He must have been super tired of dealing with all the fighting.
Ha! So she did admit she was holding his hand! Wait... Carter hadn't said anything about that out loud... He replied to her narrowed eyes with a raised eyebrow.
So he didn't have cooties anymore...
Sweet Merlin. Just the thought that Destiny had grown out of her cootie phase was enough to make his head explode. But now... thanks for Marie... and no doubt his amazing brain processes he couldn't help but want to point out that she didn't think he had cooties anymore and that she was holding his hand. And it was just giving him a headache.
"What? No. Of course not. I'd probably already have kissed you had that been that case." he said grabbing her hand in his and pulling it down to their sides. He was pretty sure that that hadn't happened.
And now that he was no longer being poked he could think properly.
"What I meant was... you said yes to a dance. And you were holding my hand." And she had also been poking touching him and standing next to him.
He'd just ignore the fact that he was currently holding her hand down at their sides.
His eyes widened once more. "You like me!" he exclaimed pointing to her with the hand that wasn't currently occupied. It made perfect sense and he figured it out!
Who was the genius now? Carter! That was who!
Oh sweet Merlin!
Destiny didn't know what the big deal was. She
was eighteen, and, she would never tell anyone about this, but she did have a very long, stressful and confusing conversation about
boys with her mother. Half the things she learned has left her scarred for life! But the most important thing was that she had learned that boys don't have cooties. Although, with the way Carter was acting, he had to have something wrong with him. And
she was the one who spent all that time in St. Mungo's. Pfft.
She rolled her eyes as he grabbed her hand to stop poking him, and after trying and failing to pull away, she just gave up. It wasn't like
she was holding
his hand.
"Well, that was the only time I heard you sing and rhyme. And..you're acting like I would have let you kiss me!" No, she was sure she would have pushed him away. Gah! She didn't want to think about what she would've done. Instead, she used her free hand to poke him again.
"I only thought we were going to do the chicken dance!"
And she would just ignore the fact that she hadn't pulled her hand away when she realized that wasn't what they were doing..
Her mouth hung open when he spoke and..she could not believe he just said that. About HER! How did he come up with that? Sure, she may have tackled him for his badge. Sure, she did spend alot of time with him, but like she told Marilyn, they were just friends. It was all HIM. He let her tackle him. He spent his time with her. Destiny knew what he was doing and she gave him a hard poke in the chest.
"It's you! You like me and you are just trying to confuse me into thinking I like you because you don't want to admit that you prefer brunettes over blondes!"
Yeah. Her smug look was back.
