Ashley Raven
Despite all her efforts to appear to be focused on her game, she couldn't help but remain fixated on the room around her, especially now that she was actually sitting at the table next to some upperclassmen. Also, the game she was playing was some really stupid game on a game-boy color that she hadn't touched in years, and was the only console she was able to dig out of her still unpacked car. Intentionally keeping her head down, she fixated her eye's through her hair, watching all that went on around her. Some guy walked by, and Cara seemed interested in his noticing her for some reason, and stared in his direction for a suspiciously long amount of time.
Ashley sighed. She knew she would have to speak up and initiate a conversation with this future roommate of hers. She finally decided to say something when Cara suddenly got up and went to the bathroom, leaving Ashley awkwardly alone with this other girl at the table. Ashley slouched further in her seat and pretended not to have noticed anything.
Finally, Cara emerged from the bathroom, looking at Ashley before sitting down. Now she had to say something. Without pausing her game or even getting the nerve to look up, Ashley spoke, in a nervous half-whisper.
"Who was that guy? You know him or something?"
Immediately she regretted the statement, not only was that a completely awkward way to start a conversation, but it also revealed that she had, in fact, been watching Cara the entire time. She turned her attention back on her video game, kind of hoping Cara hadn't heard her over all the noise in the room.
