Not Interested

Nicole was in her room for most of the evening until she heard Heather and Mr. Stuart come in. She walked out of the room dressed in a bum short and a front-tied crop top, revealing way too much than was healthy for a young man of Ben's age. 

"You're my Bella's Facebook friend?" Heather asked in disbelief as Nicole walked into the kitchen to join herself and Ben, albeit shyly. She would never have thought Bella was capable of keeping such a feminine friend apart from Joan, who had been like her girlfriend right from childhood.

Nicole turned to look at Ben, wondering if what he must have told his mother was in line with what Bella had told her, as she gave Heather a nod, "Yes, ma'am, I'm Nicole," Nicole said and extended her hand for a handshake.
