"I'm here to help!"
Daniel closed the door behind her.
"Great! We need more arms to carry things."
Daniel smiled and kissed her cheek.
"Good. Hi, Walter."
She smiled warmingly at me. I hated it.
"Hi."
I said awkwardly, turning back to the boxes. I started marking which boxes where kitchen things.
"What's wrong with him?"
I heard Katie ask in a whisper to Daniel.
"He's... not good with people."
"Oh. Okay.."
Rose came trotting down the hall and pulled to a stop at the sight of Katie.
"Oh, hello. Who are you?"
"Hi! I'm Katie. Daniel's girlfriend. Are you Walter's little sister?"
"I am. My name's Rose. Daniel's girlfriend, huh?"
I watched her walk up to Katie and look up into her eyes. Katie was obviously curious as to what she was doing.
"So you're the person keeping Walter and Daniel apart."
I started to gag on the saliva in my mouth. I stood up from my crouch position and spun around. I dropped the marker onto the box and lunged at Rose. I wrapped an arm around her waist and her chest, picking her up and swinging her over my shoulder.
"So-Sorry.."
I blushed deeply. I smiled even though I was shaking so hard.
"Ignore her- She's tired."
"Walter-"
Daniel started calmly.
"I'm gonna... I'm gonna take her home real fast. I'll be back real soon."
"Walter I'm not-"
Rose protested.
"Hush.."
I hissed.
"Walter you don't have to."
"No I'm sorry Daniel. Katie's here so she can help. I promise it'll only be a few minutes."
I smiled one of the fakest smiles ever. It literally felt like my heart was going to explode.
She said that oh my god she said that.."Alright.."
Daniel agreed, all though he looked like he didn't feel okay with this at all. I gave one more smile before pushing past them both.
"Few minutes! Promise."
I gripped the doorknob and ripped the door from its hinges. I slammed it shut behind me and breathed deeply.
"Luckily you're light."
I said to Rose.
"Walter did I say something? You know this is going to ruin my schedule!"
"Sorry Rose. You can't just tell people I like Daniel, okay?"
"Why not? It's true isn't it?"
"Yeah but not everyone is like you and Daniel, Rose. Some people get really upset."
"Like dad?"
"Yeah. Just like dad. And Katie might not like it if she learns I like her boyfriend."
