Laney turned the knob and pushed the door open slowly. Peeking around it, she gave him a shy smile and moved into his room. After hesitating for a moment, she shut the door again behind her. They needed privacy. Him breaking his desk out of anger was a huge deal and what she was going to share with him was too.
"Hi," she said, kind of quietly. "You feeling okay?" She wasn't exactly sure why she was tiptoeing around him. It just felt weird to act like they always did while a pile of wood sat within such a close range. She stood there awkwardly, not sure whether she should sit next to him on the bed or not. "You really fucked that thing up, huh?" There. A little joke could lighten the mood, right?
