"No, please don't be sorry," he said, slipping down to sit next to her. "Avice... I really like you."
"I didn't like it either," she admitted. "Not at all, and I'm sorry for putting you in that situation. It wasn't fair of me."
"No, but I wasn't honest with you," he said, taking her hands. "Listen... you mean so much to me. I just... I don't know. I was scared, I guess."
She watched the ground, then looked up at him. "You shouldn't be scared... I just," she paused, and sighed. "I don't know. I get all shaky and excited around you. I'm just confused."
