One minute I was sitting with Ace and assuring him that I loved him more than Dustin Hoffman and the next I was rushing to biology lab. Between all the homework and nights with little sleep I really needed a break and Lucy offered the perfect one. "I know it's a school night and the middle of the week, but I have a test in my five o'clock class, so I'll get out early if you and Ace want to grab dinner with me and Riley." I'd hung out with Riley and Lucy plenty of times since they were practically inseparable, but never with Ace along. Maybe we could use a double date with a set of humans. "Sure, why not?" I looked up from the book I was reading for mythology. "Cool." Lucy slung her book bag over her shoulder. "How about I text you when we get out of class and we meet you at that sushi place downtown?" "Sound good to me, and if Ace is busy, then I will definitely be there anyway." "Sweet." She smiled and headed out the door. *** "I still don't understand what sushi is and how your roommate would want to eat it if she doesn't eat meat, or dairy, or anything that is the best of all the food groups." Ace and I walked through campus, swinging our intertwined hands back and forth.
