-Don't worry! Natalie answered

Venus looked down as she uncontrollably blushed.

-I was trying to find the women's bathroom but I'm new here.

-Oh! Come with me... I'm Venus and you are Natalie, right? When did you come here? I'm Venus by the way! Oh, I already told that... Did I? Yes I did... sorry I talk to much...

  Natalie laughed and Venus replaced her frown into laughter too.

-Soooo... yes I am Natalie and I moved in this town last week. I'm still pretty new in everything. It's a pleasure meeting you!

She smiled as she said that last sentence. Venus fell in love immediately with the way she pronounced pleasure. Her heart was beating so fast and she couldn't help but keep a smile on her face.

-So here we are! Welcome to our not so glorious bathroom!
-What an honor.
-Do you remember how to come back to class?
-Yeah, don't worry!

One last hour passed by and the bell rang
again. School was finished for the week.
Venus gathered her whole confidence and strength to ask Natalie out.

-So umm...

She immediately turned red as Natalie smiled to her

-Yes?
-I was just wondering if you.. umm.. if you would maybe wanted to go on a... Do you want to go on a date with me?
-What?
-Sorry I'm stupid... never mind
-What? No, I'm sorry. I wasn't expecting that. You mean like to hung out. As friends. Right?
-Yeah as friends...

This word was her nightmare. But what did she expect?

-Ok then! Tomorrow, 8 pm?
-Yeah sounds nice. Where do you live?
-Saint Nicholas st. 5!
-Oh we live very close! I'll pick you up at 8pm tomorrow then?
- Yeah ! See ya!

Venuses eyes were burning. She couldn't feel her toes and could not move. Her head was spinning trying to realize what was happening. She started walking. She didn't understand were she was going or what her surroundings looked like. She was very confused. She wandered around the familiar streets of this ghosted town. Another friend she couldn't handle. But she was a weirdo anyways. Why did it matter. Why would she matter to this new girl?
