"So what did you want to tell me?" Jason asked, though Mandy caught him barely looking up.

"You think so?" Mandy asked, wanting to check if he actually meant it or was giving her a brush off, "Because I meant together as in, just us. " 

 

She saw him briefly look up.  "Yeah it's great." 

 

Still unsure, Mandy simply said,  "So, great. I will see you Friday?" 

 

But he was back in his video game.
