Sometimes, he felt like he'd gotten a lot better at handling social situations. Then sometimes... sometimes things like this happened, and he felt like he was back at square one, lost and confused and somehow making everyone angry.
But his friends were here, weren't they? He wasn't alone, and he wasn't going to give in to his fear! Determined, trying to draw courage from the familiar things around him, he gave her a smile.
"Yeah, so what? C'mon, it's not like there's not plenty of room for you, too! And it's a really good movie!"
