Mikayla smiled at Aerius when she saw him. They had been friends a long time. They had survived teenage life in a boring small town together. Not that she realized he had a crush on her. He never said anything about it and Mikayla wasn't the type of girl who just assumed everyone would be madly in love with her. She certainly knew the world didn't revolve around her and wasn't arrogant enough to think that she was the most gorgeous girl in the world. Aiden thought she was pretty. She had blonde hair that was shoulder length, that she  often tied back a lot in a ponytail and blue eyes. She also wore small black framed glasses, she couldn't see shit in a distance without them on.<br/><br/>The last year it had been different between them. Aerius had seemed to busy for her and she met Aiden. Aiden might play football but he wasn't a stupid jock. He was studying sports medicine, he wasn't the type of guy to think that he could play a sport all his life. He had a back up career. They had met through their medical classes. Plus, Mikayla had always liked football thanks to her dad. It was something that they had bonded over. She wondered what type of gun Aerius was messing around with, it looked from her vantage point, a little different. She walked over to him and said.<br/><br/>"Hey, stranger. Long time, no see."<br/><br/>She had been excited that at the idea of going to the same university as her friend, until she realized she'd be spending her freshman year without actually seeing him much. It had hurt at first, that was until she met Aiden and had started to make new friends. Not that she didn't miss her friendship with Aerius, though. She just didn't want push a friendship on him if he didn't want it anymore.
