As much as the conversation was something that he felt was necessary, he had not put any words to his thoughts, and found himself gritting his teeth together as though unwilling to speak at all. He told himself that if she had things she wanted to talk about…Maybe his things wouldn’t seem as bad.

Unless she wanted the opposite. 

Uhm, He started, suddenly more nervous than he’d thought he would be. He would have found her and started the conversation himself, had she not called first. He could just say what he would have said then-

But he hadn’t rehearsed a thing.

I, uh….Well- He stopped himself before he phrased something in a poor way. He shook his head, flustered. It’s just…I’m probably going to leave soon, that’s…That’s sort of why I wanted to talk, He said, with a slight shrug. Is that, uhm…Why you wanted to talk, too? 

Code for: I am completely unprepared for this.
