    Lila chuckled and sat back in her chair the right way. "Well maybe but not all of us can be born little geniuses." Lila said and smirked. She was glad to hear that he had missed her too. The teacher resumed class and this time Lila relaxed a little. The class ended and it was time for round two in another class. Lila knew Mattie would excell in this class. It was English and he could speak poetry and write words that charmed the paper it was written on. Lila was thinking he would make a great writer, or even an English teacher but Mattie would be happier to just sell the books. They walked together and she hummed softly. She stopped and looked down at the map. "Have you ever thought of becoming a writer? You could write beautiful books." Lila said. "Awha!" She exclaimed when she found the class on the map and started to lead them that way.

    Mattie looked at her, "you know I don't want fame," he said softly. He walked with her, "besides my books would be too complex for these simple minds, you know that," he added. He had actually thought about writing, but he didn't really have the patience for publishers, he wondered if he could publish his own book though

    Lila chuckled. "I'm just saying look into it more. Besides there are a few stellar people out there like me." she said and winked at him. They walked into the class and she followed him to a seat. Lila grinned. "I know you could do anything you wanted to. Even if you got a pen name." she hinted knowing there were things he hadn't looked into with writing yet.

    Mattie smiled softly, "I know Lila, but you know I don't really care much for thinking about the future," he said softly. He sat next to her and lifted her feet into his lap, and rubbed them lightly

    Lila smiled. "I know that is what you have me for." She said and groaned as he slipped her shoe off and rubbed her foot. "Mattie you were will spoil me." She a used loving how sweet and thoughtful he was to her.

    Mattie smiled and continued to rub her feet. "Did you meet any cute guys over summer?" he asked lightly, wanting to change the subject. He was sure she would have, she had always been better with people than him

    Lila smiled. "A few but I was more focused on work then dating any hot foreign guys." She said and let her head fall back. The teacher walked in and Lila sighed. She pulled her feet away and kissed his cheek. "Thanks." She whispered and then it was back to focusing on school work.

    Mattie smiled and turned his attention to the teacher, as the teacher began his lecture again. Mattie wrote a few things down on his book, just things he wanted to look up, and read up on. This was how he liked to study things, by expanding out into other areas to grow his knowledge of the world rather than focusing just on one subject at a time

    Lila looked over at his notes smiling and drew a happy face in the top corner of the page. She winked at him thinking it was great to be here with Mikkie. She had thought after high school that they would have had to separate but somehow they got lucky and she got a little longer with him. She had cried for a week before and a week after graduation just thinking about loosing Mikkie.

    (Woops its Mikkie)

    Mikkie looked around the class and watched as the students went about their usual rituals. Some were on laptops browsing the web, a couple were kissing fellow students, or flirting, One was asleep, two fighting. He wondered about people, and what they thought about. He sighed lightly and turned to Lila, he place his hand on her arm, "can we have lunch, just us, somewhere not crowded?" he asked softly

    [opps fixed it]
    Class let out and Lila was packing up for lunch. She looked at Mikkie and sat back down turning to him. "Yes. Of course." she said and took his hand patting it soothingly. Lila stood and took his hand. "I know a little place we can get food and they have a garden out back." she said and smiled at him. Lila was always concerned for him when he got like this. He seemed to get worse the longer he was away from her. She would have to slowly bring him back into comfort with people again. She kissed his cheek as they walked away from the college.

    Mikkie smiled softly, "thank you," he said relaxing a little bit. He packed up his things slowly, glad she understood. He put his bag on his back and looked at her, he was so lucky to have such a beautiful friend. He didn't say anymore, as they walked to the place she had spoken of

    Lila went to the counter ordering some food for herself and paid then waited for him. They waited for their food and then she took him out back to the garden. She sat down on the bench and opened her sandwich her backpack on the side. There was more to the garden but this was close and she was hungry. She had been so excited to see Mikkie this morning that she had forgotten to eat. "Mikkie... Are you okay?" she asked after she swallowed her first bite.

    Mikkie nodded lightly as he sat down next to her. She would be able to tell that he was lying though. He hadn't been around people for such a long time, ever since she'd gone away. He was struggling with the whole thing today.

    Lila frowned. "Mikkie don't lie to me you never lie to me. Come on talk to me..." she touched his hand. "It's just me." she said then set her lunch down and turned to him. She bit her lip and looked him over. "I know you were as upset as I was after graduation... but it all worked out okay? I'm here now."

    Mikkie nodded lightly, "I don't being around so many people, I don't know what I would do without you," he said softly. He looked at her, "I just want to curl up with a book.

    Lila nodded. She took his hand and held it in both of hers in her lap. "Mikkie we've talked about this before... there will always be people around and you don't want to work in a book store for the rest of your life. Maybe you want to own one or write books or something but you have to apply yourself... I only say this because you are better than most the people in the world and it's not right to keep you hidden when you have so much to offer." Lila said and bit her lip. "I know books are great but... we can't keep going to places were there is no one. You need to get comfortable in places like classrooms and cafeterias." she kissed his cheek her forehead resting on his. "What is it that makes you so uncomfortable with people?" Lila asked.

    Mikkie smiled lightly, "I just don't like people watching me, I don't know why," he said lightly. "I know I have lots to offer, but I just, ugh," he added. He smiled and took a bit of his sandwich

    Lila nodded. "What about me? Do you not like me watching you?" she asked. Lila took another bite of her food watching him. She always watched him. He was beautiful and interesting. Mikkie was the kind of guy a girl could really love and she wanted that for him but he had to get out there to get that.
