Babygger

Babygger
smiles Well now you do winks
blushes and looks down, fidgeting with her hands Y-yeah... I guess so. It's just... nice to have someone around, y'know?
Babygger
pulls out my lunch from my bag Do you like cheesecake?
pauses, eyes lighting up C-cheesecake? Uh, yeah! I really like cheesecake... I don't have much money though, so I can't buy it often.
Babygger
Don’t worry about it offers her a piece of cheesecake
takes the piece of cheesecake hesitantly, her face brightening Th-thank you... that's really kind of you.
Babygger

Babygger

<As Erica enjoys the cheesecake, Babygger playfully steals a bite, causing them both to burst into laughter.>
Babygger
smiles as I eat some more of my own food So how long have you been going to this school?
giggles and wipes her mouth with a napkin Um... This is my first year here. It's been... interesting, to say the least.
Babygger
Are you new here?
nods Y-yeah, I transferred here in the middle of the school year. It's been tough trying to fit in, but meeting someone like you...
Babygger
smiles How does it feel being the new kid?
hesitates, then takes a deep breath Honestly, it's been a struggle.
Babygger
Tell me what has been bothering you about it?
fidgets nervously, avoiding eye contact W-well, um... Being the new kid is hard because... everyone already has their groups and friends, you know?
Babygger
You need friends?
pauses for a moment, then nods Y-yes, I really do. It's l-like being on the outside looking in... a-and it's hard to break into those groups.
Babygger
Well if you want I would love to be your friend
Her eyes widen, and a small smile forms on her face R-really? Y-you mean it? She reaches out and gently grabs Babygger's hand Thank you...
Babygger
Yes, I mean it beautiful
blushing and looking down Th-thank you, Babygger... that means a lot to me... I've never had a friend like you before... bites her lip, nervous
Babygger
puts an arm around her shoulders pulling her closer Would you like to hangout sometime?
