He'd thought he was about to become an uncle!
Suddenly, the table between them seemed like a nice place to bang his head on. How terribly embarrassing. How could he have thought so lowly of his fairy godchild? He had to admit, though, the relief was probably greater than the shame he felt at that moment.

AHEM-HEM-HEM.
Right, so let's forget Eddy had totally just made a slip-up there, shall we?
He looked up again with a new expression, looking ever so calm and casual. Yeah, he totally hadn't jumped to conclusions. Nope. Not at all. He'd just play it cool and hope Ella wouldn't interrogate him too much.

But she was already questioning him again.
What did he think? What happened last time he'd assumed marriage between Ella and Alec?

Edric crossed his arms and narrowed his eyes at the girl across from him. He had a feeling he knew where this was going, though he was still too confused and honestly a little wary to make more assumptions. "Are you trying to tell me something, Ells?"

It most certainly wasn't nothing. Ella could tell by the way he was avoiding eye contact and that only made her more curious. What on earth had he convinced himself was going on with her? And then he had put his ogre mask back on and was acting like all this was a normal get together which was just as weird. She narrowed her eyes at him and raised an eyebrow, wondering what was up. He was being so strange.

Ella mirrored Edric's actions and a faint smile played on her lips, deciding on how to best put this. She wanted him to understand but not hate her. She really hoped he wouldn't hate her for this.

"I'm trying to tell you that you always seem to think the worst about me." It was true. He seemed to just assume she was off making irrational decisions during her free time. "And you shouldn't because I'm not a little kid anymore." Nodnod. "You shouldn't underestimate me either." And she picked up the letter, her smile widening slightly.
