Aaron rubs the back of his neck once before answering.
"It's nothing."
My brows pull together.
"I just think you should have some time to yourself," he adds.
"Without…muvh distractions."
I let out a short breath.
"My friends aren't a distraction."
"I know."
"Then what's the problem?"
Another small pause as hr looks at me, then away…..then back again.
I eye him suspiciously when he doesn't say anything. Okay now I know it's probably nothing because I know Aaron wouldn't hurt me…not intentionally. In the little while I've been here he hass somehow turned to a friend…. My friend and I trust him no doubt but...
"Okay," I say slowly.
"…what's going on?"
"Nothing."
I give him a long look that he holds for a second, then he says, calmer this time,
"I just want you to get out. Clear your head."
I study his face, trying to see if there's something I'm missing.
But he's good.
After a few seconds, I exhale and drop my arms.
"Whatever," I mutter.
"If you say so."
