At Leo’s Whatsapp, Chris had leant of the car and wolf-whistled her with a huge grin on his face. [color=FFD700]“Kalá geia ómorfi!”[/color] he called as he opened the door for her, [color=FFD700] “Get in loser, we’re going shopping”[/color] he quoted with a smile. Their journey passed with them both quizzing the other about the previous couple of days when they hadn’t actually seen one another. Chris grilled Leo on the media, Asher and Imani, her only response being that: the tabloids were stupid, that her mother was calling her non-stop about said tabloids, that Asher pretty much ditched her and then telling him that not one of these was a big deal. Whilst unconvinced, he was unable to press further as he faced is own barrage of questions about avoiding Henri (Leo had dragged their entire conversation from the welcome ball out of him), the lingering distance of Alejandro and his suspicions about Phillip. He had nothing to add about the former, but couldn’t help but think about the possibility of awkwardness at this second arranged activity. The latter, however, was still playing on his mind…

Yeah, they’d slept together. But they’d both agreed that feelings were not involved and Chris had accepted that one day their physical relationship would end. He had not thought that it would come at the cost of severing their friendship at the same time. [i]A childhood of memories built together and all seemingly for nothing. Maybe Ali just couldn’t separate the two like him and that was the reason he was so distant? Or was Chris himself not hiding his hurt as well as he thought and Ali thought he was upset at their fooling around coming to an end…? Eurgh… why was it all so fucked up? And what was going on with Ali and Phillip? If they were a thing, was it Phillip who didn’t like how close they had been and so was causing the rift? [/i]He blurted this all out to his best friend, but before she could reply, they had arrived at the carnival and his door was opened for him to step out onto the trampled dried grass. [color=FFD700] “Talk about it later yeah?”[/color]

Given the circumstances, he declined to offer Leo his arm or hand as he would normally do, and instead beckoned her over to the booth where he received his wristband and waited for everyone else with his hostess and his littlest witch, Cat. He looked up at the tallest coaster with a grin. Emotional drama aside, he was determined to have a good time today.
