Poor Mason. I suppose it's for the best. We aren't 'allowed' to get involved with humans. I don't like that rule. Never did. Stupid damn rules, why do they-
"Georgia! What're you doing home at this hour of the day?"
"Daisy, I'm sick. Leave me alone."
"Well! I think you need some happy pills. You're always so glum and depressing. You truly bring down my mood, dear. Truly."
"You're hurting my head."
"What? My voice is beautiful, Georgia! How could you say something so hurtful? I remember, one time, me and this young man, maybe you'd know the name,-"
I stood, carrying the pillow and walked up the stairs. I opened a door and plopped on the bed.
"Uh, hello."
Mason's tone was definitely surprised. And enraging my headache.
"Bunking in your room today."
"Wha- Why? You can't stay in here."
"Daisy won't bother me in here. I'm staying."
Mason stared, confused.
"But…Georgy, really. When you leave, what's Daisy gonna think?"
"Same old. I'm depressing and you're a sex fiend."
"…What if Rube finds out?"
"Same old. Yell at us. Or ignore us with his glares."
"…I don't want that…"
"Aw, come on. Nothing will change. They'll act the same."
Mason sighed and stood in the corner of the room. There was an awkward silence, which was disturbing.
"So, how did that girl feel?"
"She agreed."
"Oh…"
There goes my chance. Chance? Pfft. What chance did I ever have?
"So, are you going to ask her out?"
"I dunno."
"What would you do if another girl asked you out?"
"Well."
Why did I even ask…
"Most likely turn her down."
"Really?"
"Yeah. What about you, Georgy?"
"Huh?"
"Aw, come on, I know you like someone."
Mason stared. I felt like he could see right through me. If I lied, he'd completely see.
"Not a chance."
"You do like someone, I know."
"I meant not a chance with him."
"Oh…Why is that?"
"Well, it'd be a little awkward. Besides, he's not exactly…as bright or anything."
"…Oh…right. I see."
Wait, that was way to big of a hint.
"But, you, Mason, aren't like that. At least not anymore, I mean, once you got clean you changed a lot and you-"
"-You're rambling."
She totally just called me a moron, and smart in the same thought.
Mason grinned.
"Is he cute?"
"Personality or looks?"
"Both."
"Well, personality, he's…well. Him. Looks aren't bad."
Mason's grin got wider. He must love seeing me vulnerable…
Haha! I'm cute, and smart…and dumb…Oh well. I'm cute!
"Well, what if someone besides him asked you out?"
"Like who?"
"I dunno. Someone average…hmm. What about me?"
Err. I can't jump up and say, yes. But if I don't then there go my chances…
"I dunno. Depends on my mood."
Errm. Yesh.
