Re: The Hallway.
There was a long stare there as she let him ramble on about stuff before it all started to settle in.
"Ooooooooh....." The sound was exaggerated for a bit, before she let out another, "Oh." Well, this was awkward. She looked confused, before it clicked again. "Oh! Oh.." Now she felt really bad. "And that's why I'm your date."
There was a sudden rush of red in her face. He'd seen her in her underwear not too long ago. He'd seen her look like a polyester deathtrap from the 80's, bleeding all over herself. He saw her look like a hot mess in that memory... "That's what you weren't telling me in the hospital," she said after a minute. "You were not telling me that Thomas was adopting you and that's why you felt guilty. You wanted to tell me." If only she knew how off she was.
