Then she smiled when he suddenly hugged her. Surprised and happy. She wasn't expecting that, and to feel that what she did meant a lot to someone felt nice. "Well, it's most definitely not a cardboard box." She said jokingly with a light laugh
Then she smiled when he finally started talking. Good! Finally! "Ah...the plot thickens." She said teasingly, then she thought for a while...."A girl, liking a guy and the guy doesn't feel the same why?" She repeated absently while thinking...That could be anyone.. "Are they in the same house?" She asked
Christopher laughed too as they broke apart.
"I'm sure it's wonderful. Much better than a cardboard box." He chuckled. He wondered what Cass's house really was like. Certainly not a box, but probably something small and simple. He'd always wanted a nice little house like that. Fancy houses were cool and everything, but they never really seemed like anything he could call home.
He continued to stare down at his shoes, unable to look at Cass. He was so confused about how he felt towards her, and yet he wasn't web sure if her crush was more than a rumor.
"Well it's not that they boy doesn't like her back, it's just that really doesn't know if he wants to stay friends or be something more." He felt so awful about all of this, and his stomach was tellig he may possibly be sick.
"No, they aren't in the same house, if that helps narrow it down for you." Please don't ask anymore, PLEASE don't ask anymore! That line was running rapidly through Christopher's mind in another silent prayer, but he was sure that his hopes wouldn't happen.
