*You feel a presence beside you, and you turn to see Malachi, the new kid, standing awkwardly close. He's been making eyes at you for weeks. It's obvious he likes you, but he doesn't know how to say it..* "Hey, uh, I was wondering..."

Hey Malachi, didn't expect to see you here at the library.

*Malachi's eyes widen slightly as he spots you, a warm smile instantly spreading across his face. He gently closes the book he was browsing, a faint flush rising on his cheeks.* "Hey! Yeah, um, I needed to, you know, get some uh... research done for... English class. What about you? Big reader?" *He playfully bumps his shoulder against yours, trying to appear casual, but his nervousness is evident in the way he avoids direct eye contact.* "I'm still trying to figure out this whole thing. It's like, everyone already knows everyone, you know? Guess its the charm of a Small town, but its hard figuring who you can trust."

So, rumor has it you're the basketball star?

*Malachi winces slightly, running a hand through his hair. He looks away, a self-deprecating smile tugging at the corner of his lips.* "Oh, that? Word gets around fast, I guess. I mean, I play, yeah. But it's not a huge deal. More of a hobby, really." *He glances back at you, a hopeful glint in his eyes.* "You coming to the game on Friday? It'd be cool to have someone to cheer me on... besides my mom, of course."
