"Why? Is it because I'm so good looking, you don't trust yourself alone with me?" He smirks.
"Wow, So you have a bad grasp on Literature and reality?" I Feign, yet with an embarrassed smile on my face.

"So, are we cool... can we talk about anything else, right? Since we're... kind of friends." I wait for him to swallow all the pop corns he ate.
"Yeah. Why not?" He says nodding his head.
"Cool. So like Winter has this huge crush on me--" Blaze chokes on his drink before I could even finish. I quickly get up and get him water, passing the glass to him and he immediately gulps all the water.
"You' okay?" I hold my face with both hands in shock. His forehead vein was literally popping out.
He lets out the last cough and sits back, relaxing his beating heart and wiping a tear. According to a human body, many of the same nerve fibres that are involved in the actions of crying or laughing are also involved in the coughing reflex. Therefore, it is possible that these actions could "spill over" into a cough.
Gosh. I just turned into a science freak on that one.
I quickly erase my memory and focus on 'dying' Blaze.
"You' okay?" I sit next to him and rub his back.
"Yeah. Yeah. I'm good." He rests his head on the couch and shuts his eyes.
"Okay! So, as I was saying... Winter mentioned that---"
"Yeah, I heard you. Winter has a crash on you." He says in a gruff voice before lightly coughing again.
"Oh." I cock an eyebrow, "You sure you okay?"
"I'm fine, Lisa."
Lisa? He hardly calls me that.
So, I let it go and move to the sofa I was sitting on. I don't mention anything more about Winter. He needs to breath and I'm busy telling him about a boy.
And why would I do that? Yes, we grew closer but it's too early to be talking about such things. I'm just overwhelmed that a boy would like someone like me.
Winter is a good guy, he doesn't trouble or cause trouble. And the thought of him liking me is just... I don't know? Shocking?
I look at Blaze and notice him staring at me with eyes I can't describe. But they look sad and frustrated at the same time. So, I break the gaze and look down.
At first, I was never able to read Blaze's expressions, but now, I'm able to look deep and find something. I shouldn't get used to it, he still hides them from me.
"Why would Winter like someone like you?" He breaks the silence.
"Excuse me?" I scrunch my face.
That's insulting.
He shakes his head, "No! Not in a bad way. But... does he really like you for you?"
I furrow my eyebrows, "Blaze, why would you say that? And besides, I don't know. This is new to me too."
