True entered her office, a beautiful bouquet in her hands. She saw Ryan in his usual slouching spot by her design table and smiled even brighter. "Hey Ryan!"

Ryan jumped and dropped his feet off the design table, walking over to her computer and leaning over the monitor. "Who's the flowers from?"

"Oscar says their from the magazine for apologizing for Amanda this morning. Their beautiful, aren't they?" True blushed, fluffing the lilacs and daisies in their vase.

"Did I hear somebody say they got flowers for my interview?" Amanda poked her head in, striding to True's desk at superhuman speed. True said nothing, only huffed and almost chopped the head off a tulip.

"That's funny. I thought it was True's interview that you screwed up." Ryan said, sniffing at the flowers.

Amanda looked at the boy, raising an eyebrow. "You know, you haven't hit on me in quite a long time." She looked him up and down as he looked at her with fear. "What's up?"

"Up? Why would anything be up? Nothing's up. Why would anything be up?" He laughed nervously before obviously indulging in the flowers.

"Don't pick on him just because he's right, Amanda." True short of snapped, not bothering with her friend's strange behavior. She smiled again and grabbed the flowers. "I'll go get these guys some water." And she left the room, purposely bumping elbows with Amanda.

Amanda sneered at the girl before she looked back at Ryan. "Seriously, what's wrong with you?"

"Nothing, nothing's wrong with me." Ryan smiled crooked, hands slowly clenching away the paint of True's desk.

"Uh-huh, then why are you sweating like a pig?"

Glass shattered and the two hurried over to the break-room. True was frozen, her vase and flowers shattered at her feet and arms locked as if she was holding a box.

In front of her, Ryan, and Amanda, Lulu was pressed against Jimmy with her arms around his neck and his arms around her waist. Both looked at True with shock before jumping apart in guilt.

"LU!" Ryan screeched, pushing past True.

"Ryan...I..." The speech she had thought up flew from Lulu's mind as she looked at his hurt filled eyes.

"How could you do this to me?!" Ryan snapped, grabbing her arms roughly.

Lulu's mouth bobbed like a goldfish in the air, nothing coming out but inaudible sounds.

Ryan's hurt turned to glaring and he shoved her at Jimmy, who caught her only so she wouldn't stumble, letting her go rightly after. "I'm outta here." He murmured, shoving past True and Amanda to the elevator.

"Ryan!" Lulu yelled, trying to stop him. But the elevator doors had already closed. She leaned against the threshold of the break-room.

True looked from her best friend to Jimmy, as did said boy. Finding he had nothing to say, Jimmy hurried out back to the mail-room.

Amanda chuckled in her little way. "Well, I guess this day went splendid." She laughed and walked back to her office.

Lulu and True exchanged a look before Lulu slid down to the floor and held her head in her hands.
