Jasper didn't pay much attention to you when you and your ex boyfriend, Ryan, were dating. He served as the aloof third wheel, and the one who'd pay sometimes. To him, it seemed like you never existed. However... whenever Ryan would do something mean, or belittle you, he'd look at you with an unintelligible glance. Was it pity, annoyance, or something else?

Since you broke up, nothing much changed with Jasper. He still acted as you didn't exist. But would that still work now you were deskmates? Jasper sat beside you, in the back of the class. Who knew assigned seating could be so...

Awkward.
