Eric walks into the school. He was feeling confident today, and felt certain he could make at least one friend here. Almost immediately he sees Koda and Moka, and freezes. He never felt right around girls. He didn't know if he should approach them, or go past them, or just turn around. He sighed, and slowly walked up to them. [i]If they notice me, I'll stop.[/i] This is what he told himself repeatedly as he approached. If they took no notice, he planned to just keep walking.
