[Cassie knows he's awkward at the best of times, so she understands and doesn't mind the slight awkwardness to his movements. She's surprised at this at first, but the whole while extremely grateful for the comfort. She smiles, gently holding onto one his hands as she leans against him.]

The silence is nice, she's not really sure what to say either. Thinking about that is better for her than dwelling on their... not-so-secret secrets.]

Alcohol is always a good thing to do at times like this. It's really for kind of calming you down. Whenever I was back home, if one of my girlfriends broke up with some lad - the rest of us would say 'Come on, we'll have a night out on the town.'

You just sort of relax, get silly and talk about absolute rubbish when you do when you're drunk and just end up making one another laugh until we feel better.
