By the tOdie snapped back to reality, his classmate had already whisked Sophie away, whispering, "Was that guy weird or what? He was staring at you the entire time." "Who are you calling weird?" Odie shot back, not one to let idle gossip slide.
The girl's face fell, worried Odie might be skind of nutcase. In their world, you never knew what kind of people you'd run into-rich kids weren't exactly known for their sanity.

Odie raised an eyebrow, teasingly asking, "Oh really? Besides me, was there anyone else staring at you?" He leaned in a bit closer, and Sophie instinctively shut her eyes, looking genuinely scared.
Odie noticed this with a glimmer of amusement in his eyes. So easy to rattle? Who knew the Sophie from his dreams could be this timid? "Do you know why I was staring at you?" he asked.
Sophie shook her head, eyes wide and innocent, like a freshman on their first day of college.

Sophie flushed a deep shade of red, stumbling back in a fluster, "I-I don't want to know anymore!" And with that, she grabbed her friend and dashed away.

"Are you really that scared of me?" Odie teased, trailing behind her. "Could it be that you've got a crush on me?" "!!"
Sophie stared at him incredulously. Having grown up around gentlemen, she'd never met someone so brash and full of himself right off the bat.
"I've got registration to do, so please stop following me," Sophie said, her politeness intact, before darting towards the lecture halls.
Odie was momentarily taken aback by her response. Even after being teased, she stayed so courteous? That was unusual. Dream-Sophie was no timid little rabbit, he thought, comparing the two sides of her.
But then it hit him-this might be his only chance to mess with Sophie, dream or not.
