“I think I’ll have to pass.” He responded, casting her a weak smile. “You stopped crying. I’m glad.”

Quinn flashed him a smile back and shrugged, nudging him with her elbow. “It was worth a shot…and..yeah. Thanks.”

“I can always provide kool-aid if I get kitchen duty, but other than that, no helping out for me.”

He looked at his feet, kicking the ground with his toes lightly.

“You’re pretty you know…”

“A suitable contribution.” Quinn wiped her eyes again, this time dwelling a bit with her finger to get a bit of eyelash out. Thinking of it now, her makeup must have been a mess…more so than usual. Then he called her pretty. Which, naturally, drew a confused and somewhat concerned look from Quinn…as well as a quick glance behind her, just to make sure he was talking to her.

”..Thanks, Evan.”

“Then I’ll be sure to try and do that.” He smiled again, black lines spreading wide on his face as several teeth flashed for a brief moment before they vanished again. Glancing up at her, he took a step closer to her, watching her for a moment before he quickly wrapped his arms around her. Hugging himself against her for a quick second, he made a small noise before releasing her and taking a large step away, not meeting her gaze.

“You don’t have to thank me for telling the truth.”

Tina sighed—this kid was really awkward, wasn’t he? She stepped forward and wrapped her arms around him. “For cheering me up, too.” 
There was a moment of hesitation before she planted a kiss on his cheek—making sure it would leave a nice red lipstick mark.

For the first time, Evan’s white cheeks turned bright red. If not from the lipstick, but the blood rushing through him. His eyes were wide, and he was trembling in her arms. ‘I-I-I-It was n-n-n-n-no p-p-problem…“

He gulped, slowly wrapping his arms around her, eyes slowly raising to meet her own.
