  1. Their eyes were deep and curious, full of life. "Just one minute..."
  2. They held it firmly. "Hm... I think I can still do this, but it'll be harder than it used to be. Look into my eyes."
  3. "I'm just confused is all." Erin considered for a moment. "I have an idea, here." They held out their hand as though for him to take.
  4. "No, it's fine. I'm just trying to figure out something... concrete, I guess?" They grimaced. "Sorry, this is probably really awkward for you. I'm awful and this stuff."
  5. "Anything a bit more specific? Like... what would you say attraction feels like?"
  6. "Can you give it a shot? What kind of feeling do you have that made you want to... you know."
  7. Erin continued to watch him. "What is it that you feel?"
  8. "...I still think you're handsome. I just don't know what I'd notice if I had those kinds of feelings for someone. And It doesn't make much sense that someone would have them for me."
  9. "...Oh." Erin looked even more confused. "Are you sure?" @Experience
  10. "Really, it's okay. Just... what exactly did you mean when you said you liked me?"
  11. "I think... we misunderstood each other. It's okay." Erin looked beyond confused.
  12. Erin jolted away, astonished. "What?"
  13. Erin just smiled back at him.
  14. "Yeah!" They smiled at him. "I don't see why that's so surprising."
  15. "I like you too. You've been really kind so far, considering that we just met."
  16. "Yeah, you told me that, didn't you?" They smiled.
  17. Erin put their hand on his. "It's okay. And you don't have to say anything now, if it's something too difficult."
  18. "I'm 16 or 17, I think. Why?"
  19. "Sure, go ahead!"
  20. "That's good. And you've done the same for me."
  21. "Well... not really. I've just been trying to help people where I can."
  22. "I don't know."
  23. "I guess I could. I've been on my own for a long time. Being cursed... or, er, sick in the way that I was kept me pretty ostracized from others."
  24. Erin began to run their hands through Mike's hair idly.
