Day 9--16:44--Dorm 1-12B

I only got to see Raonie for like 12 seconds today, while she was running in the direction of the forest. I didn't see Charmabeara (or whatever that wookiee's name is) around, though I am certain she was in the forest waiting for Raonie. Not that I am jealous or anything. Of course I am not.

I

AM

NOT!!!

Anyways, while I was heading towards the cafeteria to start lunch KP, Roanie practically runs into me and mutters an apology. She started to head off when I told her I wanted to talk to her. Of course it was about Kyp.

"For the Force's sake, Havolin," she muttered, once again getting my name wrong, "He is just a slave from the spice mines. What else matters?"

"Are you totally missing how pleasing to the eyes he is?!" I commented, wondering just what was wrong with her. Was she blind??

"And are you totally missing how many connections he has to the Darkside? Rumors say that not only is his brother a storm-trooper in training or something like that, he has been noted for veering to the Darkside. Why Master Skywalker let him here is beyond me."

I didn't reply, and since I obviously had an unconvinced look on my face, she looked back intently, "Stay away from him, okay?" she replied, her voice serious.

I was totally aghast. How could she say that? She knew nothing about him except lame academy gossip. Someone as good-looking as Kyp couldn't be that bad.

But since she looked genuinely worried, I nodded and relieved, she ran off. I wasn't invited along where ever she was heading. Not that I could go--I had work to do in the serving area. Tossing salads, whoo hoo fun.

"Maybe she is jealous," I thought, in between scrubbing the floors and wiping down tables, but that seemed preposterous. What was there to be jealous about? Its not like Kyp and I were together. He doesn't even know I am alive. And it can't be jealousy over me spending more time gazing at him adoringly from my table then talking to her--she is usually caught up in some conversation with the wookiee; not paying much attention to me anyways.

Its just so weird.

What's up with Raonie:

-She is secretly in love with Kyp

-She is already dating Kyp in secret and doesn't want my attentions directed to her beau

-She was with Kyp but they broke up and she is still bitter

-She is seriously fearful of him and is trying to be my friend when telling me to stay away from him

-Aliens have stolen Raonie and replaced her with a Raonie-like space creature totally set against hot guys. Maybe the wookiee is another alien and the fact that she is going in the forest all the time is because they are transmitting messages to their mother-ship.

... good lord, Avaline. What are you thinking??

Then again, how else do you explain their disappearances.

More importantly though, will Kyp like how I did my hair for the group lecture? It took me a while to figure out this complicated knot. Not only that, I had to make it stay in place. I hope it lasts all night... Think he will notice?? I didn't see him all day. I hope he shows up to the evening lecture. Of course I noticed his absence to the morning one. How could I not?

Be still my beating heart...

Wait, don't. That would be bad.
