I turned around slowly, stopping in the doorway. "Umm hi." I said when an awkward silence began to build between us.
"Hi, I umm just wanted to thank you again for helping me out earlier. I appreciate it."
"Yeah no problem." He grew quiet again so I took the hint that maybe I should leave.
"Wait. Do you want to hang here, with me, for awhile." He asked with a nervous smile spread across his face. "I mean only if you want to. It just gets lonely all alone, ya know."
I smiled. "Yeah I guess I could stay for awhile."
"Cool. I'm Nick by the way." I tried not to laugh at his introduction.
"Yeah I know ho you are. I'm a big fan. I'm Madelyn, but you can call me Maddy." I stuck my hand out in front of him expecting him to shack it but instead he pulled me over to his bed and hugged me.
"It's great to meet you Maddy." I giggle at his attempt to hug me as all his wire were making it difficult. "Sorry about that."
"Oh, no its fine." I smiled, just giddy from our friendly embrace. It grew quiet as I sat on the chair next to Nick's bed. I could feel him staring at me as I watched some old movie that was playing.
