Riiiiiight, talk to him alone, just the two of them. "I would love nothing better than to talk to him... alone... with no one around. But until he decides he wants to talk to me then that's not going to happen now is it."
Crap.
Patroclus was only trying to help and here she was getting sort of snippy with him. "I'm sorry. I know you're trying to help and really I'm not trying to be mean to you. It's just I have thought of nothing but talking to Carter and trying to work things out but I can't do that if he won't talk to me, and especially if I can't find him anywhwere." How is it that they live in the same school, are in the same year, yet it has been weeks since she has seen him. "When you see him again will you please tell him I would like to talk to him?" She really hated putting him in the middle of this and asking him to do that but really she didn't know what else to do.
If Carter still didn't want to be around her or talk to her then she would know that there was no hope for them, that he really had moved on without her.
Patroclus sat wide-eyed as the tyrad that was Marie unleashed it's self.
Being the lovely guy he was, Patroclus just sat there and let Marie get out her rage.
"It's OK," he smiled, as if he was going to get angry at the poor girl, she was in an emotional blender, of course she was feeling mixed up.
"When I see him next I will tell him to go find you." Patroclus was more than happy to help the girl out, as long as it didn't hurt his and Carter's friendship.
Jokingly Patroclus added,
"You know where he sleeps, you could always camp out at the portrait, and ambush him!" he smiled, it was a joke, you know easing the tension and all that jazz.
"I am sure he wants to talk to you too. He's a boy, sometimes we are just to proud talk about emotions......proud or stupid."
