"7:30, it starts." He mumbled distractedly, without relizing that he had actually said anything at all. Liam's insides felt like they each had a pulse of their own. I mean, it was that sort of throbbing your body got whenever you were suddenly upset about something... Minutes ago, he'd been fretting over her comments on what she supposed his life was like, and now it was just the fact that she was apologizing for something so small that probably shouldn't have bothered him -- but had. The last thing he wanted to do was screw up, again... because he felt that if he did, he'd surely lose her forever. There would be no hope for him. If he lost Tex, it'd just be another marker to prove that Liam really did suck in the 'works well with others' catagory. Slowly, he let his fingers trail into his touselled brown hair before he dropped them to his sides and lifted his gaze to meet hers. Yikes, this was harder then he'd thought. Being observant sucked, though Liam as he noticed the tell-tale signs of hurt 'cross Tex's expression. He'd hurt her, but hadn't meant to... He'd just... God, he didn't know. This friend thing was difficult, when you were so out of practice. "No... Um, don't say sorry. I just say stupid things, and do stupid things, and should be sorrier then anyone." He flashed her a sad and somewhat pathetic smile 'fore glancing down at the ice-cream dish that he was now toying with; swinging it 'round and 'round in circles. In a quiet voice, he mumbled, "You're one of those people that's great... You're one of those people that shouldn't be hanging around me 'cause I'm not great. I really am not..." Had he wanted her to hear that? He really didn't know...
