Midterms were over and Justin and Emily stood in front of the movie theater when Alexa waved them down. She was in the middle of a group that consisted of Zack, Kristi, Dominic, Rick, three other people from indie game club whose names he couldn't quite remember because they hadn't really talked, two girls that were completely unfamiliar, and a very buff man covered in tattoos.
"These are all your friends?" Emily whispered.
He shook his head. "No, I only know about half of them. The other half are Alexa's friends. She's the one who initiated this get together."
"Oh."
"Hey, Justin!" Zack greeted cheerfully. "Who's your friend?"
"This is Emily, she's my downstairs neighbor."
"Nice to meet you, Emily. I'm Zack! These lovely people are Dominic, Kristi, Mandy, Rick, Steven, and Angela." He pointed to each member of the indie game club as he said their name.
