Rain:1039: Goofy Smile

Synopsis

Gavin observes Rudy smiling at his texts with Colette, and wonders to himself what is going on.

Author Notes

Well, Gavin's not wrong, per se. But he doesn't quite have it yet. It's certainly "not what he thinks", but I guess you could say he's thinking in the wrong direction. He probably does have all the information to figure it out though... >_>

Still, good on him for not pressing Rudy. These guys rag on each other a lot, but at least they're close enough to be respectful and read the room.

Transcript

I saw a lot of goofy smiles just now. Not what I would've expected from you while texting with a girl.
I-it's really not what you think...

Gavin is thinking to himself:

It's strange. I don't usually see him so flustered like this. He says "it's not what I think", but when he’s trying so hard to deny everything and can barely keep his voice from cracking while saying it, it's hard to believe it. And yet...
This is Rudy we're talking about!
Apart from Rain - a clear exception - I can't imagine Rudy actually falling for a girl.
I can’t deny I reeeeeally want to ask, but I’m sure he'll just get defensive again.
Wanna give Fighter Frogs another go?
Yeah, sure. Let’s do it!
