Bianca & Ernie
"I figured as much," Ernie said to Bianca's rationale for having those types of cupcakes. He tried to add a rather casual shrug, but still feeling rather awkward at the mere thought of the cupcakes.
For a moment Ernie felt a wave of...dismay...was putting it lightly...but he tried to keep to that when he thought about Zacharias. He took a deep sip of his drink as if to try to block out that thought. It was a better day, or at least a day that he could seem to control himself. He was able to sleep, and even slept in as he had the day off. Those anger management classes did pay off.
"You're welcome," he replied, after controlling that wave of...dismay. He smiled at her. "Justin's my best mate, after all. It's the least I could do for him, really."
