Reaching up she slid her hand over his, giving him a small smile. What had happened up there to make him so....anxious? He was happier before, not as much as she'd liked him to be, but still happy. "You sang well." She took his hand and gently tugged it, trying to get him sit. Quote:

She plopped into a seat and crossed her arms across her chest like the angry, stubborn child that she was at the moment. Tears were welling in her eyes, she was so ANGRY. Let out a cry of frustration she uncrossed her arms and simply lay her arms on the table and her head on top of them.
If anyone so much as TOUCHED her she was going to come up hexing. She had never in her LIFE been so embarrassed and angry. NEVER. It took a few tugs before he was able to come out of his thoughts enough to turn his attentions away from the inner workings of his mind. Then and only then did he notice two specific things. First, the concerned look he was receiving from Arya who seemed to be trying to get him to sit. The second, was Lexi and her anger.
Lafay had warned him to use his head before acting by his heart, but his head was completely turned off at the moment. So there wasn't any thought, only pure emotion as he gave Arya's hand a small squeeze and kissed the back of it. "Give me...two seconds." His voice came quiet, barely present. An indication he would be right back, that he would sit as soon as he was done what he needed to do.
Letting her hand slip out of his, he moved the few seats over to Lexi, cautiously putting a hand on her shoulder and giving it a slight squeeze. "Lexi...."
