Wednesday 3/15, Library is Open

[swerval_zero]

Zero opened up the library, as usual, and settled in behind the desk to be available for all the student body's libraryish needs. Which frequently seemed to consist of gossiping and bringing the aides pastry, but hey, she wasn't complaining.

Parker rolled her eyes. "Because it's now public knowledge that I've kissed Jarod. I'll be killing some people about the spread of that info later. Although Jaye has already been kind enough to agree to measures against Skeeter." She may have grinned evilly on that last bit.

"You kissed Jarod?" Zero squealed.

Palming her face, Parker nodded. "Sunday. The park. Rehearsing Shakespeare." She muttered, "If I ever need to seduce someone deliberately, obviously Shakespeare is the way to go."

"He's a good seduction writer," Zero agreed. "'Course, most people go for the sonnets instead of the play about the vengeful fairy queen, but you're not most people."

"Thank you, Zero. It's good to know that my friends understand me." Parker grimaced. "Anyway. It's no big deal, really. We're friends. Again. It's good. So. Right. Weirdness over."

She stole some more of Zero's crisps and munched them, looking vaguely depressed.

Zero stole another grape. "Except that maybe you don't want to be friends?"

"Except I do want to be friends, I just want... Yes. Even though it's a bad, bad idea." Parker shook her head. "I'm losing my mind."

"Well." Zero reached for a slightly stale muffin from the assortment Marty had brought in the day before. "You are a teenager, with certain...feelings. And he's quite good-looking. And you've known him for a long time. It's perfectly understandable."

Re: Lunch

"He's more than good-looking. He's-- special." In ways that complicated everything. "I don't know how to do this. Even if I was convinced he felt the same way, which I'm pretty sure he doesn't. But this isn't something I've done before." And there were other considerations.

"I think it's sweet. You'e bein' all worried about his feelings an' stuff."

Re: Lunch

"Sweet? I don't do sweet! God, first Sandburg, now you! I'm a Parker, I'm hard-edged and steely, sweet is, is, God, it's not me!"

"Whatever you need to tell yourself, Parker."

"At least Jarod would never call me sweet."

Zero rolled her eyes and went back to her sandwich. Privately, she thought Parker was being a bit drama queeny about all this. But then, Jarod had known her a lot longer than Zero had. Maybe she was totally nutso before she came to FH.
