I got my food and went in search of free tables with Yasmin. As we walked through the crowded cafeteria, I Saw Lucas. He motioned me over. There were two free seats by him.
I held Yasmin's hand and led her over there.
As we approached, Lucas stood up with a bright smile. He looked happy for someone who'd claimed he was very tired a few minutes ago.
"Hey, Jarl. Kept you a seat." he started but then noticed Yasmin.
"Uh, hi."
"Hi." she smiled.
He turned to me.
"She's the best friend you told me about? Yasmin?"
"Yup. She finally made it." I replied happily.
"Nice to meet you, Yasmin. You seem familiar. Have we met?"
"No, I don't think so." Yazz lied and I shook my head in amusement.
"You're probably right. You should have a seat."
"Thanks" we both replied.
Lucas being behind me was kind enough to pull my chair for me to sit.
"Hmm. Why are you so happy, Lucas? And since when did you become a gentleman?" I mused.
He chuckled and sat down too.
