Rose blinked, momentarily at a loss for words. "Wait… you're dating?" She sounded more surprised than she intended. "Wow, I never knew."
The man stood up, extending his hand with a polite smile. "Hello, Rose. Sorry to interrupt your reunion."
Rose nodded slightly but didn't take his hand, her expression tightening. Tony? she thought, recognizing him immediately"Ah, good," she said tersely, her tone making it clear she wasn't thrilled.
Tony, sensing the tension, withdrew his hand, his smile never wavering "Uhh, sorry," he said, trying to ease the moment.
Rose's eyes flicked to Luna "I didn't know you two were… comparable."Her tone was measured, but the implication was clear. She knew Tony too well; they had all studied together back in college.
Luna chuckled, waving her hand dismissively. "Well, opposites attract, right?"
Before Rose could respond, Luna grabbed her arm and led her to the couch, sitting her down beside her.
