Excert from Trilogy in Progress Book One!!

“Ahh,” she sighed, “You’re a life saver.”
“And you’re the only person I know of who can enjoy coffee at four o’clock in the afternoon, you know that?” she smiled and focused back to the door.

“Seems like someone’s chasing you,” Annie said and narrowed her eyes suspiciously.

“Oh, someone is,” the girl laughed mischievously and pointed to the tray, “I didn’t pay for those.”

Annie stopped drinking her coffee, “Then who did?”

“Would you relax, Jake did, and I stole it from him.”

“Oh,” Annie’s shoulders hunched down as she relaxed. They stole the boys’ coffee all the time. It wasn’t like Jake could do anything about it. In fact, Annie had a feeling he didn’t want to do anything about it, he liked the attention girls gave him. “But you know, Oak, he’s on to you, and I feel like he’s going to get his revenge someday.”

Oakley looked at her amusingly, “What’s he going to do, tell on me? I told you, you need to relax.”

“Well, guess the coffee’s not working then.”

Oakley Harbour was Annie’s best friend and they’ve known each other since they were five. Oakley actually helped Annie dye her hair that one time. The two have always done everything together, and they shared their secrets to no one but each other, like the fact that they both had naturally purple eyes. The others all think that they wear the same contacts, and never really asked about it in fine detail. The girls built up a friendship after they found out that fact about each other.

“Oh, yeah, how’s it going with the studying?” Oakley averted her attention to Annie.

“Mmm…” Annie sipped her coffee and nodded sheepishly.

“No, seriously,” Oakley hounded.

Annie moved the cup away from her mouth and gulped down the previous amount she had sucked into her mouth slowly, to buy time so she can think of a plausible answer. “Good.” You call that a plausible answer, Annie cursed herself.
