Scene: Dayton Christian cafetorium, at a lunch table. Clockwise around: Cassie, Caroline, Nia, empty seat, Keith, Townsend, Alex, me, empty seat reserved for Mike.
I walk in, put my stuff down, and go to get coffee. The lady's taking care of the person ahead of me, so I pay and go back to get my food. When I'm halfway back to the table, I notice Olivia (girl who flirts with Mike) trying to take Mike's seat. Uh-uh.
Me: Hey, Olivia, that seat's reserved for Mike.
Olivia: I know, I'm pulling up a chair.
Me: Okay, well, could you pull it up on the other side of him?
Olivia: No, I'm going to sit in between you two.
My brain: Like h-e-double-hockey-sticks you are.
Me: No, no, no. My boyfriend has been absent for two days. He is sitting next to me so we can talk.
My brain: Someone please help me out here...
Alex: Which party of "boyfriend and girlfriend" don't you get? They're sitting next to each other.
Aubrey (who already dislikes Olivia): *walks over while rolling up sleeves* Is there a problem here?
My brain: THANK YOU GOD!!!
Me: *almost cries with happiness/anger* No, we're fine. Thanks for asking though.
When I turned around, Olivia had quietly taken a seat on the opposite side of the table. However, she continued to glare daggers at me and Mike for the duration of lunch.
