"Do you want to talk about it?" Ellie whispered after a few seconds of silence. She was running her left hand fingers through Billie's hair while her right hand slowly caressed Billie's arm.
Billie sighed and unwrapped her arms around the girl, "It was just stupid." Billie looked up and tears started to prick in her eyes, "And now people probably think I'm stupid."
"No, you are not stupid." Ellie shook her head, "It's okay if you forgot the lyrics. This happens sometimes." Billie only nodded but clearly not believing Ellie's words.
"My mom said you were solving some problems, something happened?" Billie cleared her throat and changed the subject.
