Um, well, last week methinks? I sort of lose track of time sometimes. Could have been longer, honestly...

[He shrugs and eyes her curiously]

I'm sorry, did I upset you?

[catblog]

[She shakes her head.]

No, it's just...

I'm not use to you taking an interesting in my family. At most, you...don't seem to care.

[ihaveanappforthat]

That's not true, I do care and I always have.

[Someone's frowning at you, Molly.]

I like you, you're one of my friends.

[catblog]

[Can you hear the explosion in Molly's brain? Did she just hear what she thought she heard?]

W-What...did you just say?

[ihaveanappforthat]

[His thin eyebrows raise in confusion.]

What part? I've always cared or that you're one of my friends?

Are you okay? I'm really starting to wonder if I should be walking you to the nurse's...

[catblog]

Both!

[She shouted before calming down a bit]

And yes...I am okay, I'm...I think I'm okay.

[ihaveanappforthat]

[His eyes widened as he flinched away from her.]

Erm...

Right, okay, yes... Sorry. I didn't mean to upset you...

[Do you feel good about yourself now, Molly!]

[catblog]

[She lets out a mumble]

No, you didn't. It's...a little odd seeing you like this.

[ihaveanappforthat]

You just shouted at me...

[A beat.]

Like what?

[catblog]

It's...just that you never called me a friend before...or that you cared either. So it's a little...shocking to me.

[ihaveanappforthat]

...I really think we should go to the medical area, yeah?

[catblog]

...

Moriarty, I'm fine, I think...I'll get use to this. [Even if it only lasts for so long]

It's really nice though.

[ihaveanappforthat]

You can call me Jim, you know.

[He watches her, still unsure if he's accepted that she's fine.]

It is?

[catblog]

...Jim it is.

And yes, it's nice to hear that you finally called me a friend...especially after um... [we broke up]
