Fresh air and working on the sketch were obvious things he supposed, so all he could do in response to Hady was nod. He was comfortable here, beside her, it helped slow the cogs that were turning in his head. Those cogs stalled briefly as he let out a short chuckle. Hady was too funny. "Maggie gets more than my free time, but yeah." He didn't want to go a day without seeing her face if he could help it. And that was the thing, right now it was easy, but soon things would be, different.
"Can you believe we'll be graduating soon?"
Just the same old. That wasn't a Zeke line. What was going on with this boy?
Hady shifted sideways just enough to really look at him. Something was off. Way to serious for her liking and not enough laughing, joking and playful nudges. Whatever was happening she was going to fix it. No one was allowed to be so down or serious when around here, he had always cheered her up and she was going to do the same for him.
Fresh air was always a given with her whenever she was able. Being outside in the open did things for her that being inside couldn't. The sketch well that went about with painting and she really needed to keep up with that. However right now her time was going to Zeke and she smiled at hearing his laugh even if it was just a short laugh.
"This much I know," she teased gently nudging him.
"I share a dorm with her." Which meant she heard her fair share of stories, just as she had told some herself.
"I know...I didn't think this year would come so fast but here we are and it's already nearly over." If this was what was on his mind Hady could very easily relate. Growing up and moving on was tough. Worrying about getting things done, being good enough, where you and everyone else was going to end up. It was huge. Scary. Most of the time she didn't feel ready. Turning back around so her back was to the railing again her leaned lightly against her friend like she always did.
"Things will turn out alright, you know."
