...Oh no. Hady was here earlier than he anticipated! Thank Batman Maxon had just finished his letter because now he could fold it up and NOT let Hady see the part he'd written about her. That would be embarrassing, yup. He shoved the folded letter into his bag and capped his ink, putting it and the quill inside the bag as well. He grinned as she called him Batman. He liked that A LOT. "Um, no, not really." He shuffled through the contents of his bag and pulled out the comics. "No to that as well. Just writing a letter to my mom." Homework schomework. Hady was doing that intense thing where she stared into his eyes and it made him feel like he was in a bit of a daze. He cleared his throat and shook and shook his head as if to clear his mind.
"I brought you some good ones," he said as he handed her the comics. "
The Long Halloween and the
Hush series." Noticing the lollipop in her mouth, he teased, "You didn't bring me one even though I'm sharing my comics with you?" Heh.
