She didn't know this boy that well, but to Olette, meeting a person once automatically made them friends-- whether the other person felt so or not, and of course there were some special cases, but he'd seemed nice enough and seeing him succumb to whatever was troubling him was enough to splinter her heart a little.

So it was that Red was joined by a girl who crouched beside him. She made no motions to touch him, only studied him with concern apparent in bright green eyes before she spoke up.

"Hey... you want some hot chocolate?"

When in doubt, offer food.

Red was faintly startled by the sudden question. After he glanced to his side, he saw this familiar girl. They haven't talked that long, but the time they had together was still something Red will always remember. It was nice to meet more people, especially if they were thoughtful.

He felt a bit embarrassed that a girl he didn't know much saw him this way, however. It was enough to make him blush a bit and lower his head slightly. A hand moved up to his eyes and started rubbing them to rid of some droplets, but they kept coming softly.

"I'm sorry..." Red apologized first, not meaning her to see him like this. But after thinking over her question, that does sound good right now. Maybe if he swallowed enough hot drinks, he'd be able to calm down easier.

"And I can appreciate that," he added afterwards, and then tried to pull off a small smile.

Olette shook her head to his first response. She could never really understand why people apologized for crying. It was just a natural reaction to being sad, wasn't it? Except, having boys for best friends, the times they cried were rare enough.

"Come on," she said softly, straightening up and offering him a hand up while the other rummaged in a pocket for an orange handkerchief. "That sort of thing always cheers me up."

Red watched Olette offer her hand to him as well as that handkerchief. A part of him felt warmer already. She's such a nice person, indeed thoughtful. He tried to keep his smile and then gratefully nodded as he took the offered item. He had enough fight in him to stand on his own, though.

After his taller height had towered her, he eyed a little to the side as another type of blush crossed his face. It really is embarrassing for a growing boy to be seen by a girl... well, crying! However, Red managed a more comfortable look after he wiped his eyes a bit.

"Thanks..."

If she'd known that's what the blush was for (and she half-suspected, considering who her best friends were), Olette would have reassured him that she'd seen more boys cry in her lifetime than girls. But that was just because her friends knew she was safe to cry around, when they stopped being stubborn enough to allow themselves to do so. And Sora had cried not more than ten minutes after they'd met him.

Oh, well. She just smiled and shook her head. "You don't have to thank me. I just hoped I didn't interrupt."
