If Leigh wanted to tell her someting, she would, in her own due time.
Laughing, Broke put her hands on Tallan's shoulders, and although he had been 'pretending' to keep her steady, she was actually using him as a balance, to stop her from falling over onto her face. She needed to stop spinning, like, really needed too. "Nooo," she said, rolling her eyes away from Tallan's gaze. There was no need for him to know that she'd been that stupid, although he could probably guess. "And so what if I have? It's fun!" Brooke looked back at him with a giggle. "You fell out of your bedroom window?!" she yelped. How on earth had he managed that? It was scary, and that bus was mean. Yup, she decided then what it was; mean and silly. And something Brooke didn't like. "How did you manage to fall out of a window?" "I've been good Boone," James grinned at his friend, although the fact that Leigh had avoided his gaze was nagging at him. Stupid girly-ness; they were supposed to be best friends, right?
Looking back as Leigh now searched out his gaze, James gave up trying to figure out what was wrong with her. He's ask her later, when they found a moment alone, and she'd tell him then. After all, they were best friends, which she happened to point out. "Hi Leigh," he managed, before sliding his hand out of his girlfriends. "'Course you get a hug," he muttered into her ear as he engulfed her with his arms. "Somethin' just told me you didn't want one, that's all."
Breaking away from Leigh, James spotted Andre over her shoulder. "Oi, Andre mate. Gerrup!" he said, as he watched his friend just sit there on the grass, evidently in thought. Beckoning him over, he knew that the boy didn't feel he was truly part of their 'group' yet. but james wanted him to know that he felt he was. That was when he spotted Shannon; Reece's girlfriend. He didn't really know her that well, but beckoned her over all the same. Reece should be here any minute. "I'll tell you later, k?" Leigh whispered to Brooke, grimacing slightly. She felt bad that she couldn't tell her friend what was wrong. But she just couldn't, not with... certain people within earshot.
She couldn't help but breathe a silent sigh of relief when James hugged her. She hugged him back, feeling slightly guilty at what he said. Really, she shouldn't be upset with him for having a girlfriend. She should just be his best best friend, and be happy with it. And really, being a best friend wasn't so bad, if you still got those hugs... "I always want one." she mumbled back, letting go as he pulled away.
Feeling like she was getting back to being her normal, bubbly self, Leigh turned her attention to everyone else who'd joined the group during her small moment of moodiness. She saw Boone, Andre, Shannon, Jesse, Izzy... she gave them all a big smile and a cheerful wave before glancing back at James. Maybe...maybe she could get him alone for a second. She felt like she really needed to talk to him, just best friend to best friend. "You okay there?" Tallan laughed, tightening his grip a bit, and actually helping to keep Brooke standing. He shook his head in mock shame as she practically admitted to what she'd been doing. "Well, if it's so fun, then I'll just have to try it some time! See for myself." That's right; Mr. Cool could have fun. He was actually really good at it. He loved fun.
He managed a short laugh at Brooke's concern. "I fell out of my bedroom window." he repeated, biting his lower lip. "It's an interesting story, really." K, that was a lie. But oh well. He'd tell it anyway. "See, I'm grounded. And I saw y'all over here, and I wanted to come over. BUT. I couldn't go out the front door, because then I'd have to walk past my parents." He paused for dramatic effect. "So, I had the brilliant idea to climb out my bedroom window. And I, well, fell. In a bush." So that was the heroic ending to his wonderful tale. He was such a stud.
