Andrew just shrugged at October's question. "Maybe you should go talk to Danni." He walked into the room, crossed his arms and watched Addie for a minute. "Dude, I'm not gonna yell at you. He sighed. "What did you guys get in a fight over anyway?" He asked, even though, if Octie was right, that it was over him.
"Right," October said. She exited the room and walked to the lounge, where she was guessing Andrew had made danni stay. She entered the room, and walked over to where Danni was sitting. "Hey," she said. "You feeling... well, calmer yet?"
Adelina swallowed, nervous and not sure how to answer him. "Well.... um..." she hesitated. Her voice was quiet, but still loud enough for him to hear. "It was something stupid... it's not worth telling you." She was obviously stalling, but she really just didn't want to tell him that he was the reason they got into a fight.

"Yeah." Danni said, without turning to look at October. "You mad at me?"
Andrew half grinned. "You sure about that?"
Andrew half grinned. "You sure about that?"
October shook her head. "No," she said. "But you and Addie need to apologize to each other when Andrew leaves. You two also need to figure out how to get along... I don't want to keep breaking up fights between you two. Ok?" Her tone was stern, but it didn't hold any anger. She understood what the fight was about.
Adelina was silent for a few moments once again. "Is what October and Danni keep telling me true?" she asked softly, knowing that she hadn't exactly answered his question; but her question would probably lead to him finding out what the fight was about. "Do you really like me, Andrew?" She wanted to hear it from him. It was confusing her, though... how could he really like someone like her?

Danni nodded. "Do you have to break up fights between Addie and other people alot?" She wasn't asking to be rude, but Octie just seemed used to it.
Andrew simply nodded and said "Yes", because he didn't know what to say.

The twelve-year-old shrugged her shoulders. "Sometimes," she said. "Not all the time, but occasionally. But she usually doesn't get into fist fights... it usually fights using powers or weapons... and those I usually have a hard time trying to stop. At least this was easy to end." October sighed softly, shaking her head. "Does Andrew have to break up fights between you and other people?"
A few different emotions came to Adelina's face when he nodded. Fear and confusion showed the most, though. She didn't let him know that she felt the same... not yet, at least. She really couldn't believe that Danni and October had been telling the truth. "But... why?" she asked softly, almost inaudably. "I've treated you like dirt, Andrew... how can you like me?"

"Shyeah! Like, all the time." Danni said. Not in a long time though."
Andrew walked across the room and took Addie's hands. "I dunno."
Andrew walked across the room and took Addie's hands. "I dunno."
October smiled somewhat. "Well, let's try and not let it happen again. Especially since we're going to be sharing this dorm room for quite a long time," she said.
Adelina's eyes widened somewhat when he took her hands. She felt a bit angry when he said that he didn't know, but that was probably because she had put him on the spot, and because she was still angry about the fight she had just had with Danni. She forced herself to smile and laugh, and shook her head. "You don't know, hm?" she asked. "You're odd..." She shook her head again. "In case October and Danni haven't told you already... I like you too, Andrew."

Danni laughed. "Don't worry-it won't. Unless in the case of self defense."
Andrew grinned. "Yeah, they told me." He paused for a moment. "Addie, will you go out with me?"
Danni laughed. "Don't worry-it won't. Unless in the case of self defense."
Andrew grinned. "Yeah, they told me." He paused for a moment. "Addie, will you go out with me?"
October laughed at Danni's answer. "Of course. Self defense is fine," she said. "I'll talk to Lina about the fight later. She didn't exactly want to be 'lectured' before."
Adelina smiled. It didn't surprise her at all that they had told him. She nodded her head when he asked if she would go out with him. "Of course I will, Andrew," she said.
