Julianna snatched the little plastic fork from where he’d left it next to her provisional treats. She ignored the way he made fun of her pass code as she shoved noodles and vegetables into her mouth. “Yup,” she attempted over a mouthful of food, rice noodles tucked into her cheek like a chipmunk. She swallowed. Turning briefly to beam at him, too wide and too fake. Placating customer service smile, trying to ignore the pet names. “I’m proud of me too.” She pushed noodles around with the fork until she located another mushroom. She stabbed it with more force than absolutely necessary and popped it into her mouth. “You never would have figured it out.”.
She turned her back to him again when he started talking about ice cream. He thought he had her figured out. She frowned, slurping up the last of the noodles and setting the container back down. The water was next, she cracked it open and drank deeply from the bottle. She made a noise that was neither a yes or no to answer whether she liked cookie dough ice cream. With half the bottle gone she pulled it away from her mouth and sighed. She frowned, he thought he had a handle on her, but she had taken a psychology class too.
Wincing briefly as her other DVDs skidded across the desk, she watched as he walked towards her. Julianna glanced between the items he juggled and the hand he offered. She hesitated, twisting her hands around the water bottle. His joke made her laugh, it felt involuntary. A chirrup of a noise that she quickly silenced. He wasn’t allowed to be funny. He wasn’t allowed to entertain her, because he was ruining her life. “It’s not scary,” he replied, trying to sound exasperated with him. She tucked her feet beneath her in such a way that she wouldn’t flash him when he pulled up. She pressed a hand against his abdomen to keep from bumping into him; apparently one of her feet was asleep from sitting on the floor and she was unsteady. Pulling her hand away quickly, she let it fall to her side. Yup, he was still very... muscle-y.
Moving around him, she dumped herself on the couch. She picked one side, pressing herself up against the arm of it, feet on the cushions. The same hunched and protective posture she had initiated on the floor. Water bottle pressed between her knees. She surveyed him warily from her side of the couch.
“So, uhm, what’s your name?”

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
