Nessie didn't even wait for Pixie to find her words. Using Pixie like a toy made her come to a conclusion. That worrying about who she is, is a silly thing to worry about. She'll be who she is as long as she does what she wants to do. She started getting dressed to leave the dorm room for the first time today. "Hey where are you going?" Pixie asked.
Nessie put on her jacket, "in about 10 minutes it's when I usually pass by John in the hallway. I'm going to hang out with him."
"Just like that?"
"Just like that."
"Ohhh you... fucking tease. I'm rubbing off on you."
Nessie smirked, "You're really good at rubbing something."
Pixie sighed, "Listen. Nessie. I like this new you, but people don't make changes like this so quickly. Don't make any mistakes out there."
Nessie felt a truth to her words, but was too motivated and stubborn to admit it. "I'll be fine" She says as she leaves the dorm.
"Oh that girl..." Pixie mutters to herself.
With a hint of mischief she checks the drawer that Nessie usually leaves the pendant in, hoping she could pay back Nessie's behavior from that morning. Alas, there was no pendant to be seen. Nessie, in all her energy, had the wherewithal to remember to take it with her. "Darn..." Pixie thinks aloud as she hovers over to her soft pillow and curls up to take a nap.
Nessie, with a rejuvenated smile on her face and a pep in her step, waits for Josh in the hallway where their paths cross. She sat waiting on a loveseat, one of many placed throughout the interior of campus to help students take proper breaks on hard days full of study. Or midday naps for people on their way to dropping out. Josh comes walking by right on que. "Hey Josh!"
"Oh, hi! Hey Nessie what's up?"
"Not much, just feeling really good today. Hey, are you free this weekend?"
"Um... yeah? I could make time. What did you have in mind?"
"I don't know yet... start with food?"
"What kind of food?"
Nessie thought for a second. They were both capable of getting up early. "Breakfast? And then we go from there?"
Josh smiled, "Yeah I can do that, there's a place I like down the street. I'll shoot you the info later."
"Sweet thanks!"
"See you saturday!"
Josh started to walk off towards his next class. Nessie decided to give chase, "Hey do you mind if I walk with you?" she asked.
"Yeah go ahead. I don't mind." he said, making room for her to stride next to him.
Nessie smiled as she took her place, "You know, I still don't even know your major."
"Huh, I guess it never came up."
Nessie waited for a second before asking, "Well, what is it?"
"Oh right. Uhh business. It's pretty easy."
Nessie smiled, "So the legends say. I'm majoring in English."
"Oh that's pretty neat. What made you want to do that?" Josh asked.
Nessie answered, "I've always liked to read, just wanted to take it to the next level I guess."
"That makes sense. For me I've always dreamed of running my own business. Something fun like a pizza shop or a trampoline park."
"Ooo, what do I gotta do to get free pizza for life?"
Josh kinda laughed, "I don't think you're ready for that."
"What does that mean?" Nessie asked.
Josh laughed, "Don't worry about it."
Nessie had an idea what he was thinking. She stifled her blush when the thoughts crossed her mind as well. She replied, "Well now I'm going to worry about it."
An abstract thought passed through her mind. She felt like she was playing a game rather than socializing. She was putting work into enticing this guy, but she could just as easily go home and play with Pixie all she wants. Was it worth it? She knew she'd rather work on getting closer to this guy, and develop a real something, but there was still a nagging call to get her attention for free from Pixie. Those feelings suddenly brought forth all her emotional exhaustion from earlier. Luckily that came just as they approached the door to the classroom she was walking him to. She smiled and waved as she sent him into his class, and once the door closed behind him her emotions were worn on her face.
She started to wander back to her dorm. Pixie was right, she wasn't suddenly ready to be this confident and flirty person. Not only had she only managed to set up a date rather than get in his pants, she completely socially burnt out in less than 10 minutes. She also became aware of how sexually spoiled she's been thanks to Pixie's meddling. Self imposing the work to break away from what's easy felt exhausting on her already taxed psyche. She slumped back to her dorm, feeling defeated.
Upon opening the door Pixie woke up, "How'd it go?" she asked groggily.
Nessie didn't feel like talking about it. She grabbed her pendant from under her shirt, opened it up, and licked her pussy in order to send all her thoughts to Pixie in order to avoid explaining. Pixie's eyes weakened, "Oh honey... we'll need to work on this..."
Nessie sighed, "I would like to work on this another day, please."
Nessie slumped over onto her bed. Pixie fluttered over and sat down next to her pillow. She grabbed a strand of Nessie's hair and started stroking it gently. "You have a date with him on saturday..." Pixie reminded.
Nessie hid her face under a limp arm, "I know... should I have even done that? Am I ready?"
