This story belongs to my friend, we'll call her Alice*. She had a boyfriend named Collin* with whom she broke up with several months ago. This story takes place a month ago, in the parking lot of GR Highschool*. Alice pulled into the parking lot late one afternoon for some leadership conference that she had to go to. She had called her friend Brett* earlier to see if she was there already. She was, so Alice drove around the parking lot until she saw her friend. She found her and had to drive around again to park in the space next to hers.
After one round about, she pulled into a parking spot with one space in between her car and Brett's. In the time it took Alice to drive around the parking lot, Collin had walked up to Brett's car, tapped on the closed window and began a conversation with her.
Alice turned off her car, walked around to the trunk to get her bag, and walked over to Brett. Collin didn't leave. He stood a little off to the side while Brett and Alice exchanged a friendly hug. Alice ignored her ex-boyfriend because they had a fight after the breakup and they weren't anywhere near speaking terms at the time.
Brett and Alice walked towards the school building arm in arm, talking the whole way about friendly nothings. Collin followed a few paces behind in silence. When the three reached the school building, Collin finally went off by himself and left Alice and her friend alone.
Seeing as Collin seems to deeply dislike Alice (and has called her a bitch in the presence of some of my friends and has admitted to doing so to me without apology), the aforementioned situation was unnecessarily tense and awkward due to the presences of an angry ex-boyfriend. Who followed them. Without saying anything. In a dark parking lot. With a baseball bat. Just kidding! About the baseball bat, I mean. He still followed them... just not with a baseball bat... but in silence...
