as if

Leia was in a tizzy. Ellie could tell she wasn't too fond of her talking to her other friends that she knew from the library or anywhere else.

"I need Eric to do something for me." She stopped Ellie in the hallway at school.

"What? I don't know if Eric has time to do anything?" They had their limit time which Ellie did her best to make the most of, lately.

"I have to see Dylan, like yesterday." Leia squinted.

"Well, I'm sorry, he can't." Ellie wasn't going to ask him. She couldn't go with him. He'd say, no. Absolutely. He'd made it pretty clear that he didn't want to have anything to do with Leia and Dylan. Besides gas wasn't exactly cheap. And she'd want him to drive her way out of the way just to see Dylan.

"Why not?"

"Because." Ellie sighed trying to think who else she might could ask. "How about Cory? I bet he could do it?"

"Really?"

"Yeah, he wouldn't mind. Just ask." Ellie shrugged. All he could do was to tell her, no. Maybe he would. Ellie was getting a bit perturbed with all of Leia's interruptions. And it didn't help when Nick showed up and all the girls she knew from the library were Nick's personal fan club.

He was grinning and they were all happy to see him. One more thing to put Leia off.

"Is she mad about something?" Nick asked Ellie.

"No, she's just being Leia." Ellie smiled.

  1. "just being leia" lol. many guys like leia-type girls... some not. in ellie's place i'd feel like i was taking advantage if i always had to ask my boyfriend if he'd drive my friend somewhere, so i can understand why she said no.

  2. Good for ellie-she shouldn't be pressured by leia to do things her and Eric don't want to be involved in.
