After Ellie's big "femme fatale" thing, she noticed Braeden glare at her. It took her a minute to realize what in Merlin's name he was doing. OOOOH, the the glare that all sexy models did. She could tell he was trying pretty hard to get it down, but... it didn't really work. She was laughing so hard her sides began to hurt. She covered her mouth to try and compose herself, but was still laughing. The other people in the room must have thought they were insane. First, a guy blinded himself, then they tried seducing each other. Normal.
She took a mental picture of Braeden so she could accurately start painting him. She nodded "I'm sure, Braeden. It's no big deal." She said with a light laugh. "Though... I can't pass up your offer on carrying some of my books. I could always use help with that." She had no upper-body muscle. Whatsoever. And from the looks of it, neither did Braeden. Mental note: Only give him one or two books. She chuckled to herself.
Braeden beamed as Ellie agreed to at least letting him carry her books. GOOD. Now he felt useful and like he had at least paid part of his debt to her. "In that case, just send me a note whenever you're about to head off to class, and I'll show up there in less than fifteen seconds; I'll randomly run out of class if I have to," said Braeden reassuringly with a nod. Yep. She could count on him. The good thing about Braeden? Do him a small favour and he'll pay it back with interest. The boy was just too grateful for his own good; best be careful or he might just burst into tears and declare you a saint.
Well, maybe not literally, but... yeah.
