"I didn't respond because I was still mad it wouldn't have done any good except for start another argument."
He looked up at Fia and placed his hands on his lap, they felt weird not having the weight of the watch on his wrist like he had had for months now. "I...I know you don't like Brody..." he started this time looking at his hands and not at her. "And I know you think she's up to something but she's not. I swear. I'm tired of this argument. This same one all the time. Even if she was I'd like to think that you trust me enough to know better than to think I'd fall for it." He looked up and met her eyes finally, "I'd like to think that Ivan's wrong and that a relationship doesn't change everything but so far...I can't tell. I don't know where my Fia is anymore." Things have changed as much as he had tried to keep them the same and the outrageously jealous side she's been having just didn't appeal to him.
Fia didn't move from the doorway. She was NOT about to sit down because obviously he was still upset. She listened to his speech while looking out the train window at all the students making their way to the end of another school year. She sniffed as she gnawed on her lower lip. There was something about Brody she didn't like and for some reason, she just couldn't put it past her. And now they were gift givers and she was supposed to just play like everything was okay? Fine!
"It's the summer now. No more school. No more students." No more stress. No more BRODY! At least after this train wreck was over, she wouldn't have to see the PUFFIE for a few months. FINE.WITH.HER. "Look, you can go back to your book. I just needed to get that off of my chest."
