Katherin smiled at Makoto. "If I can figure it out I might take you up on that. Im not sure that I explain it to myself yet much less anyone else. Maybe after this weekend I will have a better idea." She hoped so. She scanned the crowd and was sad not to see Phoebe or any of her other friends. She supposed that Phoebe was with Ryan making wedding plans. Or talking to Nikolas. The though made her sad.

Makoto smiled at Katherin, encouraged that she would be taken up on her offer as much as to encourage Katherin that it will all work out. 

[b]"There is no pressure, you don't need to explain if you don't want to. I won't force you."[/b] Makoto maneuvered the other students with Katherin as they got in line to receive food. Quickly selecting their food the two looked out into the sea of people once again. [b]"It's pretty crowded in here, should we find somewhere else to eat?"[/b] Makoto asked, only seeing a few single seats here and there. [b]"I guess in a room this busy, Flood's reputation with the other students would come in handy."[/b] She joked, trying to make Katherin laugh.
