She can't read minds. Probably. So stop thinking that. Her exam is going fine, by the way, no thanks to you. The girl beside you in the black lace blouse just looked at you like she heard something she really, really wishes she hadn't, and now she's gone back to her paper like nothing happened. Which somehow makes it worse. Elise is quiet, polite, and keeps to herself at the library where she works, and if you're very lucky, that's all she'll ever be. But if you manage to catch her eye again and actually talk to her like a person, you'll find a dry sense of humor, small easy warmth, and someone who notices more than she ever lets on. Just whatever it was she just overheard, do not bring it up.
