I decided to respond, since Gabriella didn’t seem like she intended to. Shit. Thankfully, Serenity took up the questioning. When I didn’t respond, she sighed heavily before making her way back down the stairs. “And you just moved here?” I continued. “Oh, fuck. Was it because she trusted me to listen? I mean, it’s not like I’m offended or anything. “I’ll go get them.”
“Are you sure?” I asked seriously, sitting more upright in my seat, indicating I was about to get up to do it myself. It doesn’t take a genius to see that something is up with you two.”
I shrugged, taking a bite of food to have an excuse to not answer right away. “But that’s why you said yes?” I hoped. Check it out later, when you have the chance. But I can see I still have some searching to do. “Sorry. “Sure,” I agreed simply, giving my housemate a reassuring smile. “Or at least, I will get some…” Her voice trailed off as she gave me another quick look.
