R&R

Jade typed furiously at her keyboard, trying desperately to get everything in her head onto the screen that she didn't look up at once since she started. When she finished, it was as if she were released from a trance, and she leaned back in her chair, satisfied.
And then, she looked up.
A girl, a beautiful girl, who had clearly been staring was sitting at the next booth with some friends. She blended back into her groups conversation and now it was her turn to stare. Her most notable feature, she thought, was her hair. A gorgeous brown, long and wavy. But she found herself mistaken when the girl looked her way again. Warm brown eyes peeked from behind her bangs, and revealed themselves when she tucked her hair behind her ear and waved shyly. 'Shit' she thought. 'Caught'. And before she could wave back, a blush covered the tan girls cheeks and she was left motionless. This just made her smile grow as she waved more confidently and her friends took notice of their exchange.
Finally, Jade waved back. If she remembered how to smile she'd have done that too. The girls friends made a few mocking gestures and playfully pushed her out of the booth as she stood up. Jades eyes never left her as she approached. "Hi" she said, voice light and friendly. "Can I sit?" And Jade wants to listen but she hasn't mapped every detail of this girls face yet, so the words just don't register. The girls smile falters and her brain kick starts at the expression. "Yeah! Yeah. Sorry um, yeah." She rants, shaking her head clear and closing her laptop. The girl sat down and extended a hand accompanied by a warm smile. "Tori" She shook her hand dumbly. 'Soft skin' she thought, 'Tori'. Tori looked at her expectantly, her smile sloping to the side. Shit, she thought. "Jade" A puzzled look captured her features, then the smile was back.
"You don't look like a Jade" She thought about it. Her hair is black and flows to the end of her biceps, which were toned and very visible in the tank top she wore. Her jeans were the darkest clean ones she could find that day, and clean was a relative term. Tori took her silence as offense. "Not that I don't like it! I mean its beautiful!" The implications widened her eyes. "Not that you're not too, I mean-" she appraised Jade with her eyes "just not a Jade. It sounds like a princess or something and you look more like the knight." A blush covered her cheeks and her face fell in her hands for a moment before she started speaking again "Not that-" Jades laugh cut her off. "I'm sorry, I do that, but feel free to cut me off anytime." Jades voice, always sounding like it was cracking like she spoke with two voices, one soft and low and the other just and octave higher, quietly escaped from the small smile on her face "No no, I like it." Tori raised and eyebrow in question. Jade shrugged "Not much of a talker." "Jade, we're going to get along wonderfully."
...
They talk for a while. Or really, Tori talks and reminds herself to ask a question every few monologues. "...and she just drops it!" Jade gives a quiet laugh
"So where are you from?"
"Right here"
"Really?!" She nods.
"New York City?!" She nods somehow even more unenthusiastically.
"That's insane!" She nods again. Toris smile turns sly. "So i bet you know this place pretty well by now, huh?" She nods again and Tori laughs. "Okay, well, you've gotta show me something only a true New Yorker would know about" Jade thinks for a moment, then says "Okay" Tori clasps her hands together "Brilliant. I can't wait, Saturday?" Jade thinks, then nods. "Great" she says, pulling her hands apart with her fingers still interlaced and rests her chin on them. The corners of her mouth lift into a smile that sends Jades heartbeats straight to her ears, and she offers a toothy grin in response. And after a bit of mutual staring, the moment is broken by a hand on Tori shoulder.
A young African American boy with a cocky smile has made his way from Toris table of friends. "Sorry to break your staring contest but uh" he pauses and swings his head around to make eye contact with her "time to go." He said with a small laugh. Tori laughed with him and said "Damn, I had her on the ropes." She unfolded her hands and stood up. "Wait for the rematch" Her smile faltered at the sound of Jades voice, then was renewed with vigor as she laughed.
As the two turned to join their friends and leave, a girl from their group noticed and walked up to Tori and said something quietly that Jade was only able to her the end of. "- ber you idiot" Tori gasped and turned . "Your number" she said pointing a small pair of finger guns. Jade nodded in understanding and looked around her booth for something to fulfill the request. Tori chuckled and handed her her phone. She typed as fast as she did on her computer and handed it back.
