A Hoodie Sprayed With Perfume

Emily had the sweatshirt tied around her waist as she stood at the bus stop. She never seemed to get cold- she always joked that it was the “California genes” she inherited from her dad. Honestly, it was seriously weird that she even felt the need to bring a coat in the first place.

She didn’t know Lucas very well. She’d seen him around school from time to time, and he seemed like a decent kid- the kind of guy that you wouldn’t hang out with by choice, but would be fine having as a partner for a school project. As she expected, he approached her casually.

“Hey.”

“Hi.”

Emily checked her watch. The bus was taking longer than usual to arrive. Convenient, she thought to herself.

Lucas shivered as his hair blew into his face. Even for someone as chill-resistant as Emily, she had to admit that the wind was pretty harsh today.

“Uh,” said Lucas, pushing his hair back, “are you using that sweatshirt?”

Emily shook her head. “Nah.”

“Would it be weird if I asked you if I could borrow it, then?”

She shrugged. “Go ahead, I’m not gonna need it.”

She took it off of her waist and handed it to him.

Lucas got it on pretty easily, which Emily found funny. She really hadn’t expected it to fit him.

They didn’t say anything else to each other for the rest of the wait, mainly since the bus pulled up soon after Emily gave Lucas the sweatshirt. They sat in separate spots on the bus, too. It wasn’t a big deal. Emily would get it from him later.

Eventually, after school, Emily decided it wasn’t worth waiting around to get her hoodie back. It’d take too long for it to make its way back to her, anyways.

Honestly, she felt kind of bad for Lucas. Emily doubted she’d see him again for a while.

The poor guy had never even checked the insides of the hoodie.
