"You alright, babe?" I asked Max again, arm slung over her shoulders as we walked home from school Thursday afternoon. I looked down at her when she didn't reply. She was watching her feet, silent. She hadn't been talking much to me all day, ever since after she left early for band practice yesturday afternoon.
I stopped walking, catching her hand and pulling her to face me, "Max?"
She looked at my chest, not making eye contact, "I..." she tried, mouth trying to grip words but failing.
I gripped her upper arms with my hands, "What is it?"
She smiled sadly, "it's nothing..." I gave her a look, forcing her to look at my face. She gulped comically. She saw how serious I was and started to come up with an explanation. "It's... um, the thing... I-i'm not sure how to say this..." she trailed off. She thought for a moment, "the dance! I'm really nervous, yeah, that's it... And I don't think I practiced my solo good enough..."
I gave her a questioning look, "you sure?" when she nodded, I sighed. "Max, you'll be fine."
She chuckled nervously, unsure. She continued to look away from me as we kept walking hand in hand.
Why did I have the feeling the dance wasn't the reason Max was acting so strangley?
I'm so sorry it was short, but I will update soon after this, so keep an eye out! Thanks for reading and don't forget to review, please?
