"You know what, this has nothing to do with being wise. This has to do with you missing Mina... which you obviously do. For all I know you could have been picturing Mina in your head when you were kissing me." Which would mean technically he wasn't cheating on her. Unlike her who was not picturing Carter at the time.
"Look, I can tell you are worried about what Mina is going to think but really, there is no need to worry. She doesn't have to know what happened. No one has to know." Well except Destiny who had walked in on them. But Marie would know how to shut her up if she tried telling anyone. She would just remind her of her little kissing spree with Carter, and tell her she would spread that around the school. Yeah, that would shut the girl up. "When we walk out of this room we can act as if nothing ever happened. We can leave everything right here."
What happens in classroom eleven stays in classroom eleven.
Evan shifted uneasily in his chair again. Sure, even blind people could
see how Mina was happy around him, but he didn't think that she'd still remain the happiest person in the world if she learnt that he'd cheated on her with
Marie. On the contrary, she'd have every reason to dump him, and he didn't want that happen because like Marie said, he was extremely happy with her too.
"I don't think she'll take it too happily if she learns that I've cheated on her," he voiced his thoughts. He didn't even have to add
'with you', Marie knew all about her worries concerning him and particularly
her. And apparently the clever 'claw had been right--he really should have stayed away from Marie, which he'd pretty much failed at for the past two years.
He looked down. He
had pictured Mina at first, until Marie touched him. After that, all he could think about was their past and the feeling that they could be happy again. The sound of the hint that he might not be that much guilty was very nice though, and he knew better than to admit he had pictured Mina at first, so he opted to just stare at the floor on that. He didn't want to hurt her feelings, and shatter his hopes of proving out to be as innocent as a cheater could be.
Upon hearing her suggestion though, he had to look up with big eyes. Was she implying that this should remain as a secret? He blinked in shock, trying to digest that.
"So should I just lie into her face?" he said in shock. There was no way he could do it--he'd already committed a shame, and he wasn't going to add a second.
"She deserves to know..." he muttered, though one could easily tell that he was completely freaked out with the idea that she might dump him. Why couldn't they just take the past back?!
