[CLOSED] i can't give you what you want..

Rhys looked back over at Seth, but his mind was still on Cala. Why was she being so shy? He was willing to bet she was a happy, hyper person. And he wasn't a betting man. "You know that questioning my weird exclamations is kind of like a loaded question." He teased, smiling at him. He took another drink of his water before he sat it back on the table.

Seth laughed. "I know I know," He huffed, smiling. "Eh, I have practice with the guys today after the school for the talent show..." He bit his lip, and despite every laugh and smile, it hadn't been long, they were still so broken. And he had to keep anyone from knowing Cala was not under foster care.

"I'll be back." She got up to go talk to Tony for a moment and ask how Zoey was.

Seth chuckled. "She likes you, man. Like, a lot, you know?"

Rhys just smiled at his comment, glancing over at him. "I figured as much." He said, watching her talk to Tony. He chewed on his lip, reaching over for another fry. "I always thought it was weird, having someone like you.. Cause they're either shy and reserved or loud and stupid." He looked back over at Seth, biting his lip. "I dunno. Maybe I kinda like her too. I've known you guys like.. forever." He took a bite of is fry, sitting the soggy end on his tray.

Seth smiled faintly. "Maybe I shouldn't say it as her older brother, but go for it," He teased. "Why don't you take her out and go hang or something today when I stay after? I can even spot you some money if you need it." Not that he had much. But he would give anything to have his sister and a close friend a little bit happier than they were.

Rhys faked a sigh, throwing his hands up. "See? There goes my plans to watch paint dry. All week long I've waited to watch paint dry and you go and hook me up with your sister. What a terrible friend." He teased, getting up to toss the rest of the fries away. He hated the soggy ones. He sat back down beside him, pulling out his wallet. "Nah, I got cash. But here's the five I owed you." He said, handing him the five dollars before he pocketed his wallet again. "She's not gonna go all.. girly on me, is she?"

[seth joshua grant]

Seth laughed, took it with a thanks and shook his head. "You're a dork," He teased, grinning crookedly. "And Cala, girly? She can be when she wants, but she's not afraid to go out and have some fun," He wrinkled his nose. "And she'll warm up to you as soon as I'm out of the picture, just call me and I can pick you guys up later."

"But your sister likes it." He teased, leaning back in his seat. He picked up his bottle, reading over the label. "I don't know. I always avoid girls.." He shrugged. He refused to say why. He always had. Even Asher couldn't draw it out of him. "Maybe I'll just take her to the bridge and make out with her." He teased. But that was about as unlikely as Monroe being civilized. He did think about kissing her, though. A lot. Especially when he stayed over at their house with Seth. He finally drew himself out of his thoughts, looking over at Seth. "I don't have a phone."

[seth joshua grant]

Seth laughed. "I might have panicked if you weren't the one saying that," He teased gently. "I know you don't, but she does..for now.. We aren't going to be able to pay the phone bills after they expire this month.." He bit his lip, then tried shrugging in indifference, hiding his feelings. Ge didn't like being unhappy. But it was getting hard to hide. "Just...some subjects are real sensitive with her right now, okay?" He messed with his own bottle, rolled his shoulder.

"Yeah, I know.. I'm not gonna say anything." He said quietly, picking at the label on his bottle. He wouldn't admit he was nervous, even if he was. He had known her for awhile, but that didn't make it any easier. He chewed on his lip, wondering if he should go ask her now, or wait until after school. "I don't get why she'd like me, though." He said, looking over at Seth. "I'm gonna hook you up with someone, now. Just because you're trying to get me with your sister." He teased.

[seth joshua grant]

Seth chuckled. "Why not? You're charming enough." He smirked. "She's always had a thing for you." He smiled faintly, ran a hand through his hair. "This..girl..took us in the night I crashe the other car. We were just going to sleep in the Cobra an she's been letting us stay with her. I don't know.. She's sweet. But I can't figure out if she's interested.."
