Verity nearly glared at him but instead she found herself cracking a smile and looking down. "Yeah, alright- so I've been avoiding it. But- I mean what's the point in talking about it?" It was just going to be nerve wracking and awkard.
She was either going to hear that he possibly still (or again?) had feelings for her and then they were at an impass. Or she was going to have to hear for a third time that he didn't care for her and she just didn't think she could keep hearing that speech over and over again...
