She fiddled with her watch's strap again, because his reaction was kinda weird. It wasn't like she was rushing into things, she just felt bad and his reaction made her seem like she was a terrible person. "Alright then," Katrina said, giving him a small smile. With everything she doubted that he would come over anyways. "Just don't want you to be alone for Christmas, it's a happy time of year," she explained. Being alone staring at the tellie the whole time? Not exactly an ideal way to spend Christmas.
Jamie frowned. It wasn't an expression he was used to so he found it kinda weird, but this time it was necessary. She was looking down at her watch, and looked a bit.. weirded out by his answer. Aw, man. He put out his hand, and lifted her chin up so she was looking at him.
"I'm sorry. I didn't wanna make you feel bad. It's a nice offer, and I will think about it. I just.. don't think you know me well enough to see me in my full state of depression just yet." He smiled at her. Yeah, that was a bit of an exaggeration, but a few days after Christmas it would be the one year anniversary of his twins death. So, in the circumstances, maybe not an exaggeration.
"I don't want to scare you away when I haven't got to know you properly." He winked at her. She was sweet, thinking about his happiness. But he wouldn't be too happy this particular holiday.
