Charlotte: what?
Henry: okay... Don't be mad but number 3 was when you were avoiding me just because you had a dream about me
Charlotte hits him playfully.
Charlotte: why?.... Let me guess, cause for once it was quiet in the mancave?....cause I wasn't there to "politely suggest" things?

Henry: hehehe no....I....ah...actually thought you were kind of adorable.....all flustered.......and nervous.....mixing up your words......and running away from me every chance you got, I had never seen you act like that before.....it was......kind of um........cute.
He smirks at her. A little warm feeling settles at the pit of his stomach as he remembers his best friend's reaction to her dream. It turns his smirk into a smile.
Charlotte: psssh whatever!!!! It was just a dream!!!
Henry: wait did we ever talk about it?
Charlotte: do you want to talk about it?
They both blush
Both: NOPE!!!!
