You are running, she would have argued had he not taken her by the wrist. She took short, quick steps to keep up with his determination in her heels. When he released her, she shoved her hands into her jacket pockets. They clinched into fists, once they were hidden by the material. A testament to her misplaced anger and her desire to touch him.
Her shoulders hunched, as he lectured her. She would have gone as far to say he was scolding her if she ever retold the story of this exchange. Not that she would. She didn't look at him as he continued. The only indication that was actually listening was the frown on her face and the hovering curls she couldn't get under control.
She wanted to smack away the finger he was pointing at her, but she didn't budge.
It finally occurred to her that she may have been acting selfish. Forcing her presence and the things she wanted onto Michael. When he very clearly had different notions. She lifted her face to turn that frown at him, inhaling sharply as if she had some thought of some biting comeback. Instead, she pressed her lips together so tightly that her piercings nearly came together. She made a thoughtful noise, as her expression melded into something less hostile.
"Fine," she responded, curtly, only moments after a silence had fallen between them. "Fine," she repeated with an emphasis that did nothing to clarify what exactly was fine. She took a few steps backward, so she could make a wide circle as she walked around him.
She turned to walk backwards a few paces, suspiciously close to floating. "I don't want anything from you," she said, almost defiantly. As if unwilling to admit she'd finally been defeated. She spread her hands in a gesture of surrender, flaring her jacket around her hips since they were still tucked inside the pockets.
"Thanks for the tacos," she continued, still walking away from him. "See you on Thursday, or whatever." She turned around, continuing on in the direction of the other strip mall and their cars.

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
