But she shot a glance at Robert before standing up, working her way out from his arms. "May as well take care of whatever now, I guess," she said, not really entirely sure she wanted to hear what he had to say, considering they didn't exactly have the best track record when it came to conversations. "I mean, before Mr. Masterson expects us to settle in for the night or whatever," she continued to explain, looking at him as he stuck his hands in his pockets. At least he looked kind of uncomfortable too.
With a glance at Mari, she turned to look down at Robert still sitting on her sleeping bag. "I'll be back in a little bit," she told him, trying to reassure herself that everything was going to be fine. What could Cayden want to talk to her about? She didn't really have any idea, unless it had anything to do with her conversations with Mari since she'd told her about Robert.
He smiled at Liz as she started to panic as though he was going to eat her along the way for a snack."I would appreciate it." he told her as she talked about doing it before it was too later. Sooner than later.He nodded at Mari as he gave her a smile and then started to walk with mari. They were far enough distance that normal people wouldnt be able to hear."Thank you for walking with me, but you can relax. I'm not going to do anything."He assured her as he smiled."Or I could make you relax. Which ever you prefer."
He had stopped as he had put his hands in his pockets." I just wanted to apologize for earlier in the year. It was a little rocky as you know, but its not an excuse. I'm sorry I upset you that day. You cant blame me for wanting to protect her. She's been through quite a few people who have been bad to her. I didnt want you to another disappointment for her." He paused for a second as he then added," She really likes you." It was true. He would say Liz and Asteira were the ones she loved the most when it came to her friends."I want us to be friends. I know we will never be close friends, but I want us to be in the same room without any panic. Robert and I will cause another Issue, but I'm afraid that it will only be solved when one of us is dead. For both of us. I would like us to get along though. Do you think is possible?" he asked her as he hoped it was. " I know I've done some things that were bad. I know..." he told her as he knew she had been told. " I regret doing it now, but it doesnt change that it happened. I wanted to thank you for helping her that day. You proved to be her friend...i wont protest your friendship any longer." he promised her as she had proved it to him.
