Cass kept her eyes locked on Levi as she watched him make his way across the compartment and sit next to Fee, right next to the window. He was acting weird today. Very weird. Does this mean he heard what they were talking about earlier? Or maybe he was just tired...She didn't know and it was getting confusing.
Then her eyebrow rose as he answered her question. "You don't seem very psyched." Cass muttered under her breath, soft enough only for the two of them to hear.
Levi continued to stare out the window, trying to play it cool. The sights were starting to make him chill out. He was starting to feel a little better as he tried to straighten out his thoughts. New guy...what new guy? He couldn't have cared less if Cass had met a hundred new boys. She had every right to, didn't she? Still, it hurt to know that how second-rate he was. Was he not good-looking enough for her? Not coordinated enough? He knew he was built like a scarecrow but he couldn't help it.
Hearing her mumble, he frowned slightly. Makes ya I wonder why I'm not... he thought, looking a bit annoyed.
He glanced over at Fee, trying to stay neutral. "What's goin' on?" he repeated. "Oh...nothing. What about you?"
