Welcome back, everyone. Enjoy and review.

Abby

Continuing his way around town, Lance found himself suddenly stopped by a traffic light. He had had nothing but good timing so far, why now? Why was he even thinking that way? It was not like he had to be anywhere.

Regardless if he had anywhere to be or not, Lance stood at the crosswalk with his arms crossed. As he waited for the light to change so he could cross, a name began to run through Lance's head: Nate… Nate what? He had no idea all he knew was that Nate and Rikki had dated and then he cheated on her with someone. He had apparently met this guy, but he was so non-descript Lance could not even remember what he looked like.

What else was he like? Was he violent? Jealously so? Lance could only wonder why he was even wondering this.

"Hiya, Lance!"

Shaking his head, Lance looked to his right to see a bespectacled girl in front of him. "D-Do I know you?"

"Sorry, you must not see too well without your glasses. I am Abby, we are in the same history class."

Lance did not really remember her, but instead he commented: "I don't wear glasses."

"Then why are your eyes like that?" Abby asked, genuinely curious.

"I have close-fitting lids, my dad has them too." Lance answered as the light changed and they were allowed to cross. "I am sorry, Abby, but I don't really remember you."

"Do not worry about it. It is your first day at Dolphin City High." Abby said with a smile. "Speaking of which, would you be interested in joining the school's news team?"
