he couldn't believe that he allowed the other to talk him into something like this. even so, he liked to think that this kind of proved to the other that he could have some fun. "alright, you convinced me. i jumped in with my clothes on," he paused, looking around before glancing back at henry, "what now? or did you just want to see if i'd do it in the first place?"

stepping out of his comfort zone wasn't something that he normally did, especially when it came to drawing attention to himself. though, he had convinced himself that if he stood in the back and did his best then maybe no one would pay attention to him. unfortunately, that wasn't the case and the instructor seemed to want to use him as an example. "i-uh, i think maybe you could find a partner that is more suitable. i mean-" his cheeks turned dark red, "i just mean someone who knows what they're doing."

eddie was beginning to think that jemma forgot about their agreed upon plans to meet at bubble time. he wasn't the type to hold it against her if she did and it's not like it would be a wasted trip since he planned on grabbing himself something either way. though, when he heard the door chime indicating someone had walked in and he smiled softly before standing up from his seat. "there you are. i thought maybe you forgot."

when do you know if you've said too much? i mean, at what point does it mean you've make things weird? i've decided i'm pretty bad with social cues and well, i guess i just need to know for future reference so i can stop making myself look stupid.

you know how most people are stoked for the summer weather? i can't say i'm one of those people, especially since i spend a lot of my time outside checking on the animals. like, you can always put more layers on but taking them off isn't an option unless i want to scare the children and land myself in a jail cell.

if there was one routine that eddie tried to keep up, it was his bi-weekly boys night with his closest friend. donnie was someone he didn't expect to get so close to but it was basically impossible for the two of them not to get along after meeting at a comic convention. he carried the boxes of pizza toward the coffee table with two beers in his other hand. "they had a cool limited edition comic at the shop today. it was entirely too expensive for me and it was practically brand new. i think you would have liked to see it."

"-can i ask you for a weird favor?" he finally asked the girl across from him. eddie trusted that feyza wouldn't laugh at him. after all, she was seat and kind of awkward...she would understand, right? "can i like...pretend to ask you out and you tell me whether or not i sound like a loser? i'm...thinking about asking someone out but i don't know how to do it and i don't want them to laugh at me. i really don't even if if i will but if i get the practice then i could use if if it ever comes up."
