"So I'm forgiven for trying to burn down the bookshelf?" Kate asked with a grin. Although she was trying to make light of it, there was something a little serious in the question. Most of the time she genuinely didn't care what people thought of her, but she wanted certain people to like her, too. It was stupid that it was important to her, but it was, even if she'd never say it.

"I thought Jeff was gonna kill me," she admitted. "He had no idea what to do, he was just like, flailing." He hadn't flailed at all, but he certainly hadn't known what to do either and Kate couldn't help but be a little amused by that. Giving Jeff a hard time was always a little bit of fun, yet she'd been a little worried about that, too. There was all sorts of stupid shit she could do to test people, but eventually, they'd get sick of it. Eventually they'd take off.
