Viva didn't really know. Why she run out like that she just had to get away. She couldn't take one more second of being he "sister"

She wasn't even sure why she said yes to a date she didn't want to go on.

But the more she thought about it, she realised it was a good idea, she knew she wasn't going to get over him overnight.

And she doubted that she would like John Dory as anything else but a friend. But she had to try if not for her self then for her friendship with clay.

Because her feelings were getting out of hand.

She had just bailed on him to go and get he's bother ready for their "date".

Was she being unfair to John Dory what if he really liked her. And she was just using him to get over he's bother, oh my troll was she a terrible person.

No she thought, she did like John Dory he was handsome and despite everything that clay had told her about he's bother he seams like a decent troll.

She was trying to get over clay.. so if she went in to the date with an open mind, and willing to get to know him

She wasn't exactly leading him on , she was just a girl who liked someone who was willing to try and like someone else.

Though she doted that would ever happen, no matter how nice he was or how much he likes her how pathetic is that..

She wondered if she would ever stop liking him.
One day he might meet someone else, she might like him as much as her

The only difference would be that he would actually feel the same they'd get married probably have 14 kids like Bruce. Spend the rest of they're life's in love they'd be happy..

Viva had told her self that she would be happy for them but a part of her wondered if she would. Did she just want to be so she could be a better person.

Would she actually be bitter and jealous all the ugly feelings she never wanted to feel toward anyone let alone her best friend.

Just then she saw clay laying down under a tree. He looked so cute and so peaceful that decide to go over For a closer look.

Wen She get over to him She look down at he's Beautiful Face . She  couldn't help but run my hands though he's green har.

Then after a little bit She decided to braid he's hair.

As She was braiding the hair She saw him start to wake up . But braiding was normal for them so neither of them was were really startled.

Hey...clay said sleepily opening one of he's eyes .
Hey clay did ya have a nice sleep, She say
Umm,

He suddenly got nervous. And looked up at viva

Yh..it was.... a uh good sleep.

Well good she said, as she finished he's hair looking down at he's face . She couldn't help but linger as if  he was a mosaic

A smile came on he's face as he catches her eyes on him ,

She something you miss viva,
said trying to hide the humour in he's voice.

Her face flushed but she quickly reigned her composure returning he's smile.

with a slight smirk as she placed some of the flowers that surrounded it them in the braids . 

Well I am looking at you so..., she her next words said as sweetly as possible.  yess,

He's face was flaming at that point. Leaving flustered
And embarrassed . But the two of them laughed together.

She would have felt sorry for him but seeing that he had just tried to get the very same reaction out of her. She just couldn't find it in her self to. But there was something else she was sorry for and now was as good a time as any other.

Hey clay.. she started as the laughing died down. Getting uncharacteristically serious. Taking he's hand in hers

Wow  Now viva you know I'm the serious one, he tried to mask he's nervousness with humour. As he began to sit up higher on the tree brunch to come Eye level with her. 

She smiled at he's attempt, before continuing

I'm sorry.. about well bailing on you earlier and I don't really have much of an excuse.(at not one she could ever tell him) but I am sorry.

You don't need to apologise about that I mean we are best friends but that doesn't mean we have to spend every Second of every day together. He said nonchalantly as if it was nothing

But She didn't know why. She felt a little Hurt but this was clay her best friend. Even if he's words were a little harsh he wouldn't have said anything to hurt her on purpose. Would he ? And even if he did it's not like she didn't deserve it she was the one who walked out on there plans.

And she was the one who apologised with no explanation on why she had ran out. And he was right there only "BEST FRIENDS" and best friends didn't have to spend every day together.

Even if she wanted to. She decided to let it go as she laugh it of 

Well good I'm glad you're not upset I mean

Before she could stop her self she said

I love having poppy around but I can get how having your sister around all the time can be a little annoying ..

Why would she say it. Viva had a neat way of always hurting her self. Usually it just because she was clumsy. And was always hitting in to stuff but no this time it was her own words.

She  forced a smile on her face. As she felt the pain in her chest. Her mind repeating her words and what she had implied over and over and over again..Why oh why did she say that of all thing what was wrong with her ..

Viva..

She felt like running away again maybe she could go..

Viva.

Clay finally got though to her.
