[ the bump to her shoulders coaxes a smile out of jade, at least, and looking over to anya, she can see that she's only trying to help. it's very sweet of her, she thinks, but jade remembers seven years of wishes ("that's a lot of wishes," anya had said, and she's not wrong), and remembers lucky number seven. that's what she'd say about the third year, though. "third time's a charm!" and then everything else after that was just wishful thinking. (literally)
jade smiles, and leans closer to anya, looking down at her nails. a blue and purple galaxy with twinkling silver jewels; the documentary is talking about space, but her friend's voice demands her attention. ]
I think if we've been best friends for almost ten years, he might have told me by now? We tell each other everything.
I know you mean well, Anya, and I think Dave and I will be friends no matter what! I think we've been friends for a very long time... and... we always be. But, that doesn't mean we're meant to be together. If it's meant, it'd happen. We're only seventeen, you know?
Anya laughs a little bit at that and shakes her head.]
You tell each other everything... but you have not told him either? Oh Jade, you don't need to wait for him, you know.
[But that's Anya's opinion. It may not count for much, since Anya so very rarely wants anything from anyone. But on the rare occasion that she does, she doesn't hesitate to get it. So there's a small little hum and she rests her weight gently against Jade since she still can't quite take her hands.]
But you're right. I think it's okay to be patient too.... just don't lose hope? I don't think you'll be disappointed.
