I hung out at her bus stop for about twenty minutes until I saw her and her friend coming, and I got up and started walking like it weren't no thing. I cross the street and say, "Hi," to which I get a mumbled, "H-". OK, I'll keep walking.
I get about ten paces by and I figure, "Fuck it," and walk back.
"Excuse me," I said.
"Yeah?" she asked.
"Who's that?" her friend wants to know.
"The guy who just said 'Hi' to us."
"Well, what's he want?"
"Well," I said, " I was just wondering if she, well, you [turning my attention to her] would like to maybe grab a cup of coffee."
She says, "Are you serious?"
"Yeah," I said, trying to keep from letting my sudden mortification shine through, "I live about two blocks down there and there's a Starbucks at the other end of the block and I've seen you around before and I was just wondering if maybe you were free to grab a cup of coffee."
"Well," she says, "we have apartment inspection today, that's why we got out of class early."
"Could I ask you some other time?"
"Yeah."
"Cool, when are you going to be around next?"
"I'll be around tomorrow."
"OK, so I'll talk to you tomorrow then."
"OK."
There. There you go. There's the update.
smooth.

Tomorrow go up and ask her if she wants to get some tea. Make no mention of the day before and deny that you've ever seen her before.

I wasn't bing a dick, either. Voice synths can be a bitch to get just right.
