Snippet #2135182

Oden looked around the table at his friends and smiled. Though they didn't know what he was truly thinking, didn't know the real him, he was sure they would stick by him when he told them of his agenda. They had been friends as long as he could remember, ever since they started school. Oden was the oldest, at 21, but that didn't stop them being friends. In some cases, he was even hoping for more. He had always had a bit of a thing for Minji, one of his female friends. She seemed the most like him, and he thought she was pretty.

"So guys... what are we going to do?" He asked the others. There were four of them all together.

Lotus wasn't listening as Oden spoke. Her mind was elsewhere at the moment, as it often was these days. After a moment of silence it finally registered what Oden has asked. "Hmm? Well i guess we all have to find work or something." She shrugged. "I wouldn't mind being an Auror." She turned her warm green eyes on the others, mainly Alex. "What about you? What do you want to do? We've been out of school for 2 years, some of us longer." She shot a look at Oden who shrugged.

Lotus's eyes went back to Alex and she smiled slightly. She had been pining after him since they were 15,but she was certain he didn't notice her, at least not that way. She let out a small sigh before looking at the other two. "You guys? Know what you want to do?" She asked.
