [color=e62020]"Oh yeah, I almost forgot!"[/color] Jade said, [color=e62020]"You know that loner kid, Grant Wells, right?"[/color] She asked Alicia.

Alicia looked at Jade for a moment as she asked her about Grant and nodded. [color=cyan]"Yeah we sometimes hang out. but not that often what about him,? Did you want to get into his pants or something?"[/color]

[color=e62020]"No.."[/color] Jade said, looking at Alicia with a long, slightly annoyed expression. [color=e62020]"I mean, yeah he's pretty hot if you like that whole shy, nerdy, writer look,"[/color] Jade admitted, [color=e62020]"but that's not why I asked if you knew him."[/color] Jade said, [color=e62020]"it seems that he may be like us, but more specifically, [u]you[/u]."[/color] Jade told her, putting emphasis on Alicia.

[color=cyan]"I'm only kidding Jade, no need to get your panties up in a bunch."[/color] Alicia laughed and then stopped for a moment when Jade mentioned he was like them as well, but more like her and was slightly interested. [color=cyan]"How so, is he some sort of metal bender like me?"[/color] Alicia asked.

[color=e62020]"I'm really don't know if it's with metal, but —"[/color] Jade paused, scratching her cheek, [color=e62020]"— but I was kind of teasing the poor kid about being all quiet and eating alone, and he might've gotten angry.[/color] Jade shamefully admitted to Alicia. [color=e62020]"And that's when the cup I was holding started to move towards him."[/color] Jade told Alicia, [color=e62020]"It brought me to when that coke can of yours was moved."[/color] Jade said, a look of uncertainty about what Grant has. [color=e62020]"So, I don't know if it's exactly like your Toph-ripoff ability or if it's something different entirely, but I already kind of told him you would meet with us later on today. "[/color] Jade told Alicia, a delayed, almost nervous laugh following.

[color=cyan]"Well I honestly have used mine all that much, but the three of us can meet up at my place or something later tonight. I get off around nine tonight."[/color] Alicia said and looked down at her phone and hadnt realized that she was past her time to clock in. [color=cyan]"I gotta go and clock in."[/color] Alicia said and gave Jade another quick hug and smiled. [color=cyan]"I'll see you two later on tonight."[/color] Alicia said and headed over towards the registers.

[color=e62020]"Yeah, see ya tonight,"[/color]  Jade said, walking off away from the restrooms, to where Ash and Kat were sitting. She gave them something akin to a smile and nod and she left, off to god-knows where.

She quickly clocked in and looked over towards Nina, Kat and Ash still sitting there. [color=cyan]"Sorry about that, anything I can get you Kat and Nina?"[/color] Alicia asked and looked over towards Nina as well.

While Jade and Alicia had been talking, Nina came back with the cup of hot cocoa, and handed it to Ash. [color=d86c00]"There you go Ash, one cocoa, as promised."[/color] Ash accepted the cocoa with a grateful nod and smile. When Alicia returned she smiled. [color=d86c00]"I'm good thanks... I'm mostly just waiting for Petyr at this point."[/color]

[color=00b3b3]"I will take whatever you whip up for me lovely lady, you know what I like."[/color] Kata said with a wink and giggled a bit. She nodded back to Jade as she left and looked at Alicia.  [color=00b3b3]"Everything okay with you two now?"[/color]

[color=cyan]"How is Petyr doing by the way? I havent seen him all day"[/color] Alicia asked and smiled towards Kat as she wrote down the order. [color=cyan]"One caramel latte for the lovely redhead."[/color] Alicia nodded towards Kat. [color=cyan]"Yeah Jade and I are both good now, she just wanted to apologize for earlier."[/color]

[color=00b3b3]"I'm glad you two made up. And thanks sweetie."[/color] Kata smiled at Alicia, blushing a bit at her comment.

Alicia nodded towards Kat and smiled as she turned to head off towards the front to make Kat's caramel latte.

[color=d86c00]"I don't know. I haven't seen him either. I suspect he might be worried/ miffed at me because I did ditch today."[/color] Nina relaxed a bit more in her armchair. [color=d86c00]"I figured I'll chill here till he comes in and then we could talke."[/color]

[color=32CD32][b]"It's unlike you to ditch Nina,"[/b][/color] Ash commented as he took a sip of his signature hot cocoa drink.  [color=32CD32][b]"And wow, sparks are flying between you guys Kata, Alicia. Do I need to leave so you guys can sort that sexual tension out?"[/b][/color] Ash chuckled with a devious grin, observing the slight blushes and little signs of flitation flitting back and forth between the two.

Kata blushed and looked at Ash. [color=00b3b3]"You don't have to leave unless you want to... but I think I messed it up earlier. I should have said something when we were at my house."[/color] 

Nina looked over at Ash. [color=d86c00]"I know, but I already explained to you what happened Ash. But yeah Kata, when did that start happening?"[/color] Nina leaned in a bit.

[color=00b3b3]"I uh... oh Nina, since you did cut, did you need the assignments for class?"[/color] Kata looked more than happy to change the subject. Nina shook her head.

[color=d86c00]"I'll get it from Petyr, I'm sure."[/color]

Alicia came back holding Kat's caramel latte in her hand and handed it over towards her friend and smiled at her. [color=cyan]"One caramel latte."[/color] Alicia said looking towards the three of them. [color=cyan]"What were the three of you guys talking about?"[/color] Alicia asked.

Kata blushed. [color=00b3b3]"Uh I was asking Nina if she needed the assignments from today, but she declined. Thanks for the drink Ali, you're the best."[/color] She smiled up at her friend as she took the drink. Nina rolled her eyes. 

[color=d86c00]"I'm gonna get a head start on my reading. If you need me, just tap my shoulder."[/color] Nina pulled out a small book for English class and started reading it.

Alicia noticed Kat blushing slightly and smiled slightly then looked over towards Nina and nodded. [color=cyan]"Alright then, and if you need anything the two of you just yell out for me."[/color] Alicia said and gave Kat a gentle pat on the shoulder, before walking off to take orders from other cutomers.
