She folded her arms across her chest trying to contain her body heat as much as possible.

No... she wasn't going to say anything, but the word vomit was coming... and there was nothing she could do to stop. "I'm going to tell her it was my fault. That... that I..." she couldn't bring herself to say the word "...you." And nothing else. Not that Isaac had apparently kissed her back, whatever that meant.

And then she shivered again, her eyes going to the ground as they filled with tears yet again

He'd kissed her knowing full well she was just a kid. Almost 4 years younger then himself!

Looking up as Sutton spoke he shook his head "'Twasn' yer fault. I know better, a kiss is a kiss, but returning the kiss...thet's not righ' not when..." Swallowing he looked down again at the snow at their feet "Not when I haf Amelia."


He nodded at Isaac's almost instant response. He knew what he wanted. And he knew what had to be done. Understanding that this was probably going to end their relationship, Ed just didn't have the heart to let him do it alone. "Look, I know I punched you, but we're still friends, aren't we?" He looked at Isaac. "I wanna come with you if you'll let me." Even if it was just to be there afterwards or to step in if Amelia lost it.

Ed listened to her stumbling over her words without turning away from Isaac. He could hear she was cold, but he was more concerned about his best friend right now. Not knowing what to say, Ed looked down at his hands and then glanced up at Sutton. It was an awkward situation for sure.
