With Izzy it was different but this was good--better, really. They were friends already but Recard didn't want to be just friends. No. Que the hand sweating.

"I was wondering if..." Don't back down you can do this! He looked down at her hands, her think, slinder fingers tracing the corners of her magazine. Her eyes looking at him, excitement written in their wake and her lips...

"...you need any envelopes, I just got some in the other day if you want some"

Crap. He blew it.
Gabi seemed to hold her breath as Armen started to ask her something...OHMIGOSH, could it be, was he about to ask her out, something she'd been fantasizing about for weeks now?? This was so exciting, she hoped she looked okay and she didn't have any mascara smudges or anything on her face, that would just ruin the perfection of this moment...

wait.

ENVELOPES?

HE CAME TO ASK HER ABOUT ENVELOPES???

A wave of emotions overcame Gabi. First, she was overcome with a strong desire to reach over the cubicle wall, grab Armen by the collar of his shirt and slam his head on the desk for getting her hopes up like that. Then, disappointment. She'd been sure they had a mutual liking for one another, they practically admitted it to one another! Maybe she'd been wrong, and had just conjured up the whole thing in her mind. Next, embarrassment, because she was sure she looked like a loon right now, and her disappointment was shining bright on her face, she was sure. Finally, panic because a good five seconds had passed now and she hadn't said anything, and she was making this whole situation much worse.

"Oh, um...sure, I could always use more envelopes," she said with a small chuckle, trying to make the mood lighter in the cubicle. Because this job just had her sending SO MANY important memos to people all the time. Pssh. She wished.
