Wow, you're popular! - Locked for Eli and Krista
Who: Eileanea and Krista
What: Congrats
When: right after election results came out
Where: Krista's room
Warnings: Should be none. Possible talking about sad pasts and socialization issues.
As soon as Eli heard the news, she bounded out of bed. No clone for this... she was actually excited to leave the room for once.
She pulled on a pretty dress, one that was a deep green with a brown pattern over it, and pulled her hair back into a ponytail. Shoving her feet into shoes, she grabbed her purse and headed out. She made her way to Krista's room as quickly as she could without looking like she was rushing, then took several breaths. Trying to act casual, she knocked on the door.

How was she supposed to put this pleasantly and have Eli understand? She found herself thoroughly at a loss.

You're my best friend!" she insisted, then stopped dead, realizing what she said, flushing and looking down at her shoes.
She had not meant to say that!!!!! She had always been so careful not to seem like she liked any one friend more than the others. To be equally friends with the whole group. But now.....

Part of her felt excited, proud, but perhaps for the wrong reasons. She'd done it -- made someone actually trust her, actually like her!
At the same time, she felt sort of bad about it. What did Eli really know about her? She was a good person. She deserved a best friend who was more... real.
But when she turned to look at her, she smiled, happy and warm and grateful.
"You're mine, too, Eli. I just meant to say... my roommate, she isn't always very easy to get along with. I'd feel really terrible if she did something to upset you."

"A..alright then," she said. She was someone's best friend and... and... and that someone... was concerned for her. Warmth flooded through her and she closed her eyes, savoring the feeling.

"What about this dress?"

She'd have to think of something to do for her, in return.

She had bought it when she was pressured by her friends to buy a ring. She had been tight on cash that week, and hadn't wanted to spend money, but she didn't want to no longer be part of the group, so she bought the ring, even though it didn't fit her right. It was very pretty, it just didn't fit. But it might fit her new friend!
no subject
She picked up the dress, and gave her a smile. "I'm going to get changed now, if you want to turn around or go out into the hall for a moment."
She didn't care much either way, but Eli was flustered so easily sometimes, it seemed best to give her a little bit of warning.

Handwave since this was a long time ago?
Sure.
