His expression of concern made her regret not leaning into it. Bursting into obnoxious tears could do wonders when it came to getting men to give her some space. For now, she blinked rapidly to try and get her face back to normal, and tried to press her press-on nail back on. It was the kind with the weird glue already stuck to the back of it, and it was going to end up popping back off sooner rather than later. She should have bought real nail glue. Hell, she should have gotten real acrylics, and enjoyed herself in a salon for a while.
"You're fine," she said, because she had enough sense not to say you're nothing, you're trash, I've been stabbed by worse and getting scared by you is beneath me. "You surprised me, that's all," she said, because he had. She looked down at herself, at the little keyhole of brown skin between cat ears that would have shown off her cleavage if she'd had more to show off. "Yeah," she agreed, hooking a finger into it to tug it open a little more. "I thought so, too."
