[ For the first time since she woke up with memories of home, Allison actually finds herself smiling in a completely, 100%, absolutely true way. And it's not a small one, like she's smiled before, but it's actually fairly wide. She had laughed a little with Scott at the Christmas party and she'd been able to lighten up some with Lydia, but... This feels like a huge step. And there's a twisting in her stomach that reminds her not only of how she's felt numerous times around Scott, but also how she felt when Isaac and her were talking on Christmas. At least when he was complimenting her and embarrassing her.
Thankfully, though, he can't see it because Allison doesn't really want to acknowledge what it means. She just wants to believe that she's thankful they're still friends, that they've come to this point, that they care about each other despite the complications in their lives. That's all she can handle right now. ]
I'll try.
[ Because if there's one thing Allison can't promise, it's that she won't feel bad about something or be too hard on herself. ]
I just wanted to make sure you knew because, like you said, I do care about you. You're my friend and I want you to be happy.
[ And she feels guilty that she's standing in the way, but she's going to try to focus on Isaac saying that it was his choice and he was doing it out of respect for her. ]
But I'll make you a deal; I'll never bring it up again if you buy me lunch to go with that coffee when you get back.
