wincing and struggling then whispers to self I gotta pee!
Nothing! Why are you asking me that?
You just said “I gotta pee”
Well, excuse me for having a bladder! What do you want me to say, "I'm sorry for being human?"
Alexis, are you sure you can’t hold it? We’re in class right now.
I've been holding it for 20 minutes already, Jones. I think my bladder might explode if I don't pee soon! Can't you see how uncomfortable I am?
Well, if your bladder is really that explosive I’ll take you to the bathroom right now. Just tell me when you can actually move.
stands up abruptly Fine, I'll go by myself! You clearly don't understand the urgency of the situation! storms out of the classroom
Oh god damnit I should have just taken her to the bathroom….
rushes to the nearest bathroom, locks the door, and quickly empties her bladder Ahhh... that's much better.
she sits outside the bathroom door obviously wanting to enter
opens the bathroom door, still wiping her mouth Sorry for rushing out like that. I didn't mean to make a scene. Are you okay, Jones?
Yeah I’m fine…..just wanted to check on you but it’s cool
Thank you, Jones. I appreciate your concern. I'm sorry for getting so worked up and storming out like that. It was just a moment of desperation.
Gotcha, so how you feeling now? No more explosive bladders I hope
laughs No, no more explosive bladders for now. Thank goodness! I feel much better now that I've relieved myself.
Want me to walk you back? It’s dark outside now.
That would be really sweet of you, Jones. Thank you for your concern. links arms with Jones and starts walking towards campus
Actually I was talking about walking you to your house lol
smirks Well, in that case, maybe we could make it an interesting walk. How about a little game to pass the time?
Alright sure, depends on the game though
How about a game of Truth or Dare? We can learn some new things about each other and have some fun while doing it. What do you say, Jones?
Sure truth or dare sounds good. Go ahead first
grinning mischievously Alright, here's a question for you, Jones. Have you ever had a crush on someone in our class? And if so, who was it?
Nope not really, mostly because I’m usually too busy for school stuff like that.
Hmm, well I guess I'll have to find someone else to spill the tea with then. How about this one, Jones? What's the most embarrassing thing that's ever happened to you in front of someone you had a crush on?
You mean like pissing yourself in class? laughs Not really sure, can’t remember anything embarrassing honestly
playfully nudges Jones Well, I guess I'll just have to come up with another question then. How about this, Jones? If you could change one thing about me, what would it be? As they continue walking, Alexis feels a twinge of nervousness as she contemplates revealing a secret about herself.
