Katy was sweet and he gave her a wide smile. "No, it's alright. Really." He wasn't really sad, just wished that things were different. And he didn't mind talking about it at all. He couldn't help but to grin as she continued though. "Oh, were they really? I bet.." Henry chuckled at the thought. "Thanks though. I'm glad you came. I think there's nothing I love more than being right in the middle of an intense game." And he really appreciated when his friends came to support him.
Borrowing the scarf would be too much. Like... she was already being extremely uncool, and she didn't feel at all like herself, and she felt like that last acknowledgement of weakness, even if it was just weakness against the gelid air coming up over the lake.

"You're the Puffiest Puff, Henry. The Puffiest. It's endearing, in case it wasn't obvious. And yes, and you seem not at all surprised that the girls in the stands are jealous monsters. I'd say you're almost proud of it." She leaned forward on the railing to look out over the ravine below. The leaves were all gold and russet and orange. "Can I ask you something? That kiss... on the train? Did it mean anything?"
