**Joelie's POV**

     Tony and I finally finished his suit. It's been a few months since that day at Alkali Lake. Tony and I have become quite close, but I almost feel bad about it. He's a jerk at times, but other times he's as sweet as can be.
Tony lightly bumps my shoulder. "Hey, what are you thinking about?"
"Nothing in particular. What's going on up here?" I tap his temple lightly. He smiles softly and grabs my hand before I can pull it away.
     "Tony, what's up?" I ask. He's not usually like this, he's always a bit stand offish. It's weird to see him like this.
     "Nothing much. Just, you're really pretty, you know that?" He says, looking at me with a smile I haven't seen from him before.
    "Th-thank you." I stutter. I'm sure I'm blushing. I look away from him.
     "What is it?" Tony asks, letting go of my hand.
     "Nothing." I say, ignoring the feeling that's rising in my chest. I turn back to him. "Nothing at all." I kiss his cheek quickly and head to the room that he's given me. "Night."
     "Night Jojo."
