Xavier Jennings?

Holly Winslow's mind went blank. What did this have to do with Xavier Jennings?
'Wasn't it Scholar Quincy?'
When she finally processed it, she let out a soft "Huh?" Looking at Julian Carlton's face, she opened her mouth to say something but couldn't make a sound.
'Why did I just shake my head? Didn't I just indirectly admit to being in a relationship!'
'How am I supposed to explain this to Mr. Carlton now?'
'If I say it wasn't Xavier Jennings, he'll definitely ask who it was.'
'The "crime" of me being in a relationship is already a foregone conclusion.'
'I need to drink some milk tea to calm my nerves.'
After struggling for half a minute, she took a deep breath and prepared to explain. "Mr. Carlton, I..."
A voice cut her off. "Mr. Carlton, I need to see you about something."
Jared Zimmerman walked over, one hand stuffed in his pocket. He had probably just woken up; the left side of his face was still red from being pressed against something.
