James didn't say anything but listened to her and watched her. "To be honest I've only seen you twice since we came back, it kind of felt like we were less than friends at times," he whispered and looked down at his pants. Well it was the truth. If you were dating weren't you supposed to be inseparable like Pal had been. "Maybe...we just started this a little too late," he said with a half sigh. And it had been really awkward.

He caught her look at him and nodded, "The bestest." He sat there staring into the fire wanting to give her a hug because she looked sad but at the same time not wanting to be turned into a toad or something.
