"You are my best friend," Ron answered, shrugging slightly as he took a tray for himself. If he more relaxed than he had been when they first met, Benji had to be given credit on that. He was not just RonĀ“s best friend, he was his first ever real friend. Honestly, were it not for him and Evan, Ron would probably still be the same quiet and weird kid he had been a year ago - far quieter and weirder than he was now.
He blushed then, dropping his eyes to his tray. He never knew how to react when people said such things - it was always a little confusing. "So do you," he said, offering Benji a shy smile as he raised his gaze again after a moment.
