“Because everything needs to be perfect. Every shot is a moment frozen in time and we can’t get that moment back.” Alfred shrugs at her. There was a lot of pressure on him. Granted, he knows he puts a lot of it on himself. “If you don’t get it I can’t really explain it to you.” @killthemslcwly​

Kendall narrowed her eyes, a small flash of anger in her eyes when Alfred muttered under his breath. “You think I’m lying to you? Do you think I said that to try and let you down easy?” She took a breath to try and calm herself down. “I have had a devastating track record when it comes to romance, to say that I am damaged goods would be an understatement, I’m not saying it’s complicated because I don’t want to hurt your feelings, I am saying it’s complicated because I have been through some serious shit, and I didn’t want to go into it.” She took another steadying breath. “I feel like you think that I’m not going to actually put thought into this.” 

Sam thought for a moment, handles moving to find a knot in her friend’s back, and putting a little extra pressure there. “I don’t see how a job taking pictures can be stressful,” she said. It probably wasn’t right for her to compare his current job with her past job. Now, Sam was a bartender and Alfred knew that, he didn’t know what she did before that. “What’s so stressful about photography?” 

“Kendall, would you like to go to dinner sometime?” Alfred asks. There was no going back now. She was right that at least now he will know where they stand and how she feels. @killthemslcwly

“I mean I am sort of trying to do that at the moment. It’s harder than you think when she’s completely oblivious.” He says as he looks over at her. @killthemslcwly​

“Well, have you tried flat out telling her?” Yeah, completely oblivious was right. “I mean, like just saying, hey, I have feelings for you, would you like to go out with me sometime?” Kendall shrugged. “If worst comes to worse, she doesn’t feel the same way, and you can know that and move on to someone who’s worth your time.”

Sam nodded once, then motioned with her hand. “Alright, turn around then,” she said. “What got you so sore anyway?”
