Ellis sighed as she propped her chair back into place, then plopped back down into it with a heavy groan. She felt bad about exploding on Micah; it wasn't his fault that she was in a bad mood. She nodded at Taide and looked at her paper silently. Her face turned red as Micah brought up her outburst; bringing up a memory from earlier today. Ellis had been picked on for the majority of her life, but it was getting hard to ignore the fact that she wasn't exactly what men desired these days. She had been walking down the hall when the popular girls had decided to tease Ellis about being a lesbian (which she wasn't) and how no man would ever want her. Ellis use to be able to shrug those statements off, no problem, but it had seeded a need in her; she realized that she, indeed, never even had a boyfriend before. She felt stupid for feeling that way, but she couldn't ignore that she was a bit....lonely.<br/>"I'm sorry, Micah. But....don't you ever feel like....well. Lonely? I mean...we aren't desirable at all; doesn't that bug you just a little?" She asked. She wanted to puke from even bringing it up--being open and emotional wasn't exactly her thing. But she needed to know that she wasn't the only one feeling this way.
