Rachel's used to being notice. It means she never had to put out much effort in order to meet people, though she did have to remember names and details to keep on good terms. And while there was, and always sort of had been, a decently sized wave of boys that had tried to occupy her attention through junior high and her few years of high school... she had noticed Tobias.
Sometimes, she found, it was the people that did their best to stay out of her way and unnoticed from everyone that were the most interesting.
See: Tobias versus, say, Marco.
"I don't know how things would have turned out without it," Rachel says quietly, poking at her food again, "but I don't see the point in wondering about it either. Life wasn't... it wasn't that bad. And the things we did, some people wait their whole lives to do."
And some people... don't.
"We were kids. We did our best and I think our best was pretty damn good."
