[ he glances back at her, a half amused smirk on his face. ]

Basically, I'm hungry. C'mon, stop worrying.

[fledges]

[She rolls her eyes.]

The only thing I'm worried about is that cowlick you're getting.

[Her worrying switch is kind of locked in the "on" position right now, unfortunately.]

One, stop lying, especially about my hair.

Two, you seriously need a break.

[ yeah, he freaked out at her. he knows. that's why he's just gonna get her some noodles. aggressively tell her to chill out.

totally normal apologies. ]

[fledges]

We all need a break. Although—

[She flips her sunglasses down from her head over her eyes. She gets that he's apologizing, in that "I don't know how to apologize" way.]

[overrate]

Yeah?

[ there's a beat. ]

Well, we give each other worse.

[Kate's lips quirk up a bit when she realizes what he's doing.]

Yeah? Did something else happen?

[overrate]
