Shopping for graduation

Alyssa wished that she could take his advice, but it was easier said than done.

She had way too much anxiety to not panic over everything, and it was hard to avoid Scott when he found her everywhere and cornered her.

She would try to take his advice as much as she possibly could, though. She didn't want to be frazzled when graduation arrived.

"Okay," she merely said, trying to lock her thoughts up for now. She was sure that Elias was done talking about what happened too.

Maybe it would come up at another time, but she was sure that Elias would try to bury what happened like all the other incidents.

She was quiet on the drive back to his place, while Elias tried to fill the silence by talking about things happening in his business leaders club.

She listened to what he said, but she couldn't help but think that he was just trying to distract her. She wished that distractions actually worked.
