He peeked in and smiled. *and just saying, if you arent interested in me, I understand. We can take it slow. I dont want to ruin our friendship.* then he left.

Georgia was now more confused she though that tehy was already friends "uh...." she said and stoked jeff "i barely know him he a friend" she thought and placed him inside and flopped down into the bed. Georgia wounded would love work here or was it just hormones saying to repopulate and would they be happy in a would of death,zombies and no other humans at all

(lol he thinks that theyre just aqquantences in the same boat. he wants to be freinds, and soon, bf and gf. but not until shes ready. it seems confusing, but makes sense if you think about it. he wants everything to be ok for her before he does anything.)

he walked away before sighing and heading to a private, zombie free room and locking the door, before closing it and falling to his knees and starting to cry. he had a lot of issues buried deep in him, and it was starting to surface. his introvertedness, his fear, his worry, and his sadness. but most of all, the fear that he just ruined their freindship and he would be kicked out of the mall. he wouldnt even be upset about losing a bed and a new pet. he would be devastated to lose another human being, one he possibly ruined freindships with.

// alright I thought he had fallen in love with her already d sides relationships confuse Georgia (kinda like me)as she never had a boyfriend as she was a child when the apocalypse started, and there isn't any time to think about a relationship when there is a buch cannibalistic corpses with the case of the munchies


Unfortunately Georgia didn't hear his tears how could she he was in another room with the door locked, she was confused about what was going on and if explained it to her she would understand and not knowing what was really going on on she decided to give him his space assuming he was going to get something or look at the solar panels. Georgia sat up " why are humans so confusing jeff" she asked the Lizard in a rhetorical question to which he responded by looking up at her and falling asleep he definitely was a great conversationalist and rather chatty

(yeah, i get that. i also dont like to rush relationships, so theyre still freinds. hes scared theyre not anymore, though.)

after a while, he rose and wiped his eyes. his eyes were red and his cheeks were puffy, making it very clear he was crying. he thought for a minute, before going back and peeking in. *hey,* he said softly, scared. *can we talk?*

// he would have to do a lot more than that to lose her as a friend so we are good

// I hate it when people rush relationships in roleplays they're not going to just instantly madly falling love at the moment they see each other like some Disney movie (unless its Disney or a yandrere)

Georgia sat up and glanced at him and nodded "alright where would you.........." she said what froze mid sentence family taking in his appearance and almost bolted up on her feet like an alert deer expression showed confusion shock and worry confusion and what made him cry they was crying and obvious worry for him. Georgia frowned upon seeing his scared reaction "w-what happaned why was you crying did something happen did I be something wrong" she said worried was he scared......scared of her

(sweet. he doesnt know that, so ill let him be sad for a bit longer. call it the tiny masochist in me. [and now i realized how bad that sounds. i watch too many horror video games. oof.]

yeah, same. its just not cool.)

he looked down. *no, you didnt do anything wrong. i did.* he gestured to his bed. *here, sit.* he said softly, scared. *please, let me explain. then you can comment. ok? and if you want me out after, i get it.*

// random question what's a masochist?

//i understand having crushes at the site but not full-blown laugh enough is different to a crush

Georgia was still worried about gave a quick nod and walked over to his bed and looked at him as she sat down on the edge of his bed and looked up at him her greyish blue eyes shows obvious concern for the male in front of her but she allow him to explain she was a good listener after all and had been known to listen to the same person for hours "alright i will listen to whatever it is that you want to say to me" she said softly in a soft spoken gentle voice

(i dont think i should answer that. just... google Masochism when your alone, i guess.

yeah, same.)

he nodded, sniffing. *ok, so heres whats happening. you kissed me on the lips. im guessing that was a mistake and you were going for my cheek and missed. i mistook it for romance and tried doing it back, and i think i made things confusing and akward because of that. i wanted to say im sorry. if we want to have a relationship, i want us to know each other well before we go there. if you dont want a relationship, we can be freinds. but if i made things too akward, or you dont want me here, say the word and ill go.* he finished that last bit heavily, his eyes watering as fear filled him, worried she would kick him out then and there.

// now I am worried XD *looks it up* concerned


//Ash or Drake can have a crush on my ic but not love just yet ;) ;)


Georgia let out a breath she hadn't realised you've been holding all this time and then stood up walking silently over towards him not answering a single word until she was right in front of him looking into his eyes and still without a word pulled him into a hug " at least I don't have to explain myself about how that was simple steak I really was going for the cheek don't worry I'm not going to kick you out over something like that" she said while rubbing his back "besides i want to be friends......my actual namw is Georgia, Georgia Goldsmith" she said and smiled as age realised him from the hug
