I just shake my head at this obvious tactic and I decide that I'm done with whatever game she's playing.
"What do you want, Elise?" I ask in exasperation. "We've got a hiking field trip tomorrow and I need to not be here anymore." I tell her plainly.
Her face morphs into one of pure disdain but she manages to tamper it. "I-I'm sorry." She says contritely. "It's just… I've never really had friends before…" She starts to carefully say, pouring out drinks for the both of us.
I listen blandly, not pointing out her hench girls, I didn't want to prolong the conversation any more than was necessary.
"So this is really new for me and I appreciate you being nice even though I'm such a horrible person." She layers it on thick and hands me the second glass of punch, taking the second one for herself.
I collect it from her wearily, wondering what she could be planning now. "Sure." I mumble half heartedly, pushing back my wild hair with a hand.
