"Shit. Don't cry. I'm sorry." His heart aches looking at her, his free hand curling into a helpless fist. "If it helps I..." He frowns again, cheeks flushing. "I only tried to kiss you in the first place because..." His stomach lurches sickly but he also can't stand that look on her face. "Because I like you, okay? I... Really like you." He swallows. "But. I've done this before, okay? I'm great at this and.. If you just want me to be your friend? That is more than enough for me, I promise."
