Croix wished he had more cigarettes. He had been really good rationing them lately, but the aftermath of Prier's little "question" period pretty much left him to finish off his already started pack in record time
( ... )
Maybe she'd ended up falling asleep for a bit, but the knock at the door stirred her enough awake, that she rolled over, looking at the door. It looked unlocked so she just rolled back over again, deciding to be lazy.
"It's open!" Prier called, sounding a bit even like she'd been asleep.
Only people who ever came to see her were the few people she knew. So... Croix? Or maaaaybe Flute. More likely Croix. Wait. Could it be Croix?
Oh why couldn't she just get up and get the door? It would make it really easier here. Still... "It's me," Croix said nonchalantly before actually coming in.
... and then the silence set in. Great, just great.
"Look, about what happened there--" he started, unsure of just HOW to finish it.
Given she'd figured she'd really pissed him off, she hadn't been sure he'd come talk to her any time soon, so she was a little surprised it was him. Although, she wasn't sure she was ready to face him.
Thus came the long silence, till he broke it. Sort of.
Pushing herself into a sitting position, she became rather interested in the bedspread, keeping her gaze diverted. "...I'm sorry. You can just forget about it, alright?" she offered.

It was probably better that way.
