They made it back to the first floor and she tossed the glass between both hands, frowning lightly at it and absolutely refusing to look at Bert. He was just toying with her because he was still upset, she sort of had this theory that he might be out of options now, so he had to default to making fun of her, without knowing that it really sucked to hear the guy you liked complimenting you while not really meaning much of it. Because they were just friends and all.
"You know, I was going to say that if you wanted a break from Alain my room isn't very far off. But it really does sound like all those sweets have gone to your head. My presence certainly can't cause any of this by itself."
And, look at that! Her first attempt at ... Uh, something. Retaliation? Maybe not since it took nearly all the strength in her to say that much. That embarrassing redness was now creeping to her ears and neck.
