His footsteps sounded funny, and after a moment she decided it had something to do with that pain he was feeling. &#8220;I hit on you, and you\u2019re gay, and I was really drunk. I\u2019m \/such\/ an idiot sometimes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;That obvious that I\u2019m not too into girls, huh?&#8221; he said, trying to make her feel better and laugh. Gingerly he sat down and tried to coax her out from under the pillow.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Come now, it\u2019s alright. You hit on a lot of people last night, you weren\u2019t sober, it\u2019s fine, I\u2019m not mad.&#8221; he tried to reassure her, not liking that she was beating herself up over this.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Whoops. Should she not have noticed? Sometimes it was hard to separate things anybody paying attention could figure out from things only the ability to look into their heart could reveal. Summer shoved the pillow up against the headboard and looked up at the guy with one green eye.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You,&#8221; she said, &#8220;are a remarkable person.
