He waited for her and then paced along the small space speaking fast as he did when he was on a role, tangent, or making an argument. "Look...I'm not going to just ignore this as you seem to want to. This has to stop. I've known you all my life I'd put you before anyone and everyone and I have. You're not my only friend but you're my best friend and my girlfriend." Note he didn't use was...well he hadn't sent that letter off to his mum either. He didn't want was. "I don't care if you don't like Brody she's my friend. I don't get all crazy about you still talking to Theo...but I swear if you're making me choose you or her I'll choose you. I...I will..." he slowed down and turned to look at her finally. "I can't let Ivan be right. I don't WANT Ivan to be right."
As he stopped talking he realized that a lot of what he had said hadn't been thought as he said them and how right they were. If Fia asked him to choose...he would. But as far as he was concerned Brody was just his next closest friend and that was it.
Fia walked inside and quickly took to her seat as Miles demanded. Now she was really in trouble. His voice, his actions...she'd never seen anything like it before. Her eyes roamed with him as he paced the floor and got what he needed off of his chest.
"No you don't go crazy when Theo is around," she said as she leaned back in her seat and crossed her arms to her chest. "You just call him names to his face." But then he stated that he would make the ultimate sacrifice and not be Brody's friend any more. Did he understand that he was asking FIA this?
She sighed as she couldn't go with her first instinct of OKAY! Bye-bye Brody!

But she was not that cold, at least not yet. That was not the way this was supposed to happen and she was NOT about to make him do that. "You can have your friends just as I can have my friends," she calmly stated and continued. "But I'm tired of turning around and now..." Grrrrr! She was NOT going there!
Yes she was.
"I just feel like it's being rubbed in my face every time. I'm not asking you to not be her friend I just feel like...she might take your 'over-friendliness' too far and think that you want more than just a friendship." Yeah! How many guy friends give their GIRL friends a gift? And it just haddd to be those ear-bobs that she kept showing off!
