Astro skidded around to a corner to Cora, arms crossed over her chest and walking huskily away from him. "Cora!" Astro called. Though obviously hearing him, Cora didn't flinch. Astro silently rocketed up to the roof and made his way over to her. Cora stopped for a moment, looking back. When she saw nothing, she sighed and turned back, only to come face to face with an up side down Astro. She gasped in fright. Astro laughed. She huffed and pushed his face away, causing him to loose balance and fall onto the ground. "Omf!" he moaned and rubbed the back of his neck. Cora turned to him, hands on hips. "I'm NOT in the mood, Astro!" she turned to walk off but Astro quickly got to his feet.
"Cora! I DID NOT kiss Zibby!" Cora stopped walking and looked up at him with a 'REEEEEEEAAAAAAALLLLLLLY NOW' look.
"SHE kissed ME! I swear!" Astro put his had on her shoulder. She looked away. "Look, I know I haven't really been on the fair side with you guys in the past few days-"
"Haven't been FAIR? Astro, I've never seem you like this before! Ever since you've hung out with Bruss and the Blondies you've lied, you've rejected us for them, cheated!" Cora suddenly shot back. Astro stepped back and took a moment to finally realize how he has behaved in the previous days.
"I…I'm sorry." Cora looked, for the first time since their kiss, deep into Astro's beautiful, deep brown eyes. Astro could lie when he had the technical on his side, but when it came to true emotion, he had no chance. And Cora knew he deeply meant his apology. But still she turned away. "Sorry isn't good enough Astro. It's almost home time, I gotta go." And with that, she turned away, leaving Astro staring and the bell ringing.
