Much watched her intently with his head on a tilt, his eyes widening a little as she moved her thumb, making just a tiny depression where she touched her leg. He pulled his eyes back up as she was talking about missing him (cos that's what she meant, yeah??) so he was watching her when she lifted her eyes up and looked at him again.
"Well yeah, space, I can get behind that. Can totally get behind making some space. I've been working heaps extra, helping out at the soup kitchen heaps extra, but I don't actually have to pick up every going shift, not if you're there, I mean, if you wanna hang out, if you're free, and like, it's all good and stuff..."
He wasn't totally sure what he meant by 'and stuff', either. All good with Kaden? He probably meant if it was all good with Kaden. He really didn't want to mess anything up with Marcie and Kaden there, and thing's been volatile for a while.
She was smiling at him in a sort of way, though. He was finding it hard to look away from her. Finding it just as hard to stop talking, yeah that too, but when he did finally stop talking, he was still looking at that smile.
