Jace

I nod, "At least you have some idea."

Rayah

I nod, looking at him. "Just tell me. You have to have some idea."

Jace

I shrug, "I don't know. I've never thought about it. Life's been a little...too hectic to give me time to think about futures."

Rayah

I shrug and look back at the floor, sighing. "Oh. You should probrably start thinking about that..."

Jace

I shrug and look down at the floor, "Yeah, I know."

Rayah

I look at him. "You're sixteen right?"

Jace

I nod and look up at her, "Yeah. My birthday was last week."

Rayah

I nod, "Oh Happy late birthday then," I flash a smile.

Jace

I flash a smile at her, "Thank you."

Rayah

I nod and look back at the floor. "I'm turning sixteen in two weeks," I say, "Don't know what I'm doing for it though. Probrably just gonna sit at home and eaat popcorn all day while watching a romantic movie," I chuckle. "I've always wanted to do that."

Jace

I flash a smile and look at her, "Happy early birthday. And that does sound nice."

Rayah

I flash a smile, looking back at him. "Yeah, Thanks. And it's nice, but not when you're alone. I'm probrably going to invite a guy friend over or something. Since it's a romantic mvoie, I think it would be nice to think of it as a movie date, you know?" I look back at the floor.

Jace

I nod, "Yeah, I guess. It sucks being alone on a birthday anyway."

Rayah

I nod. "It does," I check the time on my phone before setting it back on the table.

Jace

Wow. Every conversation we have seems to die instantly.

I sigh and look down again.
